About this role
Cannondesign is seeking a Designer III to join its architecture practice as a mid-level contributor on multidisciplinary project teams. Based remotely but affiliated with either the Chicago or Pittsburgh office, you'll work under the direction of licensed architects and project leadership, handling conceptual design through full architectural documentation. Your work will span from exterior to interior solutions, requiring close collaboration with interior designers and subject matter experts. You'll prepare presentation materials and 3D visualizations for client meetings, manage design to budget and owner requirements, mentor junior staff, and occasionally travel for site visits.
The role demands at least six years of professional architectural experience and a degree in architecture or a related field. You'll need proficiency in Revit, Bluebeam, Microsoft Office, and Adobe Creative Suite, plus demonstrated expertise in real-time rendering software like Enscape, Twinmotion, or V-Ray—your portfolio should showcase this visualization work. Additional skills in Rhino or comparable 3D modeling, and familiarity with computational design tools like Grasshopper, are valued. U.S. architectural registration and LEED accreditation are preferred but not required. Strong communication, presentation, and organizational abilities are essential, as is a compelling creative portfolio.
The position offers a salary range of $73,800 to $92,200 annually, with discretionary bonuses possible. Benefits include medical, dental, and vision coverage, flexible spending accounts, paid time off, flexible scheduling, remote work options, and a 401k plan.
