Job Description

Structural Steel Detailer – Commercial Retrofits & New Build Design

Boston, MA | Full-Time | Office-Based

Position Summary A growing structural systems firm is seeking a detail-oriented Structural Steel Detailer to produce and coordinate shop drawings, framing plans, and fabrication details for steel structures. This role offers a direct impact on the construction process—collaborating with engineers, fabricators, and erectors to bring projects from concept to completion.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who thrives in technical drafting, values accuracy, and enjoys solving complex steel detailing challenges in a collaborative, design-build environment.

We’re a professional yet close-knit team that prioritizes clarity, quality, and long-term growth. If you’re organized, strong-willed, and committed to precision, this could be your next step.

Basic Qualifications

2–3 years of experience producing steel framing plans and fabrication details

Associate’s degree in Engineering (minimum); Bachelor’s preferred

Proficiency in AutoCAD drafting

Familiarity with MS Word and Excel

Strong communication skills and ability to work in a team environment

Ability to interpret contract documents and resolve framing situations

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with SDS / 2 or other 3D drafting software

Background in detailing CMU, foundations, and metal stud systems alongside steel framing

Problem-solving ability to address complex structural detailing issues

Organized, clear communicator with a professional presence

Key Responsibilities

Prepare accurate shop drawings and steel framing plans for commercial projects

Detail steel framing components with structural accuracy and constructability in mind

Collaborate with engineers, project managers, fabricators, and erectors to ensure coordinated results

Develop solutions within a design-build environment to support real-world construction

Create structural plans for foundations, CMU, and related components in conjunction with steel framing

Participate in team reviews to uphold detailing standards and project deadlines

What Makes This Role Stand Out

Career Growth : Direct involvement in the design-build process with advancement potential

Impactful Work : Your drawings will directly guide fabrication and erection in the field

Stability : Consistent project pipeline and strong client relationships

Benefits Package : 401(k), medical, vision, and life insurance coverage

Collaborative Team : Work alongside experienced engineers and detailers who value professionalism and execution

We are actively hiring — interviews are moving quickly. Apply now by submitting your resume. Please include relevant project and software experience to help us expedite review.
