• Coordinate with vendors, clients, and internal colleagues across different offices.
• Track budgets closely, look for ways to reduce costs without lowering standards, and keep financial control throughout the project.
• Hold regular reviews, risk checks, and progress updates for stakeholders, while resolving issues and delays proactively.
• Support smooth on-site execution by handling logistics, timing, and contractor coordination.
• Carry out site visits and technical surveys when required.
• Supervise production timelines and ensure consistent quality control.
• Provide technical assistance using SolidWorks and Rhino.

• Candidates must already be located in New York.
• At least 3 years of experience in project coordination or technical production is required.
• Strong working knowledge of CAD tools, especially SolidWorks and Rhino, is essential.
• Comfort using MS Office and Adobe Creative Suite is needed.
• Excellent communication, troubleshooting, and time-management abilities are important.
• You should be able to juggle multiple priorities and adapt quickly in a fast-moving environment.
• Fluency in English is required; Spanish is considered an advantage.
• You must be capable of working both independently and as part of a team.
