JOB DESCRIPTION

Project Manager/ Estimator

The Project Manager's function is to oversee and facilitate all aspects of estimating, scheduling, procurement and construction. All estimating, scheduling and purchasing is performed by the Project Manager, so you are dealing with someone who has first hand knowledge of the preparation of these items. His/her involvement in the process starts with pre-construction and continues through job close-out and warranty management. The Project Manager has the ability to commit the firm contractually. Devcon empowers its Project Managers to have total control over each project. Our Principal, Gary Filizetti can be involved as requested, or as required, to facilitate each project.

Superintendent

The Superintendent is the direct contact between the Project Manager and the mechanics and craftspersons performing the individual tasks. His/her job is to implement the plans, budget, schedule and monitor the progress on a daily basis as well as assist with updates on critical path schedules and deliveries. The Superintendent and Project Manager work together as a team to ensure that each project is delivered on-time and within budget.

Administrative Assistant

The Administrative Assistant works in tandem with the Project Manager to ensure all administrative & project responsibilities are met. These responsibilities range from issuance of job numbers to monitoring timely receipt and approvals of project submittals, change order requests and interfacing with subcontractors, owners, architects and user groups. Administrative Assistants are key support personnel.

Project Architect

Devcon’s Project Architects are all licensed in California and are members of the Santa Clara Valley Chapter of the AIA. One of the top priorities of the Project Architect is to identify the functional aesthetic and budgetary requirements of the project. Once established, the Project Architect creates several design solutions based on these criteria. Depending on the size and complexity of the project, the PA may be assisted by an Interior Designer and/or Draftspersons to form a Design Team. The Project Architect is responsible for all aspects of the project design including code compliance, public agency approvals, the working drawing package, and field observation. The Project Architect also hires (with owner input, if requested) the appropriate design consultants necessary for the project (i.e., Civil Engineer, Structural Engineer, Landscape Architect).

Interior Designer

The Interior Designer is primarily responsible for all aspects of designing the building’s built interior. Devcon’s Interior Designers are well versed in programming, space planning, code compliance, detailing, color and material selection and are experienced at working within the client’s budget. The Interior Designer is responsible for running a project from start to finish. These responsibilities also include the working drawing package, public agency approvals, and field observation. Depending on the size and complexity of the project, the Interior Designer may be assisted by Draftspersons to form a Design Team.

Draftsperson

The Draftsperson assists the Project Architect and Interior Designer in all aspects of the project. Draftspersons are assigned to projects based on their experience level and ability to add strength to the project team. Many of Devcon’s Draftspersons have degrees in Architecture or Interior Design and are working towards increasing their responsibilities accordingly.
