The posting

Position: Senior Architectural Technician

Salary: up to NZD 3,000 per month (depending on experience and skills)

Working Hours & Conditions: Monday to Friday 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM NZT

ROLE OVERVIEW:

We are seeking an experienced Senior Architectural Technician to join our offshore team. This is a specialized role requiring deep knowledge of New Zealand documentation standards. You will work under the guidance of a NZ-based Senior Architect to produce technically accurate, consent-ready drawing sets.

Note: This is not an entry-level position. We require a professional with a proven track record in the NZ market who can operate independently within a distributed team.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Project Establishment & Setup
  • Set up the project digital environment under direction — Revit model, file structure, drawing register, sheet templates, and view templates
  • Confirm regulatory framework and brief technical parameters with the Senior Architect
  • Initiate project documentation aligned to Ignite's procedural standards
  • Design Phase Documentation
  • Provide technical input on feasibility, constructability, and code constraints during concept and preliminary design
  • Develop the Revit model and documentation to confirm key technical decisions across structural, services, and envelope strategies
  • Test concept options against E2 risk profiles, district plan limits, and structural feasibility
  • Develop construction details demonstrating code compliance and constructability
  • Produce draft schedules including door, window, and finishes schedules
  • Support resource consent application documentation where required
  • Building Consent & Construction Documentation
  • Lead the production of the Building Consent documentation set under the Senior Architect's direction
  • Author specifications using Masterspec and integrate consultant inputs
  • Confirm Producer Statement coordination across the consultant team
  • Support Building Consent applications and respond to council RFIs through the NZ team
  • Run model federation and clash detection in Navisworks; close out clashes with consultants
  • Issue construction documentation to Ignite's documentation standards
  • Construction Phase Support
  • Update construction documentation in response to RFIs, site instructions, and Architect's Instructions issued by the NZ team
  • Process and incorporate addenda; maintain revision and transmittal discipline
  • Conduct technical review of contractor shop drawings — joinery, facade, balustrades, and specialist elements — for sign-off by the Senior Architect
  • Update model and drawings to reflect approved variations and defects schedules
  • Coordinate as-built documentation updates
  • Consultant Coordination
  • Coordinate with structural, civil, geotechnical, mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, fire, acoustic, and specialist consultants under direction from the Senior Architect
  • Resolve high-frequency interface issues including penetrations, slab and beam interfaces, ceiling and bulkhead space, riser sizing, plant rooms, and fire engineering alternative solutions
  • Liaise directly with contractors and suppliers on technical and documentation matters where directed
  • Remote Collaboration
  • Maintain disciplined async communication across Microsoft Teams, email, and ACC issue threads
  • Provide clear and structured status updates and handoffs to the NZ team
  • Escalate ambiguity promptly rather than making autonomous design decisions
  • Operate effectively across time zones with structured overlap and async-first working norms

Requirements

All requirements marked as essential below are non-negotiable for engagement — candidates who do not meet these criteria will not be considered.

MUST HAVE:

  • Architectural Technology qualification or equivalent — Diploma, Bachelor, or recognised technical qualification
  • Minimum 5 years' post-qualification experience in architectural documentation
  • Prior offshore delivery experience working with a NZ or Australian practice, with a minimum of 2 years of documented work on NZ-delivered projects and portfolio evidence of documentation produced for NZ consenting and construction
  • Working knowledge of the New Zealand Building Code, NZ standards (including NZS 3604, 4121, 4229, and 4218), and NZ delivery models including resource consent and building consent processes
  • Working fluency across NZBC clauses relevant to aged care and multi-unit residential — B1, B2, C/AS2, D1, E2, E3, F, G, and H1
  • Proficient in Revit (advanced), Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC/BIM 360), and Bluebeam Revu
  • Strong written and verbal English language proficiency
  • Reliable connectivity and a professional remote working environment

Highly Desirable

  • Project experience in aged care, retirement village, or multi-unit residential typologies
  • Specification authoring experience using Masterspec
  • Navisworks experience for model federation and clash detection
  • Direct experience working with NZ consultants, contractors, and councils — even where remote
  • Familiarity with ISO 19650 and NZBIM Handbook conventions
  • Ongoing professional development through industry engagement

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
