Job Description

The Architectural Team (TAT), based in Chelsea, MA and nationally recognized for design excellence and collaborative client relationships, is seeking a mid-level Architectural Designer to join our award-winning practice. For over 50 years, we’ve delivered innovative, contextually sensitive designs in housing, senior living, hospitality, commercial/mixed-use, historic preservation, and adaptive reuse. This is a hands-on role for a skilled designer who thrives in a collaborative setting and can confidently contribute to projects from schematic design through construction documents.

Position Overview

In this role, you’ll work closely with senior staff and collaborate across disciplines, contributing to all phases of a project. We’re looking for a designer with strong creative and technical skills, the ability to coordinate complex requirements, and a collaborative spirit.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design & Collaboration – Partner with senior staff to develop creative, contextually responsive design solutions. Prepare presentations, translate concepts into detailed documentation, and collaborate with team members, consultants, and clients to ensure quality.
  • Project Execution – Contribute to projects from master planning through construction, coordinating between disciplines and integrating building systems, zoning, and code requirements into design solutions. Assist in preparing test fit and entitlement packages. Participate in design reviews and occasional public presentations as part of the project team.
  • Client & Project Support – Support senior staff in preparing materials for client meetings, proposals, and interviews. Occasionally attend client or public meetings with senior leadership.
  • Mentorship – Provide guidance to junior designers on design tools, drawing standards, and project workflows, contributing to a collaborative, learning-focused culture.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s or master’s degree in architecture.
  • 6 -10 years of professional experience in an architectural office.
  • Registration preferred but not required.
  • Excellent visual communication skills, including proficiency with Revit, SketchUp, and Adobe Creative Cloud (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, etc.)
  • Strong technical knowledge to integrate building systems and structural requirements into design solutions.
  • Experience in large-scale housing, senior living, hospitality, commercial/mixed-use, historic preservation, or adaptive reuse preferred.
  • Sustainability accreditation (CPHC, LEED, WELL) a plus
  • Collaborative mindset and flexibility to travel.

Why Join Us

At TAT, you’ll work on impactful projects for national-caliber clients, see designs through from concept to completion, and take on real responsibility in a supportive and collaborative workplace. Our culture of trust and long-standing client relationships offers opportunities for professional growth while delivering work that is meaningful, well-crafted, and enduring. We offer a competitive benefits package, including paid vacation and holidays, health and dental insurance, life and disability coverage, and a 401(k)-retirement plan.
