Project: Civil engineering drafting support for a new single-family home on a vacant, downsloping lot at 2927 Alhambra Drive, Belmont, CA. We're working with an architect to finalize a plan set for submittal to the City of Belmont under its Tier 3 Single Family Design Review (SFDR) process. Our in-house licensed civil engineer will review and stamp the final work — we need someone skilled to produce the drawings and carry them through revisions.

What we have already: A complete architectural drawing set (site plan, floor plans, elevations, sections, details) and a boundary/topographic survey (sheet G101). Grading and retaining walls are shown as design intent only — not yet an engineered plan.

What we need first:

Grading plan (existing/proposed grades, cut and fill areas)
Drainage plan (including impact to downhill properties, per Belmont's hillside requirements)
Driveway plan and profile
Cut-and-fill calculations
C.3 stormwater checklist (San Mateo County Drainage Manual)

Deliverables in both editable AutoCAD (.dwg) and PDF format.

How this works: You'll do the primary drafting and coordinate directly with our architect to keep the grading/site plan aligned with the architectural design, and with our in-house licensed engineer, who will direct revisions and ultimately review and stamp the drawings. Expect several rounds of revisions as the design is refined. Little to no direct contact with the City is expected at this stage — that's handled on our end.

Good fit if you:

-Have strong AutoCAD Civil 3D skills and hands-on experience drafting grading, drainage, and driveway plans for residential hillside sites

-Are comfortable taking technical direction from a licensed engineer and iterating through multiple rounds of revisions

-Have worked on projects that went through a city design review or grading-permit process (even if you weren't the engineer of record)

To start: Please share relevant hillside/grading drafting examples, your availability/turnaround for revisions, and how you'd like to structure fees (lump sum vs. hourly). Happy to share the current drawing set and site survey with anyone we move forward with.

What I need help with:
-Technical interior drawings based on moodboards and design direction
-Detailed joinery/shop drawings (wardrobes, TV units, wall panels, cabinetry, etc.)
-Accurate detailing of new classic elements (mouldings, trims, wall compositions)
-Clear, implementation ready documentation for contractors/fabricators
-Coordination of proportions and finishes at a detailed level

What I’m looking for:
-Strong experience in interior technical drawings and joinery details
-Very good eye for detail and proportions, especially in classical / luxury interiors
-Ability to translate moodboards into precise technical output
-Knowledge of fabrication constraints and construction logic
-Autocad / relevant software proficiency

Important:
To apply, please include a sample of a joinery unit drawing with well-developed detailing (this is essential for selection)

Looking forward to working with someone detail-oriented who understands the balance between design intent and technical execution.

We're looking for an experienced Architectural & Structural Engineer to prepare permit-ready drawing packages for residential and light commercial projects. You'll be responsible for producing accurate, code-compliant architectural and structural documentation that gets approved by the building department with minimal revisions.

Responsibilities:

Prepare architectural and structural drawing sets for permit submission
Produce structural calculations and PE-stamped documents
Design foundations, framing, beams, columns, and connections
Respond to plan check corrections quickly and accurately
Coordinate with architects, contractors, and clients as needed

Requirements:

Licensed PE (Professional Engineer) able to stamp drawings in [insert state/country]
Proven experience with permit submissions and plan check processes
Proficiency in AutoCAD and/or Revit; ETABS, STAAD Pro, or SAP2000 a plus
Strong portfolio of approved permit sets (residential and/or commercial)
Clear, responsive communication

To Apply: Please share 2–3 examples of permit-approved projects you've stamped, your state licensure, and your typical turnaround time for a standard residential structural package.

We are seeking an experienced Electrical and Electronics Engineer with expertise in PLC Programming, AutoCAD Electrical, and Electrical Design. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in Motor Control and Industrial Automation and will be responsible for designing and implementing efficient electrical systems. You should be able to provide innovative solutions and work collaboratively with our team to optimize our projects. If you have a passion for electrical engineering and a keen eye for detail, we would love to hear from you!

We need a dimensioned technical drawing package for a City of Palo Alto building permit submittal, covering a small wall-mounted temporary sign.

