Senior Project Architect — Orlando, FL

Build what matters next. As a Senior Project Architect in Orlando, you’ll lead complex, high-visibility projects from concept through construction, shaping environments that improve how people live, work, and heal. You’ll set the design vision, orchestrate multidisciplinary teams, and deliver technical excellence that clients value—all while advancing your career with meaningful responsibility, autonomy, and growth.

Why this Senior Project Architect role is a standout
  • Lead signature projects end to end: Own schematic design through CA on impactful civic, healthcare, higher-ed, mixed-use, and government work.
  • Real influence, real outcomes: Your design and technical decisions drive quality, schedule, and client satisfaction—no “paper leadership.”
  • Competitive total rewards: Robust salary, comprehensive medical/dental/vision, 401(k) with company match, PTO, and paid holidays.
  • Stability with on-site engagement: Be embedded with your team and stakeholders on-site in Orlando to accelerate decisions and quality.
  • Grow faster with support: Mentorship, leadership-track opportunities, and access to proven tools, standards, and best practices.
  • Build a legacy in Central Florida: Join an experienced AEC community delivering projects across the region and beyond.

What you’ll do as the Senior Project Architect
  • Lead project delivery from schematic design through construction administration, ensuring technical rigor, code compliance, and design integrity.
  • Translate client goals into clear design solutions, documentation, and detailing that bid and build cleanly.
  • Coordinate and integrate consultant disciplines (MEP, structural, civil, landscape, specialty) across all phases.
  • Review and respond to submittals, RFIs, shop drawings, addenda, and bulletins; maintain decisive CA logs.
  • Direct production teams, set BIM/CAD standards adherence, and uphold QA/QC processes at each milestone.
  • Plan and manage schedules, deliverables, and resources, balancing quality, scope, and budget.
  • Present to clients and stakeholders; facilitate work sessions, user groups, and jurisdictional reviews.
  • Mentor, delegate, and elevate team members—modeling accountability, craft, and communication.

What you bring
  • Bachelor’s (or higher) in Architecture; professional licensure strongly preferred.
  • 10+ years of architectural experience with demonstrated project leadership through CA.
  • Proven ability to deliver coordinated, constructible documents and details across building types.
  • Mastery of codes, specifications, building systems, and permitting pathways.
  • Proficiency with Revit/BIM and contemporary documentation workflows; familiarity with QA/QC standards.
  • Strong judgment, decision-making, and client-service orientation; calm, organized, and proactive.
  • Collaborative mindset with the confidence to lead and the humility to listen.

Impact you can see
  • Better patient experiences and efficient clinical flows in healthcare work.
  • Resilient, code-forward solutions that reduce lifecycle risk and change orders.
  • Clearer documents that cut RFI volume and compress schedules.
  • A trusted voice at the table—owners, contractors, and consultants seek your input.

Location and market context
  • Primary location: Orlando, FL (Central Florida projects and regional opportunities).
  • You’ll collaborate with partners, consultants, and clients across Florida markets connected to Orlando.
  • Many clients operate statewide—experience engaging stakeholders in Orlando is a plus.

How this role accelerates your career
  • Lead marquee pursuits and first-of-kind program types—experience that recruiters and clients value.
  • Present to executive stakeholders and AHJs—build your reputation and network across Orlando.
  • Coach emerging architects and shape standards—your practices become the firm’s best practices.

Compensation and benefits snapshot
  • Competitive salary aligned to Senior Project Architect scope and Central Florida market data.
  • Comprehensive health benefits, HSA/FSA options, 401(k) with match.
  • Generous PTO, paid holidays, and professional development support (AIA, NCARB, CEUs, licensure).
