Company Description

At Coffman Engineers, we serve as both prime consultant and sub consultant on projects large and small, including commercial, retail, institutional, government, industrial, and project/construction management. Incorporated in 1979, we have employees in more than 24 locations serving clients across the United States and overseas.

To meet client objectives and to integrate our many disciplines, we can create teams comprised of civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, fire protection, and corrosion control, as well as project/construction managers and professionals in a variety of specialty services. This ability has made us a leader in the engineering and construction communities, and has strengthened our reputation as being progressive, innovative, and a great place to work.

Job Description

Designing a better world is more than a career, it’s a calling! Come work with a team of professionals dedicated to design excellence at Coffman Engineers’ Anchorage office.

Landscape Architect/Planner/Site Designer: Do you have a minimum of eight years of working experience with landscape and site design projects? Do you have experience designing parks, understanding the community engagement process, commercial/military projects, and coordinating with multi-disciplinary design teams? Do you have a desire to integrate indigenous culture into the built environment? Do you want to work in Alaska? If so, we want to talk to you!

The ideal candidate for this position is a strategic thinker, self-starter, and works well in a team environment. Responsibilities include all aspects of design, production of construction documents and project management. To be successful in this role, you will have a background working with architectural/engineering firms, the ability to work independently on multiple simultaneous projects, and excellent time management skills. This position requires proficiency in drawing both three dimensions and two dimensions to convey the design intent during concept design through construction documentation. Excellent verbal and written communication skills are vitally important in maintaining efficiency in our high-functioning teams.

Additionally, the position involves managing project milestones and deliverables, ensuring that all work is completed on time, within scope, and within budget. Effective coordination with cross-functional teams and external consultants is essential to ensure that design specifications and quality standards are consistently met. This role requires some previous experience in architectural or engineering firms, the ability to independently manage multiple project deliverables with strong prioritization and time management, and exceptional communication skills for effective collaboration. A proactive approach to continuous improvement and problem-solving is also essential.

Qualifications

Candidates will:

  • Have a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Landscape Architecture.
  • Be registered as a PLA, desired.
  • Have a minimum of 8 years’ experience with landscape and site design projects.
  • Be an innovative thinker and thought leader.
  • Be a project manager who can work with the client and lead the A/E design team from the onset of a project through construction.
  • Be a project manager who can lead stakeholders through the design process.
  • Have the experience to maintain design integrity as a project moves from concept design through construction documentation.
  • Produce and guide the creative thought process for master planning, park design, site design and planting plan solutions.
  • Be able to communicate design intent by hand sketching early in the process and quickly converting sketches into a digital format (i.e. Photoshop/AutoCAD) to professionally convey the design intent.
  • Have experience with AutoCAD, Revit and the Adobe Creative Suite, desired.
  • Be proficient at producing construction documents for planting plans, court yards, building entry plazas, and drainage features.

In addition to the specifics of this position, Coffman looks for the following qualities in anyone we bring into our team:

  • A positive, can-do attitude and the desire to be part of a team.
  • A client-focused ability to communicate effectively, provide a high level of attention to detail, and handle simultaneous deadlines.
  • Guide and teach the next generation of landscape architects.
  • Strong communication skills; combined hand drawing, written and verbal.
  • The ability to maintain flexibility within a large scope of responsibilities.
  • The ability to take direction and work independently while staying highly organized.

This position is not eligible for sponsorship.
