Why This Role Is Different

As a newer office within the firm our team is small but mighty – You’ll work directly alongside the principal and senior staff, not three layers removed from them. At the same time, you’re not joining a firm that’s capped out. We’re part of a multi-office national practice on a strong growth trajectory, and we’re actively building out this location. That means real opportunities for advancement as the office grows. We’re also a firm that’s leaning into AI wholeheartedly as part of how we practice, not just talking about it — you’ll have real opportunity to bring new tools and workflows into projects, not retrofit them later.

What You’ll Do

• Support projects across all phases, from concept design through construction documents and construction administration
• Develop details and document sets with a high level of craft and accuracy
• Build and manage Revit models used in active practice — not just for presentation
• Bring strategic thinking to design challenges, not just execution
• Take ownership of assigned tasks and manage your own priorities across multiple concurrent efforts

 

Requirements

• A professional degree from a NAAB-accredited school of architecture
• Strong, practice-level proficiency in Revit (able to hit the ground running in a live production environment)
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Sharp attention to detail
• Experience with document production and detailing development
• An ability to prioritize — and to understand why something is a priority — while juggling multiple project demands
• Comfort collaborating across disciplines and managing your own workload

 

Preferred

• Licensure, or active, demonstrated progress through the AXP/ARE process
• A demonstrated record of initiative – academic honors, competitions, professional recognition, leadership in a professional or student organization, or similar evidence that you go above and beyond
• A portfolio that conveys design excellence and a commitment to graphic quality
• Enscape rendering experience
• Familiarity with AI-driven design or production tools, or a strong interest in developing those skills

 

What We Offer

• Direct, daily access to local leadership
• Accelerated exposure to various aspects of practice
• The stability and resources of an established, multi-office practice, paired with the agility of a small studio
• A clear growth path as we expand our downtown office
• A collaborative, in-person studio culture in the heart of downtown, with the option for limited structured remote work
• Highly competitive compensation

 

BDG Architects offers a comprehensive benefit package with options for health insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance, life insurance, short and long-term disability insurance, annual performance bonuses, and the ability to participate in a 401K program. We also offer paid holidays and paid personal time off.
