Conduct measured field surveys across Nassau, Suffolk, and the 5 Boroughs.

Assist with design presentations, including renderings, sketches, and interior finish boards.

Prepare drawing sets for permitting, bidding, and construction.

Contribute to design discussions and help refine project solutions.

Currently pursuing or completed a B.S. in Architecture, with 2+ years of drafting or design documentation experience.

Strong attention to detail, curiosity, initiative, and a collaborative mindset.

Ability to self-manage, problem-solve, and follow through.

What Makes This Opportunity Unique

Work directly alongside the Principal Architect with mentorship and professional development.

Exposure to a broad range of project types and phases, not siloed drafting.

Opportunity to grow in responsibility, hours, and creative involvement over time.

A meaningful role in a growing, design-driven studio.
