BIM/CAD Design Technologist — Aquatic Structures You translate concept sketches into buildable reality. On a typical day, you might open Revit to refine a surge tank layout for a competition pool, switch to AutoCAD to finalize plan and elevation sheets, and jump on a quick call with an engineer to confirm tolerances before pushing a clean revision set to the field team. Precision, organization, and code awareness guide every line you draw.
