Design great kitchens -- without chasing leads or managing construction.

NEPA Builders is a well-established residential builder delivering high-quality remodels and new homes across Northeast Pennsylvania. We're looking for an experienced freelance kitchen & cabinet designer to partner with us on a project basis.

This role is perfect for an independent designer who wants consistent, builder-backed work, creative autonomy, and clear handoffs -- without sales pressure or project management headaches.

You focus on design. We handle the rest.

• Collaborate with homeowners to refine layouts, cabinetry, and finishes
• Attend scheduled virtual and in-person design meetings with homeowners at our Blakely, PA showroom
• Design solutions that balance aesthetics, function, and budget
• Coordinate with our internal team to ensure designs are construction-ready
• Revise designs as needed based on site conditions or scope adjustments
• Deliver clean, professional design packages on agreed timelines
  
  

What We're Looking For

• 3 years of residential kitchen or cabinet design experience
• Strong proficiency in 2020 Design or ProKitchen
• Local or regional designer able to meet clients virtually and on-site in Blakely, PA
• Reliable availability for scheduled showroom appointments
• Solid understanding of cabinetry systems and residential construction
• Professional communication and responsiveness
• Ability to work independently and manage your own time
• Experience with MasterBrand cabinetry is helpful, not required
  
  

Compensation & Flexibility

• 1099 independent contractor
• Paid per project or hourly equivalent (competitive, based on scope)
• Flexible workload -- accept projects as availability allows
• Remote-friendly design work
• Clear scopes, organized projects, and consistent collaboration
  
  

Why Partner With NEPA Builders

• No selling, no lead generation, no collections
• Organized builder processes and realistic timelines
• Respect for your design judgment and workflow
• Designs that actually get built
• Opportunity for long-term, repeat collaboration
