Architectural Representation Specialist

Archive Owl is an architect-led documentation studio and emerging digital platform rethinking how buildings are documented, represented, and preserved.

We create precise, design-ready as-built drawings, 3D scans, and digital property records for architects, interior designers, and property owners. Our work brings together architectural representation, reality capture, historical research, and emerging technology to create enduring records of the built environment.

We believe the documentation of architecture deserves the same rigor, care, and attention to detail as its design.

We are building a team of individuals who share that conviction.

We are seeking an exceptionally curious and visually discerning individual with a deep appreciation for architecture, architectural history, and the art of representation.

Someone who can appreciate the beauty of a historic measured drawing, recognize the nuances of a thoughtfully composed architectural plan, and envision how emerging technologies might transform the way we document and preserve buildings.

You may be an emerging architect, architectural researcher, graduate student, or experienced professional. We are less interested in conventional credentials than in exceptional curiosity, visual intelligence, technical aptitude, and an uncommon commitment to quality.

Working directly with our founder and architectural team, you will help shape Archive Owl's visual language, drawing standards, and approach to architectural documentation while exploring new methods of recording and understanding the built environment.

This is an opportunity to contribute to a growing company at the intersection of architecture, history, design, and technology.
