Job description

Architectural Technologist

Department: Operations

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: Client

Compensation: ₱100,000 - ₱120,000 / month

Description

We are seeking an experienced Architectural Technologist to join our team on a permanent, full-time basis, supporting a portfolio of complex international projects. In this role, you will take developed architectural concepts and transform them into highly detailed, coordinated, and buildable technical packages, using Revit as a design and problem-solving tool—not simply for documentation.

You will work closely with senior architectural leadership to support technical design development, design reviews, and multidisciplinary coordination. This is a highly technical position suited to someone who is confident working independently and can take ownership of complex architectural details from design development through construction.

We are not looking for a CAD drafter. We are looking for a technically strong architectural professional who can critically assess construction details, resolve complex junctions, identify coordination issues, and develop practical solutions that balance architectural intent with real-world buildability.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and maintain accurate, coordinated Revit BIM models through developed design, construction documentation, and site coordination stages.
• Model complex and bespoke architectural elements, including:
  • Steel and extruded aluminum primary structures
  • Tensile membrane envelopes
  • Insulated composite panel systems
  • Aluminum and glazing systems
  • Timber cladding and joinery finishes
  • Decks, wet areas, and stonework
  • Internal finishes, doors, windows, and thresholds
  • Other bespoke architectural elements
• Produce GA plans, elevations, sections, and enlarged construction details directly from the model.
• Develop 3D junctions and interface studies to resolve non-standard construction conditions.
• Proactively identify and resolve clashes and coordination issues across architecture, structural, and MEP disciplines.
• Incorporate consultant, supplier, and fabricator information into the coordinated BIM environment.
• Maintain model organization, naming conventions, drawing standards, and agreed BIM protocols.
• Support the design team with 3D studies of bespoke details and material interfaces.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

• 8+ years of architectural technical experience, with meaningful exposure to:
  • Luxury hospitality
  • Safari lodges
  • High-end residential projects
  • Bespoke architecture
• Demonstrated experience resolving complex architectural junctions on built projects, beyond visualization or concept development.
• Experience coordinating architectural work with structural and MEP disciplines.
• Comfortable working with unconventional and bespoke construction systems.
• • Advanced proficiency in Revit, including working within and extending established project models, families, and drawing environments.
  • Strong AutoCAD skills; familiarity with Rhino, Enscape, Twinmotion, Navisworks, or BIM 360 is an advantage.
  • Working knowledge of:
    • Steel and extruded aluminum structural detailing
    • Tensile membrane interfaces
    • Insulated composite panel systems
  • Strong understanding of tolerances, waterproofing, drainage, thermal performance, fixing strategies, and construction sequencing.
  • Strong eye for proportion, material junctions, and architectural finishes.
• • Detail-oriented: Able to carefully assess complex junctions and understand how individual components work together.
  • Practical: Can distinguish between a detail that looks good on paper and one that can realistically be built.
  • Design-sensitive: Able to preserve architectural intent and finish quality while addressing technical requirements.
  • Proactive: Comfortable identifying coordination issues and proposing solutions rather than waiting for instructions.
  • Independent: Able to take ownership of work packages and deliver them with limited day-to-day supervision.
  • Collaborative: Comfortable working with architects, engineers, consultants, fabricators, and site teams across different time zones and locations.

Benefits

• Above market salary
• HMO on Day 1 for principal and two dependents
• Government-mandated benefits
• Performance-based Incentives
• Quarterly Company Events
• 1,000 PHP De Minimis
• Equipment and software provided
