Architectural Production Specialist

Architecture Vanguard is an architecture firm in the Denver metro area. ADUs, additions, and custom homes are our bread and butter, plus the occasional commercial project. Right now there's more work coming in than we can document, so we're looking for a sharp production partner who can take finished Revit models to permit-ready construction document sets.

The role

• Take completed, information-rich Revit models to full permit sets (CDs) using our established template and standards
• Draft plan review responses for jurisdictions across the metro (we have a documented process for this)
• Handle small model revisions, exports, and issue-for-construction updates
• Coordinate window/door specs and minor engineer/contractor items as needed
• Occasional site visits around the Denver metro, whether that's measuring and verifying existing conditions or getting eyes on a site

Most work is ADU documentation: repeatable, well-templated, precedent-rich. If you're fast and meticulous here, there's room to grow into additions, new builds, and design support.

Structure & Pay

• Contract (1099), mostly remote, with occasional site visits around the Denver metro
• 30–40 hrs/week. Volume moves with the pipeline.
• Flexible on when you work, but we plan your hours week to week so deadlines stay covered
• $25–40/hr depending on experience
• We'll start with a 90-day trial period so we can both make sure it's a good fit
• Hourly rate grows with demonstrated speed and quality
• Referral bonus: 10% of project fee for any signed project you bring in with no cap

Required

• 5+ years producing construction documents in Revit — Revit is our primary tool, used daily
• Architecture firm experience — you've worked inside real firm workflows, standards, and deadlines
• You've taken projects through permit review and know what plan reviewers look for
• Based in the Denver metro area, with reliable transportation for occasional site visits
• Self-managed: you can take a model and a checklist and come back with a submittable set
• Dependable and communicative — you proactively surface risks early, confirm timelines up front, and coordinate adjustments so deadlines stay covered

Preferred

• Residential experience; Denver-metro jurisdiction familiarity
• Field experience: site visits, measuring existing conditions, and photo documentation
• Experience with Bluebeam, Twinmotion, and Notion
• Familiarity with AI prompting and hands-on experience with AI tools
• You notice design problems while documenting — and flag them
