We're looking for an experienced Survey Technician who enjoys turning field data into accurate, high-quality deliverables that keep construction projects moving. This position is ideal for someone who is highly proficient in AutoCAD Civil 3D and has experience supporting construction surveying operations through office-based drafting, data processing, stakeout preparation, and as-built production.

You'll work closely with Survey Project Managers and field crews while taking ownership of the technical drafting and data preparation that supports a wide variety of civil and construction projects.

  • Process and analyze survey data using AutoCAD Civil 3D
  • Prepare stakeout sketches, point files, coordinate files, and DXF files for construction layout
  • Produce accurate and professional As-Built drawings
  • Calculate earthwork volumes and material quantities
  • Prepare cut sheets and field sketches for survey crews
  • Organize and manage survey drawings using Xrefs, Dynamic Blocks, Layers, and proper CAD standards
  • Review civil, structural, and architectural plans to support surveying and construction layout
  • Collaborate with Survey Project Managers and field personnel to ensure accurate project execution

What We're Looking For

Required

  • Strong proficiency with AutoCAD Civil 3D
  • Solid understanding of survey points, point groups, CSV files, coordinate systems, and survey data management
  • Ability to calculate pipe slopes and interpret grading information
  • Experience reading civil engineering, architectural, and construction plans
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
  • Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with project teams

Preferred

  • Experience using Agtek Earthwork 3D
  • Earthwork modeling and volume calculations
  • Material quantity takeoffs from construction plans
  • Experience with Bluebeam, Microsoft Office, Microsoft Teams, and Dropbox

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive salary: $70,000-$85,000, depending on experience
  • Comprehensive benefits package
  • Opportunity to work on diverse construction and land development projects
  • Collaborative team environment with opportunities for professional growth

If you're an experienced Survey Technician looking for a role where your Civil 3D expertise will have a direct impact on project success, we'd love to hear from you.
