 Overview

Pacaso is building a trusted network of pre-vetted contract designers to extend our internal design team as acquisition volume grows. This is not a traditional freelance posting. We are looking for experienced residential designers who want an ongoing source of well-defined, repeatable project work within a structured creative framework.

Contract designers work on a project-by-project basis — either per home or on a flexible retainer depending on pipeline needs — and are compensated on a flat project fee tied to FF&E budget scope. Designers who complete a successful pilot engagement are added to the approved Pacaso Design Partner Roster and are prioritized for future assignments.

The Opportunity

Pacaso homes are co-owned luxury residences — designed to feel elevated, personal, and effortlessly livable for multiple owners year-round. Our internal design team leads all creative direction, but with 33 projected acquisitions in 2026 and peak volume reaching 3–5 homes per month in Q3 and Q4, we are building an external partner network to scale alongside us.

As a contract designer, you will execute full FF&E design for individual Pacaso homes — from space planning through final documentation — working within Pacaso's brand standards, vendor frameworks, and production templates. The Senior Manager of Design reviews and approves all work at defined milestones.

Think of this as a hospitality-minded approach to residential design: beautiful spaces that are also durable, broadly appealing within a regional aesthetic, and built to perform across heavy use. If you thrive in structured creative environments and value steady, repeat work over one-off bespoke commissions, this is the right fit.

What You'll Do

Core Design Deliverables (per home)

• Develop space plans using your preferred tool
• Build a Design Schematic in Pacaso's Canva template, presenting concept direction and FF&E selections in a format ready for owner-facing use
• Specify full FF&E using Pacaso's preferred vendor list and sourcing frameworks
• Populate the Spec Book in Google Sheets with complete, accurate product and placement data
• Produce Placement Documents in Canva per Pacaso standards
• Attend all milestone reviews with the Senior Manager of Design: space plan, schematic/FF&E, budget alignment, and final documentation

Project Collaboration

• Receive and work from the Pacaso Design Assignment Packet provided at project kickoff
• Partner with Pacaso's Procurement and Sourcing teams to confirm product availability and budget compliance
• Collaborate with cross-functional partners (Operations, Onboarding, Logistics) to support successful installation
• Travel to onboardings and manage in-person staging and styling as needed (project-dependent)
• Communicate proactively, meet deadlines, and deliver clean documentation at every stage

Design Refresh & Ongoing Work

• Support existing Pacaso homes with replacement FF&E sourcing and periodic design audits
• Contribute to full-home design refreshes as assigned

What We're Looking For

Experience & Credentials

• Bachelor's degree in Interior Design or Architecture (NCIDQ / CID preferred)
• 5+ years of professional experience with a focus on high-end residential and/or hospitality design
• Demonstrated portfolio of luxury residential work with strong regional aesthetic sensibility
• Hospitality, multifamily, or investment residential experience is a strong plus — familiarity with client-directed, operationally conscious design processes
• Active project experience in or near one of our target markets (Kiawah/Charleston, South Florida, Mountain West, SoCal, or Wine Country)

Design & Technical Skills

• Proficiency in Revit and AutoCAD required; SketchUp Pro and/or Rhino preferred
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat) required
• Comfort working in Google Workspace (Slides, Sheets, Docs, Drive) and Canva — these are Pacaso's primary workflow tools
• Exceptional design presentation skills — your concept decks are polished, client-ready, and clearly communicate a point of view

Working Style & Mindset

• You thrive in structured creative environments and deliver excellent work within defined budgets and vendor frameworks
• You are documentation-oriented, deadline-driven, and easy to collaborate with remotely
• You bring a hospitality sensibility to residential work: spaces that feel personal and elevated without being precious
• You have the bandwidth and business structure to take on contract engagements alongside existing projects
• You operate as a registered business entity and carry professional liability insurance

How the Partnership Works

The Vetting Process

Every designer goes through the same process before being approved for a Pacaso home. This is a six-step process owned by the Senior Manager of Design:

• Portfolio review (internal, no contact required)
• Initial outreach — brief introduction to Pacaso's model and partnership structure
• 30-minute discovery call — assessing communication style, bandwidth, and fit
• Reference check — one to two past clients or collaborators
• Deep dive on one completed project — walk us through budget, vendor choices, documentation, and install
• Paid pilot engagement — one project together before formalizing the relationship

The pilot engagement is the most important step. It's an opportunity for both parties to experience the working relationship before making a longer-term commitment. Pacaso evaluates the work against our standards; you experience our process firsthand.

