As part of a fast-growing, multi-functional team, you will help shape the future of advanced manufacturing infrastructure while driving design excellence, consistency, and scalable solutions across multiple U.S. sites. As Architectural Engineer, you will serve as the architectural authority, leading architectural scope from concept development through construction support, and partnering closely with internal engineering teams and design consultants. Semiconductor manufacturing experience is required for this vacancy.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead architectural design, planning, and construction support for semiconductor fabs, cleanrooms, central utility buildings, and associated support facilities across U.S. sites.
• Develop, review, and integrate architectural systems including building layouts, building envelopes, cleanroom environments, interiors, and space programming.
• Review architectural drawings, specifications, BIM models, and delegated design packages to ensure compliance with company standards and project requirements.
• Serve as the architectural subject matter expert, ensuring design quality, code compliance, life safety requirements, and alignment with operational needs throughout all project phases.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in Architecture, Architectural Engineering, or a related field.
• 5+ years of architectural design experience supporting semiconductor, advanced manufacturing, industrial, or other complex facility projects.
• Experience serving as Architect of Record (AOR), Resident Architect, or lead architectural subject area engineer on large capital projects.

Preferred Qualifications

• Multi-state architectural licensure, or eligibility to obtain additional state registrations.
• Experience developing facility standards, design guidelines, or enterprise-wide standardisation initiatives.

Why This Role?

• Act as the owner-side architectural authority on fabs, cleanrooms, and central utility buildings across multiple U.S. sites.
• Set design standards that carry across a fast-growing programme, not just a single project.
• Greenfield programme with major federal backing and a multi-decade build timeline.
• Highly competitive total package: base salary, performance bonus, strong RSU plan, and comprehensive benefits.
