Why this role exists

Our client is an integrated architecture and engineering firm specializing in high-end US residential projects. Their multidisciplinary team includes licensed architects and engineers with 15+ years of experience across architecture, structural, civil, landscape, MEP and interior design. They are growing rapidly and refining processes to deliver faster, more cost-effective solutions without compromising quality.

What you'll own

• Accurate, high-quality, standards-compliant Revit models based on design intent, project requirements and internal guidelines
• Translation of conceptual input from senior designers and architects into detailed multidisciplinary Revit models across Architecture, Structure and MEP
• Specific design portions within a project, with informed decisions when design direction is not fully defined
• Project support from early design phases through permit and construction documentation, keeping consistency and buildability throughout
• Real-time design sessions, daily design jams and client meetings, capturing decisions and clarifying requirements
• Close collaboration with licensed professionals and senior team members to refine design solutions and maintain quality
• Continuous improvement and documentation of Revit standards, workflows and SOPs
• Proactive communication on design challenges, coordination issues and opportunities for improvement

Why this is interesting

• You own design portions and make real design decisions, not just draft
• You work alongside licensed architects and engineers on high-end US residential projects
• You help shape the Revit standards and SOPs of a firm that is growing rapidly

What we're looking for

• 3-6 years of architectural design experience with strong exposure to project development and documentation, ideally in residential projects
• Advanced in Revit as your primary production tool, with strong multidisciplinary understanding across Architecture, Structure and MEP
• Solid understanding of US residential construction methods, particularly wood-framed construction. You spot design conflicts and propose practical solutions
• Ownership of design quality and accuracy, and quick response to tasks, revisions and communication
• Proactive and team-oriented, comfortable with ambiguity and evolving requirements in a growth-stage operation
• English C1, written and spoken, with strong command of architectural and construction terminology to follow fast-paced technical and client-facing discussions in real time

Bonus

• Experience with US residential, single-family home or hospitality projects
• Familiarity with Bluebeam for markups
• Experience with Slack and Google Drive
• Experience working in distributed or remote teams

What success looks like

First 90 days

You complete the 20-business-day trial period and show you can translate design concepts into coordinated Revit models aligned with internal standards. You participate actively in daily all-team meetings and design jams, flag design challenges and coordination issues early, and contribute at least one improvement to Revit workflows or documentation.

Ongoing

You consistently deliver permit-ready documentation that stays consistent and buildable across Architecture, Structure and MEP. You own design portions independently, carry partially defined concepts to completion with minimal rework, and help standardize Revit standards and SOPs so the team scales efficiently.
