If you’re an ambitious individual looking for a career that is as rewarding as it is challenging, you’ve come to the right place.

About The Role

The Architectural Engineer is a shared resource for building envelope, layouts, and code compliance review across Hut 8's data center projects, supporting permitting and design coordination. Data center architecture is unglamorous and unforgiving: envelope performance, egress, and code compliance have to be right, water-tightness gates the whole MEP schedule, and the AHJ has to say yes - this role owns getting all three right across the portfolio.

Some of the key responsibilities you should expect are the following:

Architectural Design Review

Review architectural packages across projects - envelope assemblies, roofing systems, exterior skin, doors and hardware, interior layouts, and finishes - for code compliance, durability, and program standards. Verify layouts support equipment movement, maintenance access, and security layering.

Code, Egress & Life Safety

Own review of occupancy classification, egress design, fire-rated assemblies, and accessibility compliance. Coordinate life-safety plans with the Fire Protection Engineer and resolve code interpretation questions with AHJs.

Permitting & AHJ Coordination

Support building permit submittals and drive AHJ plan-review comments to resolution with design partners. Anticipate jurisdiction-specific requirements early enough to keep permits off the critical path.

Envelope & Water-Tightness

Review envelope details for constructability and performance - air/vapor barriers, roofing terminations, penetrations, and louver/equipment interfaces. Support the field on water-tightness milestones that gate MEP rough-in and equipment set.

Cross-Discipline Coordination

Coordinate architectural scope with structural, mechanical, electrical, fire protection, and security: penetrations, acoustics, equipment access paths, and roof loading zones.

Construction Support & Standards

Respond to architectural RFIs and submittals, support finish and punch milestones with CSA superintendents, and maintain architectural standards and typical details across the portfolio.

About You

• What we're looking for:
• 5+ years of architectural or architectural-engineering experience on industrial, mission-critical, or large commercial buildings.
• Strong working command of IBC, egress and life-safety design, fire-rated assemblies, and accessibility requirements.
• Envelope expertise: air/vapor barriers, roofing systems, and detailing that survives value engineering.
• Experience running AHJ plan review cycles to approval across multiple jurisdictions.
• Proficiency reviewing Revit-based packages, specifications, and construction submittals.
• RA or PE (or clear path to licensure) preferred; data center, semiconductor, or industrial portfolio a plus.
• Comfortable supporting several concurrent projects with shifting priorities.
• Collaborative working style across many disciplines and external design partners.
• Periodic site travel for envelope milestones and punch (typically 10-20%).
