Job Description

Are you an early-career Civil 3D Designer ready to move beyond drafting and contribute to shaping communities that people love to live in?

Our client is a premier developer of attainable housing communities across the Southeast, creating resort-style, nature-immersed neighborhoods designed for people who value living over maintaining. They build right-sized homes within exceptional lifestyle communities-where thoughtful design, meaningful connections, and affordability coexist with a sense of exclusivity.

As the organization continues to scale, they are intentionally bringing key design capabilities in-house to support faster iteration, deeper collaboration, and long-term growth.

The Opportunity

This is a foundational, net-new role for an early-career AutoCAD Civil 3D Designer who wants to grow alongside a mission-driven development firm. You’ll work closely with an outsourced civil engineering partner—mirroring select responsibilities while supporting concept development, visualization, and documentation. Over time, this role will expand in scope and ownership, with a clear path toward increased responsibility as internal design capabilities mature.

You’ll play a hands-on role in shaping master-planned communities that balance beauty, functionality, and constructability—contributing directly to how people experience everyday living.

What You’ll Do

Design & Documentation

  • Develop community master plans using AutoCAD Civil 3D, supporting residential layouts, circulation, open space, and amenity planning
  • Produce 3D renderings and visualizations that bring neighborhood concepts and lifestyle experiences to life
  • Support construction documentation, including site plans, grading concepts, and utility layouts for internal review and external coordination
  • Collaboration & Coordination

    • Work closely with outsourced civil engineering partners to:
    • Prepare and iterate concepts prior to formal handoff
    • Review, redline, and QA third-party drawings
    • Incorporate feedback and maintain drawing consistency
    • Collaborate with internal development, planning, and leadership teams to align design intent with business goals
  • Growth & Ownership

    • Gradually assume increased responsibility for internal drawings and design coordination
    • Help establish internal standards, workflows, and best practices for in-house civil design support
    • Grow into a more senior design role as the company continues to scale its platform

    What You Bring

    Required

    • 1–3+ years of professional experience in civil or site design
    • Proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D
    • Exposure to residential land development and/or master-planned communities
    • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple design iterations
    • Comfort working in a fast-moving, collaborative, growth-oriented environment

    Preferred

    • Experience with SketchUp, Revit, Lumion, Twinmotion, or Rhino
    • Familiarity with single-family or townhome developments
    • Early exposure to construction documentation or coordination with external consultants

    Why This Role

    • Ground-floor opportunity to help build in-house design capability
    • Clear growth path as responsibilities expand over time
    • Mission-driven organization focused on attainable housing and quality of life
    • Hands-on exposure to real-world development projects , not just drafting tasks
    • Work on communities that blend resort-style amenities, nature, and affordability
