Job description

Job Description

\n

Supersuite is a design and drafting studio in Beverley. We design and document commercial facades and prefabricated construction for major projects in South Australia and nationally — aluminium facade systems, curtain wall, GRC and resin composite forms, structural steel & sheet metal.

\n

Why this role is different

\n

Most facade drafting roles are one seat in a documentation line. Ours isn't. The team is small enough that you'll take a package from architectural intent through to shop drawings, fabrication detailing, preparation for manufacture and on-site delivery, work directly with the workshop on how it gets built, and see it go up.

\n

We're a team of five. You'd also work alongside our major client's team day to day, so a good part of the role is coordinating directly with them.

\n

Most of our construction work runs through a long-term partnership with one of South Australia's major facade contractors, generally on landmark projects across the state. You can see a selection of our previous work here: .au

\n

What you'll do

\n

    \n
  • 3D CAD model facade, cladding and structural steel packages, through to shop drawings for architectural, engineering and builder approval
  • \n
  • Contribute to concept development on design-and-construct projects, from early sketch development to final documentation
  • \n
  • Prepare fabrication documentation and CAD/CAM output, and work alongside workshop staff through production
  • \n
  • Interpret architectural and structural specifications and drawings, identifying scope, key features and risks early
  • \n
  • Extract quantities and material estimates from 3D models
  • \n
  • Liaise with architects, engineers, project managers and site staff, including on-site inspection of facade elements
  • \n
  • Manage drawing revisions and document control to our CAD and drafting standards
  • \n

\n

What you'll need

\n

    \n
  • Four + years of CAD experience, drafting for construction, fabrication or manufacturing
  • \n
  • Strong 3D CAD skills — SolidWorks preferred, Inventor or Rhino translate well
  • \n
  • Working knowledge of laser cutting, CNC machining, brake processing, rolling and general metal fabrication processes
  • \n
  • Ability to read architectural and structural drawings, spot inconsistencies and raise them early
  • \n
  • Clear written and verbal communication to coordinate project detail directly with project managers, workshop and on-site staff
  • \n
  • Comfortable running your own packages and pulling in the team when you need to
  • \n
  • Able to work to delivery programmes and critical path milestones
  • \n
  • Strong general IT and spreadsheet skills
  • \n
  • Disciplined digital organisation and document management
  • \n

\n

Helpful, not essential

\n

    \n
  • Facade, curtain wall or cladding experience
  • \n
  • Structural steel, sheet metal or general metal fabrication drafting
  • \n
  • Prefabricated construction methodology
  • \n
  • Experience with 3D scanning and point cloud survey data as modelling reference
  • \n
  • Mechanical CAD design background — assembly modelling or manufactured products
  • \n
  • Relevant degree, diploma or TAFE qualification
  • \n

\n

About the wider business

\n

Supersuite is also a product design and commercialisation consultancy — that's the work on our website. The facade and construction side runs as a separate arm with its own clients, and it's where this role sits. A product or industrial design background is useful here, and there are occasional crossover work opportunities — but this is a facade and construction drafting role.

\n

What we offer

\n

    \n
  • Genuine ownership of your own packages, with senior support close by
  • \n
  • A small, fast-moving team on real deadlines — direct, well-organised, and short on bureaucracy
  • \n
  • Work that gets built, and built locally
  • \n
