Who We Are:

We design places where people love to be together.

Populous is a global design firm that began with a singular focus: to draw people together around the things they love, through experiences that capture all the senses, amplifying the atmosphere of excitement and pure joy shared in human moments.

We've designed and delivered some of the world's most memorable civic, sports and entertainment buildings, from iconic stadia to ground-breaking live music venues. Populous is where architects and designers of all kinds create moments bigger than ourselves. We offer the best of both worlds: the resources and impact of the design giants and the tightly knit atmosphere and growth opportunities of smaller firms.

What We Offer:

Professional & Personal Development Programs + Summer Hours + Hybrid Schedule + Paid Architect Licensure & Certifications Exams + Wedding Pay + Charitable Match Program + Market Leading Wellness Health and Welfare Benefits.

Who We Are Looking For:

Our preferred candidate will have prior experience in the AEC industry, and an interest in working in a dynamic global design environment with a diverse range of public assembly building types, including sports venues, convention centers, and transportation facilities.

  • Foster ongoing communication through team meetings, minutes, and update memos to the project team, including consultants.
  • Ensure project documentation complies with Populous policy standards.
  • Coordinate team efforts to complete projects promptly and successfully while adhering to schedules and budgets.
  • Oversee construction administration, including processing submittals, RFIs, and other project documentation during construction.
  • Provide office leadership, including coaching and mentoring staff for professional development.
  • Consistently review work and communicate needs and concerns to project staff.
  • Define staff requirements for projects as needed or directed.
  • Perform all other duties and responsibilities as required.
Requirements For Success:
  • Strong relationship-building and problem-solving skills.

  • Expertise in guiding design, construction methodology, material applications, and manufacturer-supplier appropriateness.
  • Solid understanding of architectural building systems.
  • Thorough knowledge of project work plans, schedules, staffing, and budget management.
  • Advanced understanding of sustainability practices, integrated design, and LEED guidelines.
  • Proficiency in Autodesk Revit; familiarity with Newforma preferred.