Scope of work:
- Exterior building elevation showing the sign's placement on the building (corner-mounted, two faces)
- Section-cut / attachment detail showing how the sign panel physically connects to a brick wall (anchor type, bracket, embedment depth, etc.)
- Drawings must be to scale, dimensioned, and formatted per the city's submittal guidelines: landscape orientation, exported PDF (not scanned), 6" blank strip on the cover sheet for city approval stamps, 4"x6" stamp block on each drawing sheet, and bookmarked/indexed pages

Project details:
- Sign: single 48"x96" 1/8" panel, folded to wrap a building corner, mounted directly to brick
- Lightweight, well under 200 lbs — structural calculations likely not required, but let us know if you believe a PE stamp is needed for this scope
- We'll provide the approved sign mock-up, dimensions, and site photos for reference

What we're looking for:
- Experience producing permit-ready drawings for city planning/building departments (ideally California, but not required)
- Proficiency in AutoCAD or similar
- Quick turnaround — this is a small, well-defined task, not an ongoing engagement

Please include examples of past permit drawing work in your proposal.

Remote Residential Concept Designer

Decks • Additions • Outdoor Living • Design-Build

About Us

Fortitude Builders & Restoration is a rapidly growing Design-Build, Remodeling, Roofing, and Insurance Restoration company serving homeowners throughout North Carolina.

We’re building a technology-driven construction company that combines outstanding customer service with efficient systems and automation.

We’re looking for a creative residential designer who can help homeowners visualize their projects quickly while supporting our sales team.

⸻

Position Overview

Our sales representatives meet homeowners in person to understand their goals, gather measurements, take photographs, create rough field sketches, and document the existing conditions using CompanyCam.

Once that information has been collected, your job begins.

Your responsibility is to transform our field documentation into clean, professional concept drawings that help homeowners visualize their projects and allow our estimating department to prepare accurate pricing.

These are NOT permit-ready architectural plans.

They are preliminary concept drawings intended to help homeowners make design decisions before moving into a paid design phase.

⸻

Typical Projects

You’ll help create concept drawings for:

* Custom decks
* Covered porches
* Screened porches
* Outdoor living spaces
* Room additions
* Kitchens
* Bathrooms
* Basement remodels
* Exterior renovations

⸻

What We’ll Provide

For each project we’ll upload:

* CompanyCam photos
* Field measurements
* Hand sketches
* Existing conditions
* Property photos
* Homeowner notes
* Design goals
* Inspiration photos (when available)

⸻

Your Deliverables

Typically within 72 hours, we’d like you to provide:

* Dimensioned concept floor plan
* Simple site layout (when needed)
* 2–4 homeowner-friendly 3D renderings
* PDF presentation suitable for homeowner review
* One round of minor revisions

The objective is to help homeowners visualize the project—not produce construction documents.

⸻

Software Experience

Experience with one or more of the following is preferred:

* SketchUp
* Chief Architect
* AutoCAD
* Revit
* SoftPlan
* Chief Architect Interiors
* Lumion
* Enscape
* Twinmotion
* Other residential design software

⸻

Long-Term Vision

We’re not looking for someone to complete a single project.

We’re looking for someone who can become Fortitude’s Remote Residential Concept Designer and grow with our company.

As our sales volume increases, we envision sending multiple concept-design projects each week.

Eventually, this role may evolve into a larger design leadership position within our Design-Build division.

⸻

Important Boundary

Our preliminary concept drawings are intended solely to:

* Help homeowners visualize ideas
* Generate accurate cost estimates
* Assist our sales team in closing projects

If a homeowner wishes to move forward with engineering, permit drawings, structural calculations, multiple design revisions, or detailed construction documents, the project will transition into a separate paid Design Agreement.

Understanding that distinction is very important.

⸻

Preferred Qualifications

We’re looking for someone who:

* Has experience designing residential projects
* Understands deck construction and outdoor living spaces
* Can think creatively while remaining practical
* Communicates well in English
* Spanish is a strong plus
* Can consistently meet 48–72 hour turnaround times
* Enjoys long-term working relationships

⸻

Compensation

This is a per-project contract position—not hourly.

Please include your fixed price for each of the following:

* Simple deck concept
* Covered porch
* Screened porch
* Room addition
* Kitchen remodel
* Bathroom remodel

If your pricing varies based on size or complexity, please explain your pricing structure.

⸻

To Apply

Please include:

* Portfolio of residential work
* Sample concept drawings
* Software you use
* Typical turnaround time
* Per-project pricing
* Country and time zone
* Whether you speak Spanish (preferred but not required)
