Hiring Job Captains In Long Island

About the Opportunity

Step into a pivotal role as a Job Captain / Architectural Designer with a growing, design‑driven firm where your ideas, initiative, and technical skills will directly influence project success. If you thrive in a collaborative environment, enjoy leading aspects of the design documentation process, and are looking for a place to truly advance your career, this role offers the challenge and momentum you’re seeking.

You’ll have the opportunity to work on diverse architectural projects—particularly in the retail and restaurant sectors—while contributing to a team that values creativity, precision, and professional growth.


What You’ll Do

  • Develop clear, accurate, and high‑quality Construction Documents
  • Work side‑by‑side with the Project Manager and Drafters to solve design and coordination challenges
  • Review drawings, create redlines, and ensure all documentation meets firm and code standards
  • Lead and organize site visits, field surveys, and project assessments
  • Bring proactive energy—contributing ideas, anticipating needs, and showing the drive to grow into higher‑level roles

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture
  • 3–6 years of professional architectural experience, preferably in technical roles
  • Strong proficiency in Revit and AutoCAD
  • Solid understanding of building codes and zoning regulations
  • Proven experience preparing Construction Documents

Bonus Skills

  • Experience in Construction Administration
  • Experience in Retail and Restaurant project types
  • Familiarity with Bluebeam and Photoshop
  • Architectural licensure (or progress toward it) is a plus

Why You’ll Love Working Here

Join a tight‑knit 15‑person architectural team located in Huntington Station, NY—small enough to be collaborative and supportive, yet established enough to offer stability and exciting project variety.

What you can expect:

  • In‑office teamwork, 5 days a week, with opportunities for nationwide site travel
  • Clear growth potential—the firm’s leadership has advanced from Job Captain themselves, proving there’s room to rise
  • A culture of learning: internal training, study groups for licensure, vendor presentations, and shared knowledge
  • A fun, connected environment with happy hours, team events, and company‑sponsored programs
