You’ll help prepare drawings and construction documents in AutoCAD and Revit, support redline updates, and learn how structural design fits into the full project workflow.

This internship gives you the chance to build technical skills, ask questions, collaborate with a supportive team, and see how your work contributes to projects across multiple industries. Bring your enthusiasm and willingness to learn and we’ll help you take the next step toward your career in structural design.
