Senior Architect — Archicad

Upstart AEC is seeking a Senior Architect with advanced Archicad expertise and strong construction documentation experience

to support a highly complex, active architectural project in Miami.

 

You will join an existing architecture team to help complete a construction drawing package that is already approximately 80–90% developed. This is a fast-moving assignment where the successful candidate must be able to enter an established Archicad model, understand complex building conditions, and contribute productively with minimal ramp-up.

 

The project is a nearly 300,000-square-foot mixed-use development

incorporating restaurant, retail, Class A office, and high-end residential spaces. Its architecture includes stone cladding, significant wind-load considerations, and highly customized conditions across floors and structural elements.

 

This role is best suited for an experienced architect who combines strong technical building knowledge with expert Archicad/BIM capabilities

and is comfortable solving complex construction-documentation problems independently.

 

Key Responsibilities

 

• Work within an existing Archicad BIM model

  to help complete construction documentation.

• Develop and refine detailed construction drawings for a complex mixed-use building.

• Review existing documentation and quickly identify areas requiring further development or resolution.

• Resolve unique architectural and construction conditions across different floors and building elements.

• Coordinate work within an established project team and contribute to a shared BIM environment.

• Apply practical knowledge of how building systems, assemblies, materials, and details come together in construction.

• Maintain a high standard of documentation while working against an accelerated project schedule.

• Communicate clearly in English with architects and other internal team members regarding design and technical issues.

• Work independently on assigned portions of the project with minimal supervision or training.

Required Skills

 

• Expert-level Archicad experience

  , including strong knowledge of BIM workflows and how to structure and maintain an effective Archicad model.

• Significant professional experience producing construction documents / construction drawings

  .

• Experience working on complex architectural projects

  , rather than primarily repetitive or standardized buildings.

• Strong understanding of building construction, detailing, assemblies, and constructability

  .

• Ability to interpret existing design intent and independently develop technical solutions.

• Experience producing comprehensive drawing sets, rather than working exclusively on isolated drawing packages or individual details.

• Strong architectural design judgment combined with technical documentation skills.

• Ability to join an active project and contribute immediately with minimal ramp-up or training

  .

• Strong working English, particularly the ability to discuss architectural design and technical issues clearly with an international team.

• Senior-level architectural experience appropriate for independently resolving complex documentation challenges.
