Job description

Senior Architect | High-End Residential | Midtown Manhattan | $120,000 - $150,000

Location: New York, NY (Midtown Manhattan, on-site with 1 day remote after 90 days) Type: Full time, permanent Salary: $120,000 - $150,000 depending on experience

Most architects say they want to see their details built. In this studio you actually do. Custom single-family homes, real budgets, clients who care about the window detail as much as the floor plan, and a construction administration phase that doesn't get value-engineered into something you don't recognize.

The studio is a well-established Midtown practice working on high-end private residences across the Northeast and beyond. Small enough that you own your projects. Established enough that the work is consistent and the clients come back.

What you'll be doing

• Leading residential projects from schematic design through construction administration
• Running the consultant team and acting as a direct point of contact for the client
• Staying hands-on in the Revit model. This is a leadership seat, not a review seat
• Producing and overseeing full construction document sets: floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, building sections, wall sections, window and door details
• Mentoring intermediate and junior staff and setting the technical standard for the team

What you need

• 10-15 years in architecture, with strong high-end single-family residential experience
• Advanced Revit. The office runs on it and there's no capacity to train from scratch
• Adobe Creative Suite
• Professional degree in architecture. Licensed, or well into your AREs
• A portfolio that shows technical drawings, not only renderings and finished photography

Nice to have: Lumion, Rhino, landmarks or historic district experience.

What you get

401(k) with a 50% company match up to 3.5%, profit sharing, a discretionary year-end bonus, 10 paid holidays, one work-from-home day per week after 90 days, and a seat on projects you'll be glad to have in your portfolio.
