Review drawing packages prior to submission to permitting agencies, consultants, vendors, subcontractors, and manufacturing teams.
Support projects through planning, building department review, plan check, and permit revisions.
Identify code compliance, constructibility, and coordination issues throughout documentation development.
Provide technical direction, redline guidance, and mentorship to drafting/documentation staff to ensure approved design intent and Azure standards are carried consistently through the construction documents
Help establish and maintain architectural documentation and QA/QC standards.
Perform periodic site reviews to verify construction aligns with approved documents.
Coordinate closely with design, engineering, manufacturing, pre-construction, and construction teams.
Qualifications:
10+ years of professional architectural experience.
Strong experience developing and reviewing construction documents.
Experience taking projects through permitting, plan check, construction documentation, and construction.
Experience with residential and commercial, multifamily, hospitality, industrial, or similarly complex projects.
Strong knowledge of building codes and permitting processes.
Demonstrated experience coordinating architectural and consultant data, structural, and MEP documentation.
Excellent plan-reading, redlining, QA/QC, and technical communication skills.
Strong understanding of construction methods and constructibility.
Experience leading or mentoring drafting staff.
Ability to work collaboratively across architecture, engineering, manufacturing, and construction teams.
Preferred Qualifications:
Current or previous architectural licensure.
California permitting and code experience.
Experience with modular, prefabricated, panelized, or manufactured construction.
Experience with commercial or systems-driven construction projects.
Hands-on construction or field coordination experience.
Familiarity with Rhino, SketchUp, Bluebeam, or similar design and markup software.
What We’re Looking For:
We are looking for someone who can quickly review a set of drawings and identify what is missing, inconsistent, noncompliant, or difficult to build.
The successful candidate will combine strong architectural judgment with practical construction knowledge and will help ensure that Azure's designs are accurately reflected as sets of coordinated, permit-ready and construction-detailed documentation.
