Associates of Wooster - Brian Bittner, CAD Drafter & Field Tech
Discover the story of Brian Bittner, a longtime Wooster team member whose CAD drafting, field work, and drone footage help bring engineering projects to life.
If you’ve seen aerial footage of Wooster projects on our website — or on YouTube — there’s a good chance Brian was behind it.
This spring marks 19 years at Wooster, where Brian supports CAD drafting and drone operations across the firm’s traffic, civil, and roadway projects. He also helped launch Wooster’s YouTube page, bringing projects to life from a new perspective.
Brian grew up in Crafton and still lives nearby today, just down the road from Wooster’s original home and the stretch of Crafton Boulevard the firm sponsors through its Adopt-A-Highway program.
Before joining the firm, he spent 10 years as a UPS driver — including stops at the Wooster office.
“I used to joke that maybe someday I’d work here,” he says. “Eventually, I did.”
How long have you been at Wooster?
Coming up on 19 years this April — it’s gone pretty fast when you look back at it.
What exactly do you do here?
I work in CAD drafting, creating the drawings that support our traffic, civil, and roadway engineering projects. It’s a lot of taking what the engineers design and turning it into something that can actually be built.
I also help capture drone footage of projects during construction and after they’re completed, which has been a nice change of pace from being behind the computer.
Favorite Wooster projects?
Two that stand out are Bakery Square in Pittsburgh and the Wheeling Streetscape project.
Wheeling is a big one — it’s been going on for years and covers a long stretch of roadway with new sidewalks, trees, and streetscape improvements. It’s cool to see something that large come together over time.
What do you do outside of work?
My wife and I manage several rental properties, so there’s always something going on — whether it’s a renovation, a repair, or getting a place ready for new tenants.
Lately, most nights after work have been spent working on one project or another.
Favorite Wooster community activity?
The Adopt-A-Highway cleanup along Crafton Boulevard. I live nearby, so it’s nice being able to help take care of an area that’s basically right in my neighborhood.
What keeps you busy these days?
Mostly family, work, and our rental properties. And of course, watching my kids play sports!
