Help Shape the Future of Wall Design at RAS

Ron Anderson & Sons (RAS) is looking for an experienced Wall Designer with recent, hands‑on experience designing prefabricated wood‑frame wall systems and producing coordinated, production‑ready drawings using MiTek software.

This is not an entry‑level drafting position. You will own wall‑design packages from initial drawing review through production release, identifying missing information, resolving coordination issues and developing practical solutions before problems reach fabrication or the job site.

You will work directly with engineers, architects, contractors, RAS project teams and our in‑house fabrication operation. The result of your work will be accurate, buildable wall packages that move efficiently from design into manufacturing and installation.

Job type: Full time, permanent

About RAS

Founded in 1994 and incorporated in 1998, RAS specializes in multi‑family and residential wood‑frame construction on Vancouver Island. Our wall panels are designed and fabricated in‑house using modern software and precision equipment, so our designers see first‑hand how their work is manufactured and installed.

What You’ll Be Doing

- Design prefabricated wall systems using MiTek software
- Extract design information from architectural and structural drawings and submittals
- Produce coordinated, production-ready wall layouts, production drawings and material information
- Identify missing information, design conflicts and coordination issues before they reach fabrication or site
- Develop practical solutions and recognize when engineering review is required
- Coordinate with engineers, architects, contractors, fabrication and project teams
- Manage design revisions,



schedules and project deadlines
- Contribute to improving RAS wall‑design standards, workflows and prefabrication processes

What We’re Looking For

Required

- Minimum three years of recent prefabricated wall‑design experience, including direct responsibility for production‑ready wall packages
- Hands‑on experience with MiTek Supply for prefabricated wall design and production documentation
- Experience producing production drawings for multi‑family or residential wood‑frame construction
- Strong ability to read and interpret architectural and structural drawings
- Ability to identify design conflicts, missing information and constructability issues independently
- Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines while working independently in a remote environment
- Strong written and verbal English communication skills

Preferred Assets

- Experience with AutoCAD, Bluebeam, Javelin or iStruct
- Field framing or mid‑rise wood‑frame construction experience
- Experience coordinating directly with fabrication or manufacturing
- Engineering Technology, Architectural Technology or related technical education

Why Join RAS?

- See your designs built: Work directly with the team fabricating and installing the wall systems you design.
- Work on challenging projects: Design prefabricated wall systems for multi‑family and residential wood‑frame projects.
- Have technical ownership: You own the result, from drawing review to production release.
- Influence how we work: Help improve our wall‑design standards, workflows and coordination.

Compensation and Benefits

- $80,000–$110,000 CAD annually, based on experience and technical capability
- Extended health and dental coverage

- Flexible schedule with an 8‑hour day shift, Monday to Friday
