Jason Gardner
Director of Computer Aided Design
For 15 years Mr. Gardner has developed and managed computer drafting and building modeling systems for architects and engineers. Building on his training in civil engineering, he expanded his role from running design calculations and designing residential structures to customizing Computer Aided Design and Drafting software and training employees to use the software.
Over 10 years ago, Mr. Gardner worked with ARC to develop programing for AutoCAD Architecture software that tracked and quantified scope in drawings and introduced standardization to drafting systems, improving productivity. In 2018 he came back to ARC in a management level position to build on the systems that he developed a decade before. Mr. Gardner has worked within the ARC team to create our proprietary code that automates the organization, export, tracking and scheduling of project data.
Over the last two years Mr. Gardner’s role has expanded into providing field support to project managers, allowing him greater insight into the relationships between field work and its supporting technology. He has used this insight to streamline and develop field tools that integrate into ARC reports and use the same symbology as the CAD system for coordination between field observations into construction documents.
