Edmonton and Area
Join a purpose-driven, female-led architecture studio designing smart, community-focused housing and entertainment spaces.
Rootstock Architecture is a growing Edmonton-based firm specializing in multi-family, mixed-use, and care-oriented projects. We’re known for our collaborative approach, technical excellence, and commitment to thoughtful, buildable design.
Why Join Rootstock?
At Rootstock, we’re building more than buildings — we’re building a practice where talented people can do their best work without sacrificing their lives outside the office.
We are a  female-led studio  committed to collaboration, empathy, and design excellence. We value voices at every level and believe in creating space for personal and professional growth
We design meaningful housing, entertainment and community-oriented projects that contribute to a better built environment. But what makes us different is how we work: collaborative, flexible, innovative, and human. Here’s what you can expect:
Creative Autonomy  – You’ll be trusted to lead technical work and help shape how we operate — not just follow instructions.
Future-Focused Practice  – We're actively integrating  AI tools, generative design, and automation  into our workflows. Your curiosity and input are welcome.
Growth Without Burnout  – We offer a clear path to grow into leadership roles — without endless overtime or red tape.
Flexible & Supportive Culture  – Hybrid work, flexible hours, and a team that respects your time and boundaries.
Tight-Knit, Low-Ego Team  – You won’t get lost in the crowd. Your ideas and expertise matter here.

Producing detailed drawing sets for permits and construction

Interpreting and applying building codes and zoning bylaws to ensure regulatory compliance across multiple jurisdictions
Leading Revit model development and documentation in a cloud-based collaboration environment
Exploring and implementing  AI-assisted workflows  (e.g., code audits, drawing automation, generative massing tools) to enhance efficiency and design intelligence
Attending meetings and periodic site visits to support construction and resolve technical issues in the field (optional but a great way to grow!)
Contributing to internal innovation efforts, including workflow improvements, tech stack development, and peer learning
What You Bring
Diploma in Architectural Technology  from an accredited institution
3–7 years of experience  in architectural practice, with a focus on construction documents and consultant coordination
Proficiency in  Revit (AutoCAD basics) , with experience in  cloud collaboration platforms  (e.g., BIM
360, ACC)
Strong Knowledge of  Alberta Building Code , NBC, and zoning bylaws
Demonstrated experience with  wood-frame construction , building envelope detailing, and technical coordination
Strong written and verbal communication skills, and the ability to manage tasks independently
A proactive, solution-oriented mindset and collaborative working style
Interest in emerging technologies and  curiosity about using AI, automation, or generative tools  to improve quality and efficiency (experience with Dynamo, Veras, Test Fit, etc. is a plus)
