Johnston Design Group is a boutique architecture firm in Greenville, South Carolina, and a leader in restorative design: buildings that enhance the well-being of their occupants, achieve economy through conservation, and honor the natural resources of every site. We design in different shades of green, practical, economically sound sustainability, not dogma.

The Role As Project Architect, you’ll lead the day-to-day architecture on several projects at once, guiding the design phases and producing clear, coordinated construction documents. You’ll work closely with fellow architects, our interior design studio, consultants, general contractors, and owners, keeping everyone informed and the design intent intact.

• Facilitate design-phase meetings, reviews, and owner presentations.
• Produce complete, coordinated, buildable construction documents.
• Coordinate structural, MEP, civil, and landscape consultants.
• Partner with general contractors and owners on pricing, constructability, and value analysis.
• Lead code and zoning research, design review submissions, and permitting.
• Support construction-phase RFIs, submittals, and site visits.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional experience in architecture.
• Urban mixed-use and multifamily experience, including construction documents.
• Strong knowledge of codes, accessibility, and Fair Housing requirements.
• Commitment to sustainable, restorative design with a practical, business-minded approach.
• Exceptional organization and collaboration skills.
• Proficiency in Revit.
• Availability Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Eastern.

Preferred Qualifications

• Licensed architect, or actively pursuing licensure.
• Master of Architecture.
