Key Responsibilities:

1. Design & Development

• Concept to Completion: Lead the projects' design process, creating compelling architectural concepts that balance aesthetic vision with functional and code requirements.
• BIM Modeling: Develop and manage complex ArchiCAD models. You will be responsible for maintaining "model health," ensuring proper layering, classification, and attribute management.
• Visual Communication: Produce high-quality drawings and 3D visualizations to communicate design intent for client presentations and municipal reviews.

2. Technical Documentation

• Construction Documents (CDs): Translate design intent into comprehensive, buildable construction sets.
• Detailing: Develop custom architectural details to meet technical, constructability and aesthetic goals.
• Specifications: Coordinate drawing sets with written specifications to ensure material and assembly accuracy.

3. Coordination & Project Leadership

• Interdisciplinary Coordination: Serve as the primary point of contact for MEP, structural, and civil engineers. Lead the BIM coordination process to detect and resolve system clashes early.
• Project Standards: Maintain and enforce office ArchiCAD templates and BIM standards across the project team.

Required Qualifications

• Experience: 5–8 years of experience in an architectural firm (Residential, Commercial, or Mixed-Use experience preferred).
• ArchiCAD Mastery: Expert-level proficiency is non-negotiable. You should be comfortable with GDL objects, D5 rendering (or Twinmotion/Enscape integrations), and Teamwork environments.
• Technical Knowledge: Deep understanding of building codes (IBC/ADA), zoning bylaws, and sustainable design principles.
• Project Management: Proven ability to manage multiple project deadlines simultaneously while maintaining high attention to detail.
• Education: Professional degree in Architecture (B.Arch or M.Arch) from an accredited institution.
