Supersuite is a design and drafting studio in Beverley. We design and document commercial facades and prefabricated construction for major projects in South Australia and nationally — aluminium facade systems, curtain wall, GRC and resin composite forms, structural steel & sheet metal.
Why this role is different
Most facade drafting roles are one seat in a documentation line. Ours isn't. The team is small enough that you'll take a package from architectural intent through to shop drawings, fabrication detailing, preparation for manufacture and on-site delivery, work directly with the workshop on how it gets built, and see it go up.
We're a team of five. You'd also work alongside our major client's team day to day, so a valuable part of the role is coordinating directly with them.
Most of our construction work runs through a long-term partnership with one of South Australia's major facade contractors, generally on landmark projects across the state. You can see a selection of our previous work here:
What you'll do
3D CAD model facade, cladding and structural steel packages, through to shop drawings for architectural, engineering and builder approval
Contribute to concept development on design-and-construct projects, from early sketch development to final documentation
Prepare fabrication documentation and CAD/CAM output, and work alongside workshop staff through production
Interpret architectural and structural specifications and drawings, identifying scope, key features and risks early
Extract quantities and material estimates from 3D models
Liaise with architects, engineers, project managers and site staff, including on-site inspection of facade elements




Manage drawing revisions and document control to our CAD and drafting standards
What you'll need
Four + years of CAD experience, drafting for construction, fabrication or manufacturing
Strong 3D CAD skills — SolidWorks preferred, Inventor or Rhino translate well
Working knowledge of laser cutting, CNC machining, brake processing, rolling and general metal fabrication processes
Ability to read architectural and structural drawings, spot inconsistencies and raise them early
Clear written and verbal communication to coordinate project detail directly with project managers, workshop and on-site staff
Comfortable running your own packages and pulling in the team when you need to
Able to work to delivery programmes and critical path milestones
Strong general IT and spreadsheet skills
Disciplined digital organisation and document management
Helpful, not essential
Facade, curtain wall or cladding experience
Prefabricated construction methodology
Experience with 3D scanning and point cloud survey data as modelling reference
Mechanical CAD design background — assembly modelling or manufactured products
About the wider business
Supersuite is also a product design and commercialisation consultancy — that's the work on our website. The facade and construction side runs as a separate arm with its own clients, and it's where this role sits. A product or industrial design background is useful here, and there are occasional crossover work opportunities — but this is a facade and construction drafting role.
What we offer
Genuine ownership of your own packages, with senior support close by
A small, fast-moving team on real deadlines — direct, well-organised, and short on bureaucracy
