Job Description
Turner & Townsend is looking for a BIM Draftsperson / 3D Visualization Specialist to support one of our Electrical Vehicle clients, who is expanding their Design Studio and looking for a BIM & Visual Communications Specialist to serve as the visual and digital execution engine of the team.
This is not a passive drafting role where you just receive redlines. In this role, you are the translator of spatial innovation. You will bridge the gap between technical standards requirements, design layouts, and polished visual communications. Whether you are building Revit models and families or creating highly stylized, publication-ready diagrams for our global playbooks for use within the Brightspot CMS, your work directly aids in establishing the visual language of our global physical footprint.
We operate with two core focuses in this role—standards modeling and graphics and project specific modeling —allowing you to showcase both your advanced technical Revit capabilities and your graphic design sensibilities.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
Standards Visual Communications & Graphics:
- Generate high-quality, professional, and intuitive visual graphics, diagrams, and illustrative layouts (using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign) to accompany technical standards and written narratives in our web-based Content Management System (Brightspot CMS).
- Work with team Architects and Engineers to turn dense technical concepts (such as EV charging clearances, vehicle turning radii, and safety containment zones) into clean, digestible, and visually compelling infographics and spatial matrices.
- Ensure all visual standards materials adhere to corporate graphic guidelines, establishing a sophisticated and cohesive aesthetic across all digital and print A/E standards documentation.
BIM content & Family Creation:
- Assist in curating and maintaining our master architectural detail libraries and template files, ensuring all draft assets are updated and synchronized with changing A/E standards and design criteria.
- Build, test, and catalog parametric Revit families, equipment blocks, and standardized graphic components (such as EV charging hardware, fleet servicing equipment, and modular building details) to populate our master library.
- Assist the BIM Manager in maintaining and auditing Revit master files, standard details, and shared parameters to ensure perfect digital consistency.
Agile Internal Design & Production Support:
- Work with the project lead to generate lightning-fast schematic spatial layouts and site-specific documentation in Revit and AutoCAD to scope operational requirements for new sites.
- Draft site-specific schematic design scope packages, floor plans, equipment blocks, and elevations under the guidance of our Lead Project Architects.
- Actively implement core brand elements, finishes, and dimensional standards directly into Revit models, ensuring zero "standards drift" during rapid design iterations.
- Execute technical markups from architects, designers, traffic planners, and MEP engineers as needed, ensuring drawings are fully coordinated and clash-free before handoff to external partners.
- Work with team leads to seamlessly translate field-tested layout modifications back into standard BIM components, preventing technical drift.
- SOX control responsibilities may be part of this role, which are to be adhered to where applicable.
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s or Associate’s degree in architecture, Graphic Design, Architectural Technology, or equivalent practical experience.
- 3–5+ years of experience in architectural production, detailing, or graphic coordination within a professional A/E or corporate design studio.
- Advanced Proficiency in Autodesk Revit & AutoCAD: Proven hands-on capability in architectural modeling, detail drafting, sheet set composition, and Revit view/parameter organization.
- Advanced proficiency in 3D rendering and AI supported postproduction processes.
- Advanced Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop): A strong portfolio showcasing clean layout design, diagramming, infographic creation, and visual standards communication.
- Proven ability to read and interpret complex architectural drawings, structural details, and engineering schematics.
- Demonstrated success working in a high-volume, rapid-turnaround environment with multiple concurrent projects.
- Candidates should be prepared to share a portfolio of modeled projects, graphic designs, and renderings.
PREFERRED EXPERIENCE & CERTIFICATIONS:
Preferred Certifications:
- Autodesk Certified Professional (ACP): Revit Architecture (Highly desired to validate professional-grade modeling capability).
- Adobe Certified Professional (Illustrator, InDesign, or Photoshop) (Demonstrates professional visual layouts and graphics standards).
Preferred Experience:
- Experience designing templates, assets, or playbooks for Content Management Systems (Brightspot CMS) or digital wikis.
- Familiarity with digital whiteboarding tools (Miro, Mural) and agile task tracking (Asana).
- Experience with Revit Family Creation (building basic parametric Revit components and coordinating types).
- Background in corporate retail rollouts, hospitality, industrial site planning, or infrastructure design.

Who's Hiring
What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in draftsperson jobs.
- Proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit, or equivalent CAD software
- Associate degree or technical certificate in drafting technology or engineering
- Two or more years of drafting experience in a relevant discipline
- Ability to read and interpret engineering or architectural drawings and specifications
- Familiarity with industry drawing standards such as ASME Y14.5 or AIA conventions
- Experience with 3D modeling tools such as SolidWorks, Civil 3D, or Inventor
Tips for Your Draftsperson Job Search
Tailor your resume to each discipline
Architectural, mechanical, and civil drafting each have distinct software stacks and deliverable types. Customize your resume to match the specific discipline in the job posting, calling out the CAD platforms, drawing standards, and project types most relevant to that role.
Showcase your portfolio with real drawings
Employers want to see actual deliverables, not just a list of tools you've used. Include annotated floor plans, detail sheets, or 3D models from real or academic projects, and label each sample with the software version and drawing standard it was produced to.
List every CAD certification you hold
Autodesk certifications for AutoCAD, Revit, or Inventor carry real weight in draftsperson screenings. Add the certification name, issuing body, and year earned in a dedicated credentials section so recruiters and automated systems can find them quickly.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists draftsperson openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare for a skills-based technical screen
Many draftsperson interviews include a timed drawing task or a live redlining exercise. Practice producing clean, dimensioned drawings under time pressure and review company-specific style guides or title block formats before your screen.
Negotiate using project scope, not just title
When discussing offers, ask about the complexity and scale of drawings you'll own, since that shapes your growth and portfolio more than title alone. Use that scope to anchor your counteroffer around the technical responsibility the role actually carries.
Draftsperson Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most draftspersons?
The companies hiring the most draftspersons right now include DSLD Homes, CEC Group, and J. Bolton Design, with the largest share of openings in Ohio, Florida, and Texas, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand is strongest in architecture, civil engineering, and industrial manufacturing firms.
How many draftsperson jobs are remote?
About 25% of draftsperson openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with remote arrangements most common in BIM coordination, electrical schematic drafting, and documentation roles where site access is not required. Roles tied to physical construction sites or manufacturing floors are more likely to be on-site.
How do you become a draftsperson?
Most draftspersons start by completing an associate degree or certificate program in drafting technology, computer-aided design, or a related engineering field, where they learn CAD software, geometric dimensioning, and drawing standards. Building a portfolio of annotated sample drawings, earning an Autodesk certification, and applying for entry-level or junior drafter roles are the typical next steps toward landing a first position.
How do you get hired as a draftsperson with little experience?
Employers often hire entry-level draftspersons on the strength of a solid portfolio rather than years of work history. Focus on producing clean, well-annotated drawings from coursework or personal projects, highlight any internship or co-op drafting work, and apply to firms in sectors like residential construction or small engineering consultancies that are more open to training junior talent on the job.
What does the draftsperson interview process look like?
A typical draftsperson interview begins with a phone or video screen to review your background and software experience, followed by a technical stage where you may be asked to interpret existing drawings, identify errors, or complete a short drafting task. Final-round conversations often involve meeting the project lead or design manager and walking through your portfolio to discuss your process and the standards you applied.
Where can I find and apply to draftsperson jobs?
You can find and apply to draftsperson jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States in one place. Search the listings to find roles that match your discipline and experience level, then apply directly to each one that fits.
