About PRZ Development
PRZ Development is a Miami-based real estate development firm focused exclusively on residential projects. Unlike traditional firms, we are not architects or builders for hire; we are developers who design, build, and sell our own properties. Our team operates across all disciplines—architecture, interior design, construction, development, and sales—allowing us to maintain an uncompromising standard of quality and an accelerated project pace. Every project we undertake is self-initiated, self-financed, and self-executed.
Role Overview
We are seeking a disciplined and detail-oriented Architectural Intern to join our team starting in the Summer 2026 term. This position is intended as an initial evaluation period with the potential to transition into a part-time internship during the academic year, and a full-time position upon graduation.
The successful candidate must be able to work independently, utilizing previous project files and archives to replicate firm standards and design aesthetics for new developments.
Key Responsibilities
Independent Project Development: Reference and analyze previous project files to replicate drafting standards, styles, and details for current residential projects.
Design & Marketing: Assist in the creation of architectural design ideas and high-quality marketing collateral for internal and external use.
AI Integration: Utilize AI tools to improve workflow efficiency, research, and project visualization.
Technical Research: Conduct independent research to resolve technical hurdles and design challenges with minimal oversight.
Construction Coordination: Support the integration of construction sequences and material logistics into architectural designs to ensure project efficiency.
Software Requirements
Required Proficiency:
Drafting: AutoCAD (Strong understanding of layers and firm-specific standards).
Adobe Creative Suite: InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Acrobat.
BIM: Revit (Basic foundational skills).
Preferred (Willing to train):
Video Editing: Adobe After Effects (Basic ability to edit video and add graphic titles).
3D Modeling: SketchUp.
Qualifications
In-Person Requirement: Ability to work on-site at our Miami office location.
Currently enrolled in an accredited Architecture program (Florida International University or University of Miami preferred).
Proven ability to work in an independent setting efficiently.
Strong critical thinking skills and the ability to self-teach new software or processes through research.
Professional interest in the intersection of architecture, construction, and real estate development.
Why Join PRZ Development?
This role offers a unique opportunity to see the full development side of the architectural process within a vertically integrated firm. You will gain exposure to land acquisition, design, value management, and construction execution, seeing firsthand how high-end residential projects are delivered from initial concept to final sale.
