  • Flag zoning issues, setback conflicts, and structural concerns during feasibility
  • Lead permit applications from submittal through approval, working directly with California planning and building departments
  • Resolve plan check corrections and keep projects moving
  • Coordinate with structural engineers, MEP consultants, and contractors through preconstruction
  • Help build our drawing standards and QA processes as the team grows

What we're looking for
  • 5+ years of California residential design experience
  • Strong AutoCAD skills (Revit is a plus)
  • Working knowledge of CRC, Title 24, and California zoning and permitting
  • Comfortable talking directly with cities, consultants, and contractors
  • License welcome but not required
