Develop technical drawings, 3D models, and fabrication details for living walls, planters, and green façade systems. Design mounting, structural, and drainage interfaces for integrating Habitat Horticulture systems into a variety of architectural envelopes.

Contribute to mockups, testing, and prototype fabrication to evaluate new systems and materials. Support R&D efforts for evolving products, helping refine details for manufacturing and installation. Assist with quantity takeoffs, submittal packages, and as‑built documentation. Participate in field visits and coordination meetings to help resolve technical challenges during installation. Maintain and improve internal CAD standards, detail libraries, and documentation practices. Qualifications

Proficiency in AutoCAD and/or Revit. Strong understanding of building envelopes, waterproofing, and structural coordination. Demonstrated ability to translate design concepts into fabrication‑ready details. Strong design aesthetic with sensitivity to proportion, materials, and finish quality. Hands‑on experience with mockups, fabrication, or construction environments. Clear communication, organizational, and problem‑solving skills.
