Cline

https://www.clinedesignassoc.com/careers/

On June 1, 2026, Mark Odom Studio officially transitioned to the Cline brand as part of Cline’s growing national design platform. Clients will continue working with the same Austin-based team while gaining access to expanded interdisciplinary resources across architecture, interior design, landscape architecture, planning, branding, and FF&E procurement. We partner with clients to shape places people truly experience—homes, neighborhoods, communities, and workplaces that feel intentional, human, and rooted in purpose.

We’re always looking for curious, collaborative teammates: people who communicate clearly, take pride in craft, and believe the best ideas get better when disciplines work side-by-side. If you’re drawn to thoughtful design, strong relationships, and a culture that supports growth (and celebrates wins along the way), we’d love to connect.

Our Austin office is seeking a talented Architectural Designer to join our busy, growing team. We are particularly interested in candidates who feel that they have outgrown their current position and are looking for a higher level of responsibility and independence, and are excited to join a firm where they are supported and encouraged to grow.

• Work closely with the PA/PM on a project from beginning to end
• Under supervision may manage small projects from beginning to end, including consultant coordination
• Understand the roles and consultant types required for a specific project
• Observe project meetings and develop skills to prepare meeting notes
• Continue to work towards AXP completion and completing the ARE exam process
• Perform other duties that may assigned from time to time

What We Look For

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in Architecture from an accredited university
• 3+ years of experience
• Experience with multi-family and mixed-used projects a plus
