Job description

Build the Homes People Dream About

Design Tech Homes is looking for an experienced Custom Residential Designer to join our Design team in Houston. This is an opportunity for a detail-oriented residential design professional who enjoys turning a homeowner’s vision into accurate, buildable custom home plans.

In this role, you will work directly with our sales team and homeowners to develop custom single-family architectural plans using Revit, while ensuring designs meet homeowner agreements, applicable codes, community requirements, and Design Tech Homes standards.


What You'll Do

  • Meet with sales team and homeowners to design and develop custom single-family architectural plans using Revit.
  • Complete all phases of custom home plans while maintaining accuracy and attention to detail.
  • Review community codes and requirements to ensure plans are compliant for permitting and Architectural Control Committee (ACC) approvals.
  • Apply current building codes and applicable requirements to custom residential plans.
  • Check plans for accuracy, regulatory compliance, internal standards, and design specifications.
  • Communicate project status and anticipated schedule changes to the Design and/or Assistant Design Manager.
  • Read and understand construction drawings and structural engineering plans.
  • Participate in team meetings, field visits, training, and other scheduled events.
  • Support the Design Department in resolving issues that arise during the completion of projects.
  • Perform administrative duties and other responsibilities as assigned.


What We're Looking For

Required:

  • College or technical degree in Architectural Design, Construction, or a related field.
  • Minimum 5 years of experience in residential design and construction drawings.
  • Proficiency with Revit and 3D design software.
  • Experience with software such as VisionRez, AutoCAD, Architectural Desktop, SketchUp, and/or other industry-standard 3D software.
  • Ability to read and understand construction drawings and structural engineering plans.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Exceptional attention to detail and a high degree of accuracy.
  • Ability to manage deadlines and work effectively in a deadline-sensitive environment.


What Success Looks Like

Success in this position means consistently delivering accurate, code-compliant custom home plans within the Design Department's established time frames while maintaining clear communication with the team and homeowners.


Why This Role Matters

Every custom home begins with a plan. Your work will help transform a homeowner's ideas into a set of architectural plans that can ultimately become the home they envisioned.

You'll be part of a collaborative Design team where accuracy, communication, craftsmanship, and continuous learning are essential to delivering a quality custom-home experience
