Job description

At Jacobs, we’re partnering across the globe to create the best project outcomes by maximizing the design, digital technology, and support capabilities of our Global Integrated Delivery (GID) teammates. By joining Jacobs, you’ll commit to supporting and engaging with these teams, as we work to build a company like no other. The Intermediate Structural Designer will be working alongside our engineers in developing designs in BIM/CAD and delivering the drawings through various stages of the project - from preliminary design through to and including the tender period with possible support into Construction.

The ideal candidate should have experience in independently developing contract/construction drawings sets for structural buildings, be aware of and actively implement best practice CAD standards (in terms of organization of the drawing and annotations, and correct use of levels, parts/families, etc.). The candidate should have sufficient knowledge in structural systems and spatial concepts to generate drawings from basic sketches or markups.

As an intermediate and independent designer you will be expected to check your own work for quality and completeness, and you will be required to work with other discipline teams to coordinate the drawings and BIM.
