Supporting internal departments through project delivery, including occasional site supervision or monitoring

Familiar with relevant design codes and standards
*
Comfortable communicating technical information across teams and clients

CAD proficiency and experience with design software (e.g. WALLAP, PLAXIS, Repute, etc.)
*
Chartership (or working toward it) is a strong advantage
This is a hybrid position, with regular in-person collaboration required at one of three regional offices.
