Pool Systems Designer — SketchUp / Technical CAD (Equipment & Utility Design) — Long-Term Remote
Technical Pool Systems Designer
Our systems-driven custom pool, landscaping, and outdoor living company based in Utah, USA, builds high-end concrete pools, spas, and outdoor living spaces. We're looking for a technical designer to own the engineering-drawing side of all our projects, ensuring our field crews and permit submittals receive clean, dimensioned drawings alongside complete material lists every time.
This is a technical, dimensional, detail-driven role, not artistic or focused on renditions. You’ll work directly with the owner, gradually taking ownership of our equipment design, drawing, and material-spec systems, aiming to become our go-to pool systems designer.
Responsibilities
- Design pool equipment sets in 3D using SketchUp Pro + LayOut, including:
- Pumps
- Filters
- Heaters
- Salt systems
- Valves
- Manifolds
- Ensure correct spacing, manufacturer service clearances, and plumbing runs that fit seamlessly
- Produce dimensioned drawings for field crews and permit submittal
- Design and size utility runs, including:
- Gas line and power routing on site plans
- Wire gauge and poly-pipe sizing based on distance and load (per manufacturer specs and standard tables/calculators)
- Develop and maintain component "kits" to automate material lists (fittings, unions, cable, conduit, and consumables)
- Read and apply manufacturer installation manuals to ensure proper clearances, connection sizes, and requirements
- Collaborate on documenting processes and creating repeatable checklists for workflows
- Leverage AI tools to enhance accuracy and speed up work
- Coordinate with the owner for specs, clarification, and priority setting

- Drawings are clean, dimensioned, and ready for field crews or permit offices with minimal rework
- Material lists are complete and accurate, including all required consumables
- Utility runs are properly sized and routed
- Potential issues (e.g., clearance conflicts, pipe-length gaps, missing components) are caught before field execution
- The design system becomes more organized and repeatable over time
