Role Description

We are seeking a Residential Remodel Architectural Designer to support all aspects of remodeling design from homeowner consultation and field measures through material selections and construction-ready plans. This is an in-office position based in the Denver, CO metro area. Remote or hybrid arrangements are not available. Current, hands-on residential remodeling experience is required. This is not a commercial architecture role. Candidates without residential design-build remodeling backgrounds will not be considered.

• Prepare construction-ready drawing sets


• Apply CAD software confidently


• Collaborate with homeowners on material selections and design details


• Ensure alignment with residential building codes and permitting requirements


• Prepare documentation for production handoff


• Coordinate internally to maintain project accuracy and consistency

Qualifications

• Minimum 5+ years of residential remodeling design experience


• Direct experience within residential design-build environments required


• Demonstrated ability to produce construction-ready remodeling drawings


• Strong CAD competency, ideally with Chief Architect software, but AutoCAD and Sketchup are good skills that cross translate well into Chief Architect.


• Familiarity with residential codes and permitting requirements


• Professional communication skills with homeowners


• Highly organized; able to manage multiple active projects


• Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook)


• Ability to work full-time in-office in the Denver metro area / M-F

What Success Looks Like

• Plans are detailed, buildable, and code-aware


• Homeowners feel confident and informed throughout design


• Potential field challenges are addressed within drawings


• Projects transition smoothly from design to construction
