Job Description:

Be an Architect That Solves Real Problems

If you’re a licensed architect with 7–10 years of experience and a passion for solving building challenges, this is the kind of rate opportunity that can change your career.

We’re a collaborative, growing firm that’s trusted to uncover the why behind building failures, and then design the how to fix them. From historical preservation, to forensic evaluations to creative restoration design, every project brings variety, technical rigor, and real-world impact.

• Total Flexibility – No set hours. You have full autonomy to structure your day with early, late, split shifts. Whatever works best for you.
• Hybrid Schedule – Field work (~50%) and office work (~50%). You’re only asked to come into the office on Wednesdays. Get away from the desk and computer.
• Job Security & Stability – We’ve never laid off an employee. Not during the Great Recession. Not during Covid.
• Strong Compensation – Base salary of $100K–$120K. Bonuses are also awarded based on performance.
• Great Culture – Happy hours, fishing trips, holiday parties, March Madness brackets, and fantasy football all help make this a fun, supportive environment.
• Professional Growth – Learn from other licensed architects, attend lunch-and-learns, and get full support for licensure and continuing education.

What You’ll Do:

• Architectural investigations into building failures, ranging from leaking roofs to compromised facades.
• Work hand-in-hand with other architects, forensic engineers, and contractors to identify root causes and design solutions.
• Engage in new construction, renovations, and subject matter expert work.
• Collaborate with clients in both public and private sectors, and enjoy high levels of client interaction.
• Write clear, thorough technical reports documenting evaluations, findings, and recommendations.
• Contribute to both design and construction quality assurance throughout each phase of the project lifecycle.

What You Bring:

• Licensed Architect in the state of Minnesota.
• 7–10 years of architectural experience, ideally including some client-facing and construction-phase responsibilities.
• A desire to be in the field about half of the time, learning hands-on and seeing your solutions come to life.
• An interest in restoration, forensics, and problem-solving. It’s okay even if you’ve never worked in that space before.
• Writing skills for preparing detailed reports.
• Curiosity, independence, and a collaborative mindset.

What You’ll Gain:

• True work-life balance with unmatched scheduling flexibility.
• A secure role in a stable and financially sound company.
• Exposure to a wide variety of building types and real-world problems, where no two projects are the same.
• A career shift into a high-paying architecture niche with zero prior experience required.
• An opportunity to do meaningful work with visible, tangible results.
