Project Architect / Intermediate Architect
Wolfgang & Hite / Hite Studio Architecture

Bowery, New York City + Hudson Valley / Catskills

Wolfgang & Hite / Hite Studio Architecture is seeking a

Project Architect / Intermediate Architect

to join our growing practice.

We are a small, design-driven studio based on the Bowery, working across

civic and municipal, nonprofit, residential, and commercial

projects in New York City and the Hudson Valley/Catskills. Our work moves between public institutions, community organizations, private clients, and places of everyday life. We value architecture that is thoughtful, well‑made, and grounded in context.

In addition to our architecture practice, we operate an active design‑build partnership with a fabrication shop in Brooklyn. We value the feedback loop between drawing and making.

As a small practice, we work collaboratively and without rigid hierarchy. Team members are involved across all phases of a project—from early concept work and client conversations to technical documentation, consultant coordination, fabrication coordination, and construction. This role offers real responsibility, broad experience, and the opportunity to help shape meaningful work from beginning to end.

We are looking for someone who is technically capable, design‑minded, curious, and comfortable taking ownership.

Contribute to projects across all phases, from concept design through construction administration

Prepare drawing sets, permit submissions, and construction documents

Coordinate with clients, consultants, fabricators, agencies, and contractors

Develop details, material assemblies, and technical solutions

Support project organization, scheduling, and delivery

Contribute to evolving office standards, systems, and workflows

Qualifications

4–8+ years of professional experience in architecture

Strong technical documentation and detailing skills, with the ability to develop and sustain design intent through the details

Experience producing permit sets and navigating approvals processes

Strong communication, organizational, and coordination skills

Ability to manage project responsibilities with organization and follow‑through, with support from principals as needed

Experience across multiple project types preferred

Experience with

Revit preferred ; proficiency in AutoCAD and other design/documentation platforms also valued

Interest in fabrication, materials, and construction processes is a plus

Licensure welcomed but not required; professional competence, judgment, and experience are valued above any single credential

This role offers increasing responsibility over time, with opportunities to grow into project leadership.

What We Offer

Meaningful responsibility and direct involvement in projects

Broad exposure across building types and project phases

Close collaboration in a small studio environment

Opportunity for growth, leadership, and long‑term contribution

Direct engagement with fabrication and construction through our Brooklyn shop partnership

Work spanning city and rural contexts, institutions and individuals

We take the work seriously, but not ourselves more than necessary.

Compensation
$75,000–$100,000 , based on experience and capability.
