(Only QUALIFIED Healthcare Professionals accepted) Professional - Project Architect – Albany, NY Area
Municipal & Federal Projects | $85,000–$115,000+ | Full-Time | Excellent Benefits Package
We are conducting a confidential search on behalf of an established multidisciplinary architecture and engineering firm located in a northern suburb of Albany, NY.
We are seeking an experienced Project Architect who wants to do more than remain in a narrowly defined production role. This position offers the opportunity to work across the full project lifecycle, take increasing ownership of projects, coordinate with multiple engineering disciplines, contribute to project management, and mentor junior staff.
The ideal candidate is a Registered Architect, or an architect actively progressing toward registration, with 5–10+ years of broad, practical experience across multiple project types and phases. The client is particularly interested in candidates who combine strong technical capabilities with the ability and desire to grow into greater project leadership responsibility.
What You’ll Do:
You will work as part of a collaborative architecture and building systems team supporting a diverse mix of municipal and federal projects.
Support and lead architectural projects from initial programming through design and construction
Prepare architectural assessments, facility studies, feasibility studies, and programming reports
Evaluate existing buildings and document architectural conditions and recommendations
Perform building code reviews for new and existing facilities
Develop architectural drawings, details, and construction documents
Work in Revit and AutoCAD
Coordinate with structural, engineering, drafting, specialty consultant, and other project disciplines
Serve as a lead architect on multidisciplinary assignments as experience and project needs warrant
Contribute to project planning, coordination, and management
Communicate effectively with project team members, consultants, and stakeholders
Help guide and mentor less-experienced team members
Maintain hands-on technical and production involvement while taking on increasing project ownership
Prepare clear, professional technical reports and written documentation
The role combines technical architecture, project delivery, multidisciplinary coordination, and leadership development rather than focusing exclusively on drafting or production.
What We’re Looking For:
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Architecture
5–10+ years of relevant architectural experience
Registered Architect strongly preferred
Candidates who are not yet licensed should be actively taking the architectural registration exams and close to completing the licensure process
Broad, practical experience across multiple architectural project phases
Experience with existing-building assessments and feasibility studies
Understanding of New York State building codes and regulations
Experience with Revit and AutoCAD
Strong technical writing and documentation skills
Strong verbal and written communication skills
Ability to manage priorities across multiple projects and deadlines
Ability to collaborate effectively within multidisciplinary design teams
Interest in growing into additional project management, project ownership, and mentoring responsibilities
U.S. citizenship or authorization to work in the United States without employer sponsorship
The client values breadth of experience over years alone. Architects who have worked across a variety of project types, building systems, project phases, and responsibilities are likely to be especially competitive.
Why Consider This Opportunity?
This is an attractive opportunity for an architect who wants greater visibility and responsibility without giving up the resources of a larger multidisciplinary organization.
The architecture team is relatively small and works within a broader building systems environment that includes structural and drafting resources.
