Design & BIM Manager

• Manage conceptual and architectural drawing packages, coordinating internal design staff and external partners.

• Oversee shop drawing production, from internal workflow through consultant approval, ensuring every package is current and complete before release to production and field teams.

• Establish and enforce drawing standards, revision control, and constructability and code review.

• Communicate design intent clearly to production, construction managers, project managers, and field crews, and serve as the primary point of contact for design questions from the factory floor.

• Operate Revit as the primary design tool, capable of leading full architectural drawing sets.

• Identify repeatable patterns across projects and systemize designs into standardized templates and workflows that support scaling production.

• Ensure design standards are applied consistently across projects and facilities, and support integration between design output and production reporting software.

• Lead adoption of new design or planning software, and own the implementation of process improvements within the design team and in collaboration with production, manufacturing, and other related departments.

• Maintain current knowledge of prefabricated construction, with specific depth in panelized wall, floor, and roof systems.

• Apply that knowledge to every drawing review, ensuring designs are buildable, efficient, and manufacturable in a factory setting.

• Contribute to constructability reviews and pre-production meetings, collaborating with the Production Coordinator and factory team to translate design into effective, waste-conscious production packages.

• Partner with Project Managers to confirm design scope, drawing timelines, and requirements before production planning begins.

• Coordinate with the Production Coordinator on design package release timing to align with factory sequencing.

• Flag design risks, scope changes, or schedule impacts to the Director of Manufacturing and VP of Operations as early as possible, and support the sales team with design input on scope, feasibility, and approach.

• Hybrid role based in the Okanagan, working primarily from a home office.

• Weekly travel to Paradigm's Louis Creek factory required, to coordinate with production and manufacturing, with regular time in the Kamloops office as needed.

• Fast-paced environment with shifting priorities driven by project schedules and production demand, and exposure to varying temperatures, noise, and dust during factory visits.
