Reality Capture Field Lead (Surveyor)

Overview

We are seeking a dynamic full-time Reality Capture Field Lead to join our exciting team of professionals in Pittsburgh. Cadnetics has spent over 32 years empowering its employees with our core values: Driven, Reliable, Accurate, Fair, and Team (D.R.A.F.T.). As a Field Surveyor, you’ll work hands-on in the field at project sites using advanced laser scanners and cameras to capture detailed 3D data of buildings, sites, and structures. This role involves digitally freezing the real world so architects, engineers, and designers can work with the data back in the office.
