• Learn from and coach others and support developing teammates through short feedback loops to drive standards adoption, reduce recurring issues, and improve throughput.


• Communicate clear status, roadblocks, and next steps to the project team and/or manager with timely follow‑through, documenting decisions and action items as directed.


• Work with others and cooperate effectively to resolve issues within assigned scope, implement decisions consistently in deliverables, and give and receive feedback professionally.


• Manage assigned scope to meet milestones and hours‑to‑plan, escalating scope/time risks early with clear recovery options and documented next steps.


• Submit accurate, on‑time weekly timesheets for client billing and understand how timekeeping and utilization impact project accounting, fee performance, and profitability.

Qualifications

• Bachelor of Architecture degree (NAAB accredited program preferred)


• 3+ years in the design and architecture industry
