Project Architect
DesignLeveL is a firm nationally recognized as a leader in adult, pediatric, and animal healthcare planning and design. Dedicated to creating functional and inspiring spaces, our mission is to improve the healing process, promote opportunities for quality patient care, and balance the potential of architecture to shape the human experience with the realities of building. Our projects are located across the United States, Canada, and the Middle East.
Job Descriptions:
DesignLeveL is looking for a design professional eager to undertake the design, production, and delivery of architectural
projects while also learning about the function of operating an architecture firm. Working under the direction of the project
leader, responsibilities will include following a project through from conceptual design through construction administration.
Duties including but not restricted to detailing drawings, specification work, assisting with RFI’s, submittals, and field work will
be part of daily tasks. By exercising your strong analytical and problem-solving skills, you will work collaboratively with team
members in the pursuit of producing the quality of project documents DesignLeveL is come to be known for.
DesignLeveL is well established and growing. Here you’ll get the opportunity to work closely with clients, consultants, and
colleagues witnessing every aspect of project development and execution. Unlike larger firms where positions tend to be
siloed for employees, DesignLeveL also creates opportunities for its employees to grasp the full understanding of what it
takes to be awarded a project and see it through to completion. In addition to the traditional project design process
indicated above, you’ll be involved with marketing through project closeout, seeing the process in a much more wholistic
manner than what is typical at a large firm. Our aim is to exercise balance, harness creativity and critical thinking, and work
smarter, not harder.
