Architectural Designer

McCree is seeking an Architectural Designer with 1–5 years of experience to join our growing Design Department.

This is a great opportunity for an early-career designer who wants more than a traditional production role. At McCree, you will work as part of a fully integrated design-build team, collaborating with architects, engineers, estimators, project managers, and construction professionals from concept through construction.

Our work includes projects in healthcare, education, hospitality, multifamily, public service, religious/nonprofit, professional, industrial, and other exciting markets.

Why McCree?

The AEC industry is changing rapidly. New technologies, evolving project delivery methods, and increasingly complex projects are changing the role of architects and designers.

At McCree, we believe the architects of the future will need to understand more than how to produce drawings. They will need to understand the entire project lifecycle—from planning and site development through design, engineering, permitting, estimating, construction, and project delivery.

Our integrated design-build environment gives emerging designers the opportunity to develop that broader perspective while working directly with architects, engineers, estimators, project managers, and construction professionals.

As technology continues to reshape the profession, including AI, advanced visualization, digital fabrication, and other emerging tools, our goal is to develop designers who can combine strong technical skills with a deeper understanding of how projects are planned, designed, coordinated, priced, and built.

For someone early in their career, McCree offers the opportunity to grow into a more versatile and well-rounded architect prepared for the future of the AEC industry.
