Job Title: Survey CAD Technician

We’re looking for a detail‑oriented Survey CAD Technician who enjoys transforming survey data into accurate, high‑quality drawings that support real-world projects. In this role, you’ll use AutoCAD to convert field measurements into plats, maps, and exhibits that guide land development, infrastructure, and construction projects across the region.

You’ll collaborate closely with surveyors, engineers, and project managers—and see your work make a visible impact in the places people live, work, and gather.


What You’ll Do

  • Produce survey drawings and exhibits, including boundary, ALTA/NSPS, topographic, and as‑built surveys
  • Create site plans, right‑of‑way maps, and subdivision plats
  • Interpret and reduce field data and survey notes into accurate CAD deliverables
  • Build surface models, contours, and digital terrain models
  • Perform basic survey calculations (COGO, areas, curves, elevations)
  • Apply drafting standards and quality control procedures
  • Update drawings based on redlines and field revisions
  • Assist with survey documentation and project records as needed

What You Bring

  • Proficiency with AutoCAD
  • Working knowledge of land surveying concepts and terminology
  • Ability to read survey notes, plats, and construction plans
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage deadlines

Bonus: Experience with Civil 3D, Carlson, or MicroStation, or relevant coursework in surveying, geomatics, or civil drafting.


Why You’ll Love Working Here

You’ll join a well‑established, growing multidisciplinary civil engineering firm with a strong people‑first culture and offices across the Carolinas, Florida, and Texas. The firm offers:

  • A collaborative, supportive team with mentorship and growth opportunities
  • Projects with real, visible community impact
  • Long‑term stability and career advancement potential

If you’re looking to grow your skills, contribute to meaningful projects, and build a long‑term career, this is an opportunity worth applying for.
