Architectural Designer

Location: Remote

Schedule: Full-Time (40 Hours/Week — within an 8:00 AM–6:00 PM US Eastern Time window)

Compensation: $2,000 USD monthly rate

Our client is a Michigan-based architecture practice working across healthcare, dental, commercial, hospitality, and industrial project types. The firm takes a collaborative, practical approach to design, with an emphasis on responsive service and coordinated construction documents. This role supports the practice with existing-condition documentation, Revit modeling, space planning, and construction documents.

The Architectural Designer will handle design-side production for renovation projects in dental, medical, office, and other commercial spaces, with construction documentation making up most of the work. The role starts from established project templates and documented prototype packages rather than from scratch, and existing conditions are captured remotely by navigating Matterport virtual walkthroughs and taking dimensions. The ideal candidate is an architecturally trained Revit user who can work largely independently within firm standards, while code review, permitting, and construction administration remain with others.

• Review web-based Matterport scans by navigating the virtual walkthrough and taking dimensions
• Create existing-condition drawings and Revit models, including existing and new phasing
• Develop proposed layouts and space plans for dental, medical, office, and other commercial uses
• Produce floor plans, furniture layouts, reflected ceiling plans, and lighting layouts, typically using standard 2-by-2 ceiling systems
• Place electrical receptacles, switches, outlets, and other fixtures according to provided guidelines
• Prepare and maintain Revit models and drawing sets through design development and construction documentation
• Develop architectural details and coordinate drawings and schedules from pre-templated standards
• Work from established project templates and documented prototype packages
• Make design decisions within concepts and direction provided by the firm
• Access and navigate project files within the firm’s cloud BIM environment

• Participate in client or owner presentations once an established working relationship is in place

• Minimum 3 years of professional experience in an architecture firm
• Professional degree in architecture or a related field
• Strong Revit proficiency, including model development, existing and new phasing, and construction documentation (non-negotiable)

• Working knowledge of building systems, construction methods, and architectural detailing
• Strong written, verbal, and graphic communication skills
• Ability to manage multiple assignments, ask thoughtful questions, and follow through on commitments
• Ability to work independently on assigned tasks and recognize when additional guidance is needed
• Clear spoken English, sufficient to communicate easily on daily calls and video meetings
• Own working computer
• Available full-time within an 8:00 AM–6:00 PM US Eastern Time window to allow overlap with the principal
