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.
