Key job responsibilities

  • Own end-to-end composite design delivery for a high-impact program, producing accurate 2D/3D designs using AutoCAD and Revit
  • Manage project and program timelines, tracking deliverables, surfacing risks early, and keeping stakeholders informed
  • Collaborate closely and continuously with design teams to align on scope, resolve blockers, and accelerate delivery
  • Translate operational requirements into composite designs that meet construction and launch standards
  • Support clash detection and under-the-roof design validation to reduce rework and protect capital investment
  • Communicate proactively with business partners to maintain visibility on program status and design decisions
  • Adapt quickly as project requirements evolve, maintaining quality without sacrificing speed

A day in the life

Your day is split between doing and managing. In the morning, you might be heads-down in Revit working through a composite, and by afternoon you're in a review with design partners, tracking open items and making sure nothing is blocking delivery. You're the person who knows where every deliverable stands, what's at risk, and what needs to happen next.

You communicate clearly, make quick decisions, and bring people with you. When the timeline tightens — and it will — you stay focused, stay collaborative, and find a way through.

Our team supports a diverse portfolio of building types including mixed-use fulfillment, pharmacy, Hazmat, Air, and Leo operations.
