This position requires a professional degree in landscape architecture (BLA or MLA), detail-oriented design skills, graphic representation, experience producing construction documents for medium or large-scale projects, and experience coordinating with other design and engineering consultants. Our ideal candidate will be self-motivated and flexible, with strong communication skills, willingness to take initiative and an interest in working as part of a team. Professional experience working in AutoCAD or Revit, Adobe Photoshop, and Illustrator, and SketchUp or Rhino is required. Knowledge of LandFx and an interest in planting design is also beneficial.
