• Assist with unit layouts, code-related considerations, and coordination typical of multifamily residential work, including affordable housing projects.
• Prepare and support permit sets, ensuring compliance with zoning and applicable regulations.
• Collaborate closely with consultants and internal team members to coordinate drawings and resolve design and technical issues.
• Work on multiple active projects simultaneously in a production-focused environment, managing time and priorities effectively.

• Accredited degree in Architecture (preferred).
• Strong communication skills suited to a small, collaborative team environment.
• Ability to take direction and execute tasks efficiently and accurately.
• Portfolio demonstrating strong technical production work.

• The studio operates out of a co-working building owned by a key client, with the firm occupying a full floor.
• The workload is driven by an active pipeline of ground-up multifamily residential projects, creating a fast-paced, production-focused atmosphere where team members are expected to contribute quickly and take on multiple responsibilities.
