Job description

We are seeking an Architectural Designer to support the design and delivery of complex, high-visibility projects within secure and highly regulated environments. This role is ideal for a detail-oriented designer who is proficient in Revit and enjoys collaborating across architecture, engineering, and construction disciplines.

Due to project requirements, U.S. citizenship is required.

What you’ll do

• Develop architectural design and construction-documentation packages from concept through construction administration.
• Produce accurate drawings, models, details, schedules, and presentation materials using Revit.
• Coordinate architectural models and drawings with structural project disciplines.
• Participate in model coordination, clash-detection reviews, and design coordination meetings.
• Help ensure documents align with applicable building codes, accessibility requirements, client standards, and project-specific design criteria.
• Support site visits, field verification, existing-condition documentation, and responses to construction-phase questions as needed.
• Maintain drawing quality, file organization, model standards, and document-control procedures.
• Work closely with project architects, project managers, engineers, consultants, and client representatives.

What we’re looking for

• Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, Architectural Technology, or a related field preferred.
• Experience supporting architectural design and production for commercial, institutional, aviation, federal, government, transportation, or similarly complex facilities is strongly preferred.
• Strong hands-on proficiency with Autodesk Revit is required.
• Experience with Navisworks for model coordination and clash detection is highly preferred.
• Familiarity with AutoCAD, Bluebeam, Autodesk Construction Cloud/BIM 360, and Microsoft Office is a plus.
• Working knowledge of construction documents, architectural detailing, building systems, and multidisciplinary coordination.
• Ability to manage multiple deadlines while maintaining strong attention to detail.
• Clear communication skills and the ability to work effectively in a collaborative project environment.
• Must be a U.S. Citizen due to the nature of the work.
• Ability to satisfy project-specific background-screening, badging, and site-access requirements.

Preferred experience

• Aviation, airport-terminal, airfield-support, federal, military, secure-facility, or other mission-critical project experience.
• BIM coordination experience in a multidisciplinary design environment.
• Exposure to construction administration, RFIs, submittals, field observations, or punch-list support.
• Progress toward architectural licensure is a plus, but not required.

Why consider this opportunity?

This position offers the chance to contribute to technically complex, high-impact infrastructure and secure-facility projects while working with an experienced multidisciplinary design team. You’ll have meaningful involvement in Revit-based production, consultant coordination, and the delivery of projects that demand a high level of precision and professionalism.
