Position Overview

We are seeking a highly organized and detail-driven Project Architect to lead the development of construction documents across a range of residential and light commercial projects. This role is ideal for an architect who genuinely loves the craft of drawing — someone who finds deep satisfaction in the precision of detailing, the choreography of consultant coordination, and the integrity of producing a set that is clear, elegant, buildable, and code-compliant.

This position typically involves managing 2 to 3 projects simultaneously, including custom homes, remodels and additions, restaurant tenant improvements, and miscellaneous drafting or systems-development tasks. The ideal candidate thrives in both design-sensitive and technically demanding environments and takes pride in transforming strong design concepts into beautifully resolved construction documents.

Key Responsibilities

Construction Document Production

•     Lead the production and coordination of full construction document sets for 2 to 3 active projects simultaneously

•     Develop floor plans, roof plans, elevations, sections, details, and schedules from design models and redlines

•     Translate Revit-based design information into highly organized, code-compliant drawing sets

•     Ensure drawings clearly communicate design intent, constructability, and sequencing to contractors and consultants

•     Prepare drawing sets for city plan check, permit submission, and contractor pricing

•     Verify compliance with applicable residential and commercial building codes and local jurisdiction requirements

Consultant Coordination

•     Coordinate architectural drawings with structural, mechanical, plumbing, and electrical consultants throughout all project phases

•     Update architectural plans, sections, and details as consultant drawings evolve

•     Integrate structural framing — including beams, posts, headers, hold-downs, steel framing, and cantilevers — into architectural sections and wall details for accurate field execution

•     Proactively identify and resolve consultant conflicts before they reach the field

Technical Detailing

•     Produce clear and technically rigorous detailing for light wood-frame residential construction

•     Detail steel framing at large spans, cantilevers, and hillside conditions

•     Develop construction details for light gauge steel commercial tenant improvements

•     Support restaurant tenant improvement projects including interior layouts and limited exterior modifications

Office Standards & Workflow Development

•     Contribute to the studio's architectural detail library by organizing and expanding reusable content

•     Create AutoCAD and Revit templates for various project types to improve consistency and speed

•     Improve documentation workflows and drawing standards across the studio

•     Assist with miscellaneous drafting and technical problem-solving as needed

Project Types

•     High-end custom homes

•     Residential remodels and additions

•     Hillside and complex light wood-frame structures

•     Steel-supported cantilevers and long-span features

•     Restaurant tenant improvements

•     Miscellaneous drafting and technical systems work

Required Skills & Experience

•     Strong proficiency in AutoCAD — this is the studio's primary production platform

•     Working knowledge of Revit for reading and translating design information into production documents

•     Demonstrated experience producing permit-ready and construction document sets

•     Deep understanding of light wood-frame construction, building sections, and wall assemblies

•     Experience detailing light gauge steel framing and structural integration

•     Solid working knowledge of residential and commercial building codes and local jurisdiction requirements

•     Proven ability to read, interpret, and coordinate structural, MEP, and consultant drawings

•     Excellent organization, file management, and drawing standards discipline

•     Experience with custom residential projects and/or restaurant tenant improvements preferred

Ideal Candidate Qualities

•     Loves the art and discipline of architectural detailing — this is not a background task, it is the heart of the work

•     Finds genuine satisfaction in assembling drawing sets that are both technically rigorous and visually clear

•     Thinks deeply about how a building actually goes together from structure to finish

•     Cares equally about beauty, buildability, and code compliance

•     Highly organized and able to track multiple moving parts across several concurrent projects

•     Proactive in consultant coordination and capable of catching conflicts before they become field problems

•     Enjoys building systems, templates, and libraries that make the whole studio better over time

•     Strong communicator with contractors, consultants, and internal design teams

•     Takes ownership and pride in producing documents that reduce RFIs and field ambiguity
