Architectural Drafter - Residential Construction (Higharc)
About The Position
United Built Homes is seeking an Architectural Drafter to join our team, focused on developing construction documents for homes we build across Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma. This is not a traditional drafting role. We are actively transitioning our plan development and construction documentation into Higharc, a modern, parametric home design platform that allows us to move faster, reduce errors, and bring consistency to our plans at scale. If you have residential drafting experience and are interested in working with a more advanced, system-driven approach to home design, this role will be a good fit. The role involves developing and finalizing construction documents for sold homes, working within Higharc to generate and refine plan sets, and reviewing and validating drawings for accuracy, completeness, and buildability. You will also coordinate with internal teams to ensure plans align with customer selections and field requirements, and help identify and resolve edge cases. This role is different from most drafting roles as it is about building a system within Higharc, where plans are configurable, standardized, and connected to pricing and construction logic. We are building a scalable, semi-custom home platform, and drafting is a critical part of making that work.
Requirements
- Experience with residential construction drawings (required)
- Experience with AutoCAD, Revit, or similar CAD software
- Strong attention to detail and understanding of how homes are actually built
- Ability to work independently and as part of a team to meet deadlines
- Willingness to learn and work within a structured, system-driven design environment