Once Approved

Approved designers are added to the Pacaso Design Partner Roster — a living document maintained by the Senior Manager of Design. There is no standing retainer or volume commitment. When a project is identified as appropriate for an external partner, we select from the approved roster based on market fit and availability.

Partners are evaluated after each engagement on timeliness, accuracy, budget discipline, ease of collaboration, and install outcomes. Strong performers are prioritized for future work.

Echo – Deployment Strategist

Hybrid: Charleston, South Carolina or Quantico, Virginia

Reports to: Head of Delivery

Direct reports: 1–6 Deltas/FDEs per hub

Travel: 0-10% travel expected

At PVM, we serve those who serve, as a Palantir ally for mission impact. We are a veteran-founded, Palantir Vanguard partner and the only small business providing services in that tier. Which means helping our government partners tackle real problems in National Security, Readiness, and Space, not building shelfware.

Help Us Build PVM's Hub

This role is an opportunity to take a front seat in PVM’s new hub – you’ll have front-row proximity to mission, direct mentorship from Palantir experts, and a clear growth path as you get in early while we are building the hub from the ground up. You’ll be working in small, senior teams with real autonomy and be able to truly own your work without the bureaucracy you may find at large companies.

About the Role

You are the CEO of your Portfolio/Hub. You own the mission outcome, the revenue, the product vision, and the team that delivers it end to end.

At PVM an Echo doesn’t just “manage” a deployment. You own your customer’s mission and the overall success of the programs in your portfolio. You own the product vision for your customer, craft the MVP thesis that actually moves the needle, set clear team priorities, ship production-grade solutions at speed, and drive user adoption until the platform is the heartbeat of the mission. Echoes are both facilitators and value amplifiers, combining deep platform expertise with exceptional interpersonal skills, as well as leadership, to deliver real impact for customers. Echoes demonstrate boldness, challenge assumptions, and prioritize customer obsession and measurable outcomes.

Other Cool Names You Might Wear

Mission Owner

Product Lead/Manager

What “Own It” Looks Like Here

• Own 100% of mission success and revenue growth for your portfolio measured as % of the Palantir boutique market.
• Own the product vision for your customer; you decide what the platform needs to become to solve their hardest problems.
• Craft the MVP Thesis; the single-page north-star document that aligns stakeholders, justifies investment, and scopes what we build first.
• Set team priorities weekly; you run the stand-up, own the backlog, and protect the team from scope creep and distraction.
• Drive user adoption until power users are building their own apps and the customer can’t imagine life without Foundry.
• Decompose chaos into ontologies, pipelines, Workshop/Object Explorer apps, Quiver, Code Repos, and AIP chains that get used every day.
• Drive expansion, cross-sell, and upsell revenue within your primary customer stakeholder’s network and any pre-assigned accounts by leveraging technical intimacy, trusted delivery outcomes, and deep understanding of PVM capabilities.
• Co-create reusable accelerators and PVM University content with your Deltas so we never rebuild the wheel.
• Anticipate and kill blockers before they slow momentum. Technical, cultural, political, or financial.
• Own the delivery lifecycle from onboarding through sustainment, with a focus on continuous improvement and feedback loops

You’ll Thrive Here If

• Former Palantir Echo / Deployment Strategist / Dev (you already know what elite deployment feels like) or demonstratable deep Palantir platform expertise.
• Feel rooted in your community; you’re close to the people, challenges, and missions shaping life in your portfolio/hub.
• Proven ability to own product vision and drive expansion inside government accounts.
• You can brief a 3-star, write an MVP thesis, debug a pipeline, and run a retro in the same day.
• Are Mission & Outcome Obsessed – you care more about results than slideware
• Own It – you see a problem, you fix it; no one needs to hand you a ticket
• Believe We Are Better Together – small, senior teams are greater than lone heroes
• Keep It Real – straight talk, no politics, no drama
• Its simple: Don’t be a jerk.
• Active clearance (or immediate eligibility).
• Palantir Foundry experience is highly desired
• Military/Special Operation/Law Enforcement favored but not required for all positions.

What You’ll Get In Return

• A front-row seat at our new hub/portfolio, not a back-row seat on a bloated contract
• Direct mentorship from Palantir experts and a clear path to hub lead roles
• The agility of a small business with the credibility of a top-tier Palantir Vanguard partner
• A team that cares deeply about the mission and each other.
