Our services span schematic design, materials research, construction documents, interior design, value engineering, project management, field supervision, mock-ups, and construction oversight.

Role Description We are seeking an Intermediate Designer (3–5 years experience) with advanced Revit skills to support one or two upcoming projects on a contract, project-based basis.

Bachelor’s degree in Architecture or related field

Excellent communication, time management, and attention to detail

Ability to operate independently with clear direction and meet deadlines

Compensation
