With 47 years of leadership across regional and multi-state levels, he has devoted his career to the design of churches, retail, office, hotel, educational, recreational, multi-family, senior living, government facilities, and with a special emphasis on residential projects.

Extraordinary Homes, Inc. is our design-build sister company specializing in modern-style custom homes — taking every project from the first concept sketch all the way through construction completion. Both firms are based in Olathe, Kansas.

Role Description

This is a full-time, on-site Architectural Design Professional role based in Olathe, KS. The successful candidate will work across both Webster Architects and Extraordinary Homes, gaining exposure to the full arc of a project — from design development through construction administration. Day-to-day responsibilities include preparing architectural drawings, construction documents, and design presentations using AutoCAD; assisting with schematic design and design development for custom residential projects; coordinating with clients, contractors, and consultants throughout the design and construction process; participating in project meetings, site visits, and client presentations; supporting permit and construction document sets in compliance with applicable codes; and assisting with material selection, specifications, and project documentation.

Qualifications

• 2 to 5 years of professional experience in architecture or architectural design.
• Proficiency in AutoCAD required; experience with Revit or SketchUp is a plus.
• Prior residential design experience is helpful — we will train the right candidate.
• A degree in Architecture or a related field is preferred but not required.
• Professional licensure is not required; candidates actively pursuing ARE licensure are welcome.
• Ability to coordinate with contractors, consultants, and clients in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to balance design quality, code compliance, and project schedules.
• Genuine passion for residential architecture and a desire to see your work get built.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary commensurate with experience — details discussed during interview.
• Full-time, permanent position with a well-established, multi-state firm.
• Exposure to both licensed architectural practice and design-build project delivery.
• Direct mentorship from a principal with decades of residential and commercial experience across nine states.
• A close-knit team where your contributions are visible and valued from day one.
• Based in Olathe, KS — a thriving community in the heart of the Kansas City metro.
