Job Description

Neal Communities is proud to be recognized as the 2025 Top Workplace in Sarasota & Manatee Counties! We’re looking for an experienced Architectural CAD Drafter to join our team in Sarasota! As part of our dynamic and collaborative in-house Drafting team, you’ll play a vital role in producing detailed residential construction documents and plan specifications for permits and customer options. Our team is passionate about delivering an exceptional home-buying experience, from concept to completion.

This position is on-site at our Sarasota office and is not a remote role.

WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT WORKING AT NEAL COMMUNITIES:

  • The People!  We take tremendous pride in making a positive difference in our team's lives. Our employees are not just an asset to Neal Communities and its customers; they are essential to the success of our business
  • Outstanding Benefits -  Health Care - Medical, Dental, Vision, and Prescription Drug Coverage
  • Excellent Compensation Package
  • Employer Paid Life Insurance
  • Supplemental Insurance
  • Long & Short-Term Disability Insurance
  • 401(K) with Company Matching Contributions
  • PTO & Paid Holidays
  • Employer Paid ID Theft Protection
  • Employee Home Purchase Discount Program
  • Tuition Reimbursement Program
  • Employee Wellness Program
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
  • Pet Insurance
  • Employee Service Awards
  • Vendor Discount Program

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

  • Produce construction-ready production drawings based on executed sales contracts and approved standard plans
  • Draft and revise floor plans, interior elevations, and site plans using established standards and templates
  • Create and maintain as-built drawings, lot fits, and community-specific site plans
  • Apply redlines and revisions from Construction, Engineering, and Field teams with accuracy and efficiency
  • Maintain and update CAD standards, blocks, and libraries to ensure consistency across all plans
  • Review drawings for completeness and compliance prior to release
  • Support Marketing and Operations by preparing plan-based documentation from existing standards
  • Work within defined processes and timelines to support high-volume residential production
  • This role focuses on technical drafting and plan accuracy—not architectural design or conceptual work

THIS ROLE IS A GREAT FIT IF YOU:

  • Prefer technical drafting over creative design
  • Enjoy working from established standards and templates
  • Like collaborating with Construction and Field teams
  • Take pride in clean, accurate, buildable drawings

WHAT YOU BRING:

  • 3–5 years of hands-on AutoCAD drafting experience in residential construction or homebuilding
  • Strong ability to interpret redlines, construction documents, and builder standards
  • Working knowledge of residential building codes, construction methods, and plan conventions
  • High attention to detail and consistency in drawing updates and document control
  • Comfortable working in a production-driven, deadline-oriented environment
  • Proficiency with AutoCAD and basic Microsoft Office tools (Outlook, Word, Excel)
  • Clear communication skills and the ability to collaborate with Construction and other teams

PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS:

  • General sedentary work requiring the use of office equipment such as computers, copiers, printers, scanners and telephones
  • Position requires sitting, standing, walking, bending, stooping, grasping, writing, typing, repetitive motions, hearing ability, visual acuity, and climbing stairs on occasion
  • May occasionally lift and move up to 30 pounds

We are an Equal Opportunity Employer and a Drug-Free Workplace Employer.
