Job Description
Architectural Designer managing school construction and design at Primer, transforming empty spaces into innovative learning environments for K–8 students.
Responsibilities:
- Site feasibility and pre-construction
- Before Primer signs a lease, you've already run the numbers. You'll lead code analysis and zoning review, coordinate traffic and parking studies, run test fits and space programming, and make the go/no-go call on new sites. You'll also build the diligence playbook, so the next site evaluation takes days, not weeks.
- Permitting and project management
- You'll manage permitting across jurisdictions: building permits, fire life safety, ADA, zoning variances, change of use. You'll run the civil engineers, FLS specialists, and local architects of record on each project, and you'll know the code officials and inspectors in each city well enough that they pick up when you call. You'll juggle several projects at different stages without dropping a deadline.
- FF&E and product specification
- You'll research and spec the furniture, equipment, and branded materials that go into every Primer campus. You'll build a vendor list and product catalog other teams can order from. And you'll find the value engineering wins that save money without cutting corners on the student experience.
Requirements:
- 5+ years in architectural project management, interior design, or something close, with real ownership from design through construction
- Experience building design standards or prototypes for multi-location rollout (a big plus)
- Background in schools, retail, or hospitality, anywhere physical space matters to the people using it
- Deep knowledge of building codes, ADA, fire life safety, zoning, and permitting across multiple jurisdictions
- Fluency in AutoCAD, Revit, or equivalent, plus comfort with project management tools
- You'll be producing the standards and playbooks other people build from
- The ability to run multiple projects and vendors at once without losing a thread
Benefits:
- Primer is a mission-first company. We believe our mission is the highest-leverage way we can create positive change.
