Residential Architect 


Design Homes That Inspire and Perform

We're seeking a talented Residential Architect to produce beautiful, buildable, and code-compliant plans that bring our homeowners' visions to life. You'll collaborate with estimating, sales, and construction teams to create efficient designs that reduce RFIs and speed permits.

 

What You'll Do

  • Develop complete architectural drawing sets--site plans, floor plans, elevations, RCPs, and details.
  • Maintain and evolve our standard plan library and elevation styles (Farmhouse, Spanish, Contemporary).
  • Coordinate with structural, MEP, and civil consultants to integrate redlines and updates.
  • Ensure compliance with IBC/IRC, subdivision guidelines, accessibility, and energy codes.
  • Value-engineer designs for efficiency and constructability without sacrificing aesthetics.
  • Prepare permit-ready submittals and respond promptly to plan review comments.
  • Support construction with RFIs, clarifications, and as-built updates.
  • Manage drawing standards, title blocks, and version control.

 

What You Bring

  • B.Arch or M.Arch (licensure a plus but not required).
  • 5+ years of residential design experience (production homebuilding preferred).
  • Proficiency in Revit or AutoCAD, with experience in Bluebeam, SketchUp, or Enscape a plus.
  • Strong knowledge of wood framing, roof systems, and desert-climate detailing.
  • Portfolio demonstrating alignment with our architectural style and attention to detail.

 

Why Join Us

  • Competitive salary and benefits.
  • Collaborative, design-focused culture.
  • Opportunity to see your plans built across the region.
