Architectural Designer

On Point Search Group, Acton, MA, United States


About the Company A well‑established, high‑end residential design‑build firm based in MetroWest Boston. The team delivers thoughtful renovations, additions, and full home transformations, with a strong reputation for craftsmanship and client experience.

Currently a tight‑knit group of ~10, with plans to grow, and doing roughly $4–5M annually in design‑build remodeling work.

The Opportunity This is not a back‑office design role.

Seeking an

Architectural Designer / Project Developer

who can operate at the front end of projects — working directly with clients, shaping design, and helping guide projects from initial concept through construction.

This role sits at the core of the business and will have real influence on both design direction and project success.

What You’ll Be Doing

Lead client conversations alongside ownership from early concept through project kickoff

Develop design solutions for high‑end renovations, additions, and kitchen/bath projects

Produce drawings, construction documents, and 3D models

Document existing conditions and evaluate site constraints

Assist with budgeting, scope development, and early feasibility

Perform take‑offs and help build project estimates

Coordinate closely with field teams and trade partners

Stay involved during construction to ensure design intent is executed properly

Help drive projects from design into production without handoff gaps

What They’re Looking For

~10+ years in residential architecture, remodeling, or design‑build

Strong experience with high‑end renovations (not ground‑up heavy)

Comfortable wearing multiple hats — design, estimating input, client interaction

Solid understanding of residential construction (wood frame, sequencing, feasibility)

Proficiency in Chief Architect, Revit, or similar tools

Able to produce clean, buildable construction documents

Strong client presence — someone who can sit at the table, not just behind a screen

Bonus: familiarity with NARI standards or design‑build environments

Why This Role Is Interesting

Direct exposure to ownership and decision‑making

Real influence over projects from concept through completion

Tight, collaborative team — not a corporate machine

Consistent pipeline of high‑end residential work

Opportunity to grow with a firm actively looking to scale.
