JOB OVERVIEW

Facade / Cladding Shop Drawing Drafter

Built Exteriors is looking for a highly skilled AutoCAD drafter with facade / exterior cladding shop drawing experience to support our U.S. commercial construction projects.

This is a technical drafting role, not a general VA position.

Your main responsibility will be taking architectural plans and creating clear, professional shop drawings for our exterior scopes.

What You’ll Work On

Our exterior systems include:

Fiber cement siding and panels
EIFS / stucco
ACM and metal panels
Sheet metal
Soffits and fascia
Weather barriers and flashings
Other exterior cladding systems

Typical shop drawing work includes:

Exterior elevations
Wall sections
Window head, jamb, and sill details
Door and storefront details
Material transitions
Inside and outside corners
Parapets
Base-of-wall conditions
Soffits and fascia
Flashing / WRB details
Field installation drawings

The type of work we need is similar to the shop drawing package we use internally, with detailed elevations, material legends, transition details, opening conditions, parapets, flashing, WRB relationships, and trim profiles.

What We’re Looking For

You must have:

Strong professional AutoCAD experience
Experience producing shop drawings or detailed construction drawings
Strong ability to read architectural plans, elevations, sections, and details
Ability to create details, not just trace drawings
Good understanding of how building materials transition and connect
Strong attention to detail
Good written English

Strong preference will be given to candidates with experience in:

Facade / cladding shop drawings
ACM / metal panels
Fiber cement
EIFS / stucco
Sheet metal
Curtain wall / storefront
Waterproofing / building envelope systems
U.S. commercial construction drawings

Revit, Bluebeam, PlanSwift, and Procore experience are a plus, but not required.

Portfolio Required

A technical drafting portfolio is required.

Please include examples of drawings you personally produced, especially:

Shop drawings
Exterior elevations
Wall sections
Construction details
Facade or cladding drawings
Fabrication or installation drawings

Applications without a portfolio will not be reviewed.

How to Apply

Please submit all of the following:

Resume
Technical drafting portfolio
2–4 minute video introduction
Years of AutoCAD experience
Types of facade/cladding systems you have worked with
Software you are proficient in
Expected hourly or monthly compensation
Portfolio Requirement

Your portfolio should include examples of technical drawings you personally produced, ideally including:

Shop drawings
Exterior elevations
Wall sections
Construction details
Facade or cladding drawings
Fabrication or installation drawings

Applications without a technical drafting portfolio will not be reviewed.

Video Introduction Requirement

Please submit a 2–4 minute video introducing yourself.

Briefly tell us:

Your professional drafting background
Your experience with AutoCAD
The types of facade/cladding systems you have worked with
The types of shop drawings you have produced
Why this role interests you

A simple webcam or phone video is fine. Loom, Dropbox, or an unlisted YouTube link all work.

Applications without a video introduction will not be reviewed.

Why Join Us

We are building a long-term remote technical team and want this person to become a key drafting resource for our projects.

If you are strong in AutoCAD, understand construction drawings, and enjoy creating detailed, buildable shop drawings, we would like to hear from you.
