Full Job Description

Architectural Assistant (Growth Path to Designer)

H&H Builders
Denver, CO | Full-Time

H&H Builders is an award winning, high-end, design build, construction firm focused on delivering thoughtful, well-executed residential remodels across the Denver market.

We are hiring an Architectural Assistant to immediately support our design and preconstruction pipeline. Who can grow into a key contributor on our design team.

This role is critical. You will help eliminate bottlenecks in permit and construction documentation, support our lead designer during an upcoming maternity leave, and play a central role in how projects move from concept to construction.

If you thrive in technical drawing, precision, and production-and want a clear path into higher-level design responsibility-this is a strong long-term opportunity.

What You'll Do

Translate concept designs (1-2 sheets) into complete permit and construction drawing sets (10-15+ pages)
Prepare accurate, code-conscious architectural plans for City of Denver submittals
Coordinate structural sheets with engineering partners
Execute detailed, high-accuracy construction plans (low creativity, high precision)
Collaborate closely with:
- Design Lead (creative direction & oversight)
- Preconstruction Team (redlines, site plans, as-builts)
- Leadership (design intent, constructability, budget alignment)

Growth & Advancement

Take ownership of larger portions of the design and production workflow
Develop toward handling full project drawing packages independently
Expand into design contribution and client-facing work (based on capability)
Potential to participate in sales/design-build conversations (optional, performance-based)

What Success Looks Like

Permit sets are completed accurately, efficiently, and with minimal revisions
Projects move through preconstruction faster and with fewer bottlenecks
The design team operates with greater capacity and less dependency on one individual
You grow into a trusted, go-to resource for production drawings and design support

What You Bring

Experience

3-5+ years in architectural drafting, design, or production
Strong background in residential construction (custom homes or remodeling preferred)
Experience producing full permit/construction drawing sets
Ability to think in terms of the entire home-not just isolated spaces

Technical Skills

Proficiency in Vectorworks (preferred) or strong experience in AutoCAD or similar architectural CAD software
Ability to quickly learn new software platforms (Vectorworks ramp-up expected within ~2 weeks)
Strong understanding of construction documentation and detailing standards

Core Competencies

High attention to detail and accuracy
Strong spatial and systems thinking (how the whole house comes together)
Ability to interpret redlines and execute efficiently
Coachable, adaptable, and growth-oriented
Clear communicator and team collaborator

Education (Preferred, Not Required)

Degree or coursework in:
- Architecture
- Architectural Engineering
- Civil Engineering (structural emphasis)
Equivalent hands-on residential design experience is equally valued

Compensation & Growth

Base Salary: $60,000 - $80,000
Performance Growth Path: Clear trajectory into the Architectural Designer role
Optional Sales (Future Opportunity):
- Commission structure tied to project revenue (e.g., ~5% of contract value at target margins)
- Potential to earn $50K-$100K+ in additional income based on performance

Why Join H&H Builders

Be part of a tight-knit, high-performing team with strong design standards
Step into a role with immediate impact and long-term growth
Gain exposure to both design and construction execution
Work directly with leadership and influence how projects are delivered
Opportunity to grow into a hybrid design + production (and potentially sales) role

Who This Role Is Perfect For

A strong architectural drafter/designer who enjoys the technical side of building
Someone who wants to move beyond "just drafting" into ownership and growth
A professional who values clarity, structure, and execution-but also wants a path forward

If you're looking for a role where your work directly impacts project success-and where you can grow into something bigger-we'd love to connect.

Apply today and help us build better, smarter, and more efficiently.
