Architect

About the Role

A Mumbai-based interior design studio, working across healthcare, residential and hospitality, is hiring two architects. Each reports to the Senior Architect of the assigned team and runs the day-to-day of two projects, from early design through live construction. Design contribution is expected from the first phase, not after a stretch of drafting.

What You'll Do

• Handle the day-to-day of two projects at different stages
• Coordinate in three directions: consultants and contractors, the client on routine matters, and upward to the Senior, the Lead and, when critical, the Principal
• Coordinate MEP, structural and other consultants on live projects; align with the design team on early-stage work
• Contribute design ideas and develop them with the Senior and the Lead
• Produce drawings, details, models and presentation material to the studio's standard
• Prepare and deliver presentations, and communicate ideas within the team
• Guide interns and junior architects (one to two years) on routine tasks
• Accompany the Senior on site and progressively handle routine queries
• Flag red flags to the Senior early, and to the Principal where critical
• Scale from two projects to more as you settle in

Must Have

• 3 to 5 years in architecture
• A studio of similar size (around 20 to 30 people or more) with direct Principal or Lead exposure and end-to-end project work, not a single task area
• Consultant and contractor coordination on at least one live project
• Personal design contribution on completed work
• AutoCAD and SketchUp; Photoshop and InDesign; MS Office or Google Workspace
• Fluent English and clear communication
• Based in Mumbai or genuinely settled in Maharashtra

Good to Have

• Hospitality, healthcare, institutional or residential-tower exposure
• Experience guiding interns or junior architects
• Basic familiarity with AI tools such as ChatGPT or Gemini

Not a Fit If

• Large-firm background confined to a single task area, without end-to-end exposure or direct Principal or Lead contact
• You depend on the Senior or the Lead for routine decisions
• Strong technical executor with no design contribution to show
• Weak communication that hampers coordination with consultants, site and team
• You wait for instructions rather than think about the whole project
• You resist non-standard forms or questioning the conventional answer
• Short temper or a raised voice under people or site pressure
• Relocating from outside Maharashtra without a strong reason to stay in Mumbai
• You want a relaxed or contained schedule

Compensation & Work Arrangement

₹5.00–8.00 LPA (CTC). Work from office, Mumbai, Monday to Friday, 10 AM to 7 PM.
