A draftsperson, also called a drafter, CAD technician or draftsman, turns design intent and markups into accurate technical drawings. They produce plans, sections, elevations and details, assemble permit and construction document sets, draw shop drawings for fabricators, and keep CAD files and Revit models clean and coordinated through every revision.
Architectural draftspersons for residential, multifamily and commercial practices; Revit drafters and BIM technicians; structural and MEP drafters for engineering firms; shop-drawing drafters for steel, precast and millwork fabricators; and CAD drafters for as-builts, site plans and permit drawings.

Both. Most of our draftspersons are fluent in AutoCAD and Revit, and many also use Civil 3D, SketchUp, Bluebeam or Tekla. Tell us your software and version and we only shortlist drafters who work in it daily.
Yes. Our draftspersons have produced drawing sets for US firms, work in imperial units, and follow your title blocks, layer names, dimension styles and sheet templates. Code compliance stays with your licensed architect or engineer; the drafter documents it accurately.
Yes. Draftsperson, drafter, draftsman and CAD technician all describe the same role: producing accurate technical drawings from design intent. We place drafters across architecture, structural, MEP, civil and fabrication work.

Yes. Latin American draftspersons work within one to three hours of US time zones and usually keep full US business hours. Many clients also use the overlap to send markups late and get revised sheets first thing.
Every candidate is interviewed, checked for written English, and given a practical drafting test: picking up a real markup set to a provided standard. We review their portfolio of drawing sets before they reach your shortlist.
You get a shortlist of three vetted draftspersons within 24 hours of your call. Most clients interview the same week and have their drafter working within 24 to 72 hours of choosing.
Tell us and we will shortlist replacement candidates. There is no long-term commitment, so you can also cancel at any time.
Usually yes: most firms give their drafter an AutoCAD or Revit seat and access to their file server or cloud environment so drawings stay in your systems. Some drafters hold their own licences; we can confirm on the call.
