Job Description
Position Summary
We are seeking an experienced Design Project Manager to support our projects from concept through completion, someone equally comfortable producing construction documents in Revit/AutoCAD as they are running a job site inspection. This is a niche, hands-on role, and we're selective about who fills it.
Key Responsibilities
- Prepare and revise construction documents in Revit and AutoCAD, including layouts, detail drawings, and diagrams.
- Make drawing changes, redlines, and specification updates as projects develop.
- Prepare presentation drawings and plan options for clients.
- Track submittals, RFIs, and approvals; review shop drawings and estimates with architects, engineers, and contractors.
- Coordinate and lead project meetings; manage communications and action items.
- Conduct on-site inspections and field verification, documenting quality, code compliance, safety, and progress.
- Assist with permitting across local, state, and federal jurisdictions.
- Prepare and distribute weekly project updates with progress photos.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Architecture, Architectural Engineering, Drafting, Design, or related field (or equivalent experience).
- 10+ years of experience in architectural design, drafting, or construction project management.
- Strong proficiency in Revit and AutoCAD, plus Microsoft Office and MS Project.
- Solid understanding of drafting techniques, construction terminology, and general building code.
- Valid New York State driver's license and reliable transportation.
- Ability to work independently, manage multiple projects, and exercise sound judgment with minimal supervision.
- Familiarity with owner's representation or construction administration is a plus.
Work Environment & Physical Demands
- Regular field work, including site visits over uneven terrain and in variable weather, plus occasional lifting up to 25 to 50 lbs.
- Occasional travel and irregular hours around project milestones.
Why Join DJCA Cornerstone
- Family-oriented culture with mutual respect and teamwork.
- A seat on some of Rochester's most visible projects.
- Real autonomy in your role, with a clear path for growth as our project list expands.
DJCA Cornerstone LLC and its subsidiaries are committed to creating a diverse environment and are proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
