Dreiling Terrones Architecture is a multi-disciplined Architecture, Planning and Construction Management firm. We provide comprehensive design and construction services, offering a non-traditional range of strategic actions for public and private clients. We are intentionally small, we make both visible and invisible architecture, and we do not accept the traditional boundaries of the common practice of architecture.
We are looking for people to provide intermediate level production (drafting) management as part of our in-house staff, at our Burlingame, California Office. We are interested in people capable of over-seeing the making of architectural drawings of buildings - 2D plans, elevations, sections, details, etc. We do NOT need people only interested or capable of "modeling" buildings. We do not need you to know BIM, or Rhino, or other modeling software. We need you to know CAD - preferably Vectorworks.
We are further interested in people looking to develop their knowledge of Architectural Production, in order to become Architects. We are an experienced firm that can train people to become Architects, IF they are capable. If you can provide good mid-management services, we can teach you good design discipline, good project management, and the genuine Architect's stance.
