  • Assist with the administration and customization of AEC software by maintaining configurations, templates, tool palettes, and standards—primarily in Autodesk Civil 3D (experience with MicroStation/ORD is a plus).
  • Support and improve Osborn’s AutoCAD/Civil 3D configurations and custom tools, including:
    • Coordinating updates and deployments for licensing components (as needed).
