$70,000 - $100,000 annually Pay:
Fogarty Finger (FF) is an interdisciplinary design studio of over 145 architects and designers dedicated to placemaking within the urban built environment. Founded in 2003, FF is responsible for many prominent residential and commercial projects throughout the United States in locations including New York City, Atlanta, and Boston.
We believe beautiful spaces build great experiences. Our projects are equally evocative and pragmatic - designed to be enjoyed by everyone. We design for the long term and create thoughtful buildings and interiors with timeless appeal.
About The Role
FF is seeking a talented Intermediate Designer to join our growing Boston office. You will work closely with senior staff to take part in design development, consultant coordination, and project documentation across all phases – from schematic design through construction administration. The right candidate brings a balance of technical rigor and design sensibility, paired with strong organizational skills, clear communication, and a proactive approach to problem-solving. This is a role with real responsibility and a clear path toward greater project ownership over time.
What You’ll Do
Fogarty Finger has never stopped growing — and neither will you. Since our founding, we've expanded steadily across New York, Atlanta, and Boston, taking on a remarkable breadth of project types along the way. Joining our Boston studio means genuine exposure to the full arc of design, from early concept through construction administration, across residential, commercial, workplace, and hospitality work. You won't be pigeon-holed into a single phase or project type — you'll be in the room for all of it.
Our downtown Boston studio is home to a talented, diverse team that brings real energy and creative generosity to the work every day. We offer a competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package — but more than that, we offer a place where your contributions are seen, your growth is supported, and the work is worth doing.
