Licensed Architect/Designer – Designbar
Company Name: DESIGNBAR
Website: https://www.designbaronline.com/
We’re hiring a Licensed Architect / Interior Designer.
Not a junior role.
Not siloed.
Not traditional.
At DESIGNBAR, we’re looking for a Licensed Architect (AIA) or NCIDQ-certified & Registered Interior Designer who is deeply fluent in the technical side of design and equally passionate about the future of the profession.
This role sits at the intersection of architecture, interiors, permitting, and technology.
You’ll be a great fit if you:
– Are a Licensed Architect (AIA) or NCIDQ-certified Interior Designer
– Have in-depth experience with construction documents, permitting, and working directly with local authorities
– Are comfortable owning the permitting process and guiding others through it
– Understand consultant workflows
– Enjoy being client-facing and involved across all project phases
– Work seamlessly between architecture and interiors
– Already use—or are genuinely curious about—AI tools (ChatGPT, Midjourney, Revit plugins, etc.) to streamline workflows and enhance design thinking
– Want to help shape what AI-integrated design looks like in real practice, not just conceptually
Role Details
Title: Licensed Architect / Interior Designer
Structure: Contract-to-Hire (1099 to start → potential W2 after 6 months)
Hours: 30–40 hours/week
Location: Charlotte, NC (In Office with remote flexibility)
Compensation: Based on experience and licensure
As a small, agile studio, this is a hands-on, high-impact role. You’ll touch every phase of a project—from concept to permitting to execution—and play a meaningful role in shaping how we work as a firm.
