Contribute to Team Learning and Collaboration
• You build your skills and support team learning through structured training journeys, mentorship, and hands-on project experience.
• You elevate team clarity by sharing observations, questions, and lessons learned.
• You strengthen documentation quality by keeping notes, tools, and modeling information accurate and up to date.
Improve the TEECOM System
• You build strong technical habits by applying TEECOM’s templates, standards, and workflows as you learn discipline fundamentals.
• You support coordinated project delivery by maintaining accurate markups, models, notes, and documentation.
• You reinforce consistency by following established processes and seeking clarity when expectations are unclear.

What Success in this Position Looks Like

• You produce accurate and organized Revit models, narratives, calculations, markups, and supporting documentation that strengthen coordinated project delivery.
• You respond quickly to feedback, incorporate revisions effectively, and show improvement in technical and production skills.
• You maintain complete, timely documentation—including meeting notes, markups, and updates to project tools.
• You maintain a healthy model structure by following TEECOM’s file naming, view template, workset, and linking standards.
• You develop awareness of spatial coordination, device placement logic, and how technology systems integrate into architectural and MEP environments.
• You complete assigned tasks on schedule and communicate early when risks or delays arise.
• You apply TEECOM’s standards, templates, and processes consistently.
• You actively participate in training journeys, shadowing opportunities, and hands-on learning that strengthen technical capability.
• You communicate professionally and work effectively with internal team members and project partners.
• You maintain utilization targets and complete daily time and expense entries accurately.
• You model TEECOM’s Core Values—Care, Trust, and Value—through responsiveness, teamwork, curiosity, and integrity.

• Participate in project meetings, coordination sessions, and daily huddles to stay aligned with priorities, risks, and delivery needs.
• Implement markups and delegated production tasks provided by senior engineers and production staff.
• Maintain accurate task tracking, documentation, and design updates to support team visibility and coordinated delivery.
• Ask questions to clarify modeling direction, scope changes, or design expectations and apply feedback to improve technical execution.
• Perform assigned design, modeling, coordination, and production work while maintaining organized files, notes, and updates that reflect current design intent.
• Respond promptly to team requests and maintain accurate daily time entries and notes to support delivery accountability.
As Needed
• Support site visits or existing conditions verification alongside senior team members.
• Assist with design coordination by reviewing models and drawings from other disciplines.
• Participate in basic clash detection or coordination reviews under guidance.
• Prepare diagrams, documentation, or graphics for internal and client deliverables.
• Assist with research, product evaluations, and specification support as directed.
• Contribute to updates or refinements of production templates, tools, or workflows under supervision.

Supervisory / Mentorship / Training Responsibilities

• Supervisory: None. Designer I roles focus on developing discipline fundamentals, production workflows, and documentation standards under guidance from senior team members.
• Mentorship: Receive day-to-day coaching and direction from your Mentor, production team, and senior engineers.
• Training: Actively participate in structured training journeys, mentorship, and hands-on learning to strengthen discipline fundamentals.

Experience and Qualifications

• Education: BS in Engineering (Electrical preferred), Architecture, or a related field; or equivalent experience in design, drafting, or technology systems.
• Experience: 0–2 years of experience in the AEC industry, design or technology systems, technology systems contracting, field or construction site exposure, or related professional or academic environments.
• Preferred: Exposure to Revit, AutoCAD, or other drafting/modeling tools; familiarity with construction documents or the building design process.
• Exposure to BIM coordination concepts (model linking, worksets, clash identification) is a plus.
• Familiarity with Navisworks and BIM 360 / Autodesk Construction Cloud is helpful but not required.
• Ability to learn new software, follow workflows, and apply feedback to improve accuracy and clarity of drawings and documentation.
• Strong organizational and communication skills with the ability to track tasks, take clear notes, and collaborate effectively.
• Foundational understanding of technology systems (Telecom/ICT, Audiovisual, Security, Acoustics, Network, Wi-Fi, and other technology disciplines) is a plus, but not required.
