Design Architect

About the role

This job opportunity is available at any location in the United States. Ideally, selected candidates will be near a Jacobs U.S.-based office, but we intend to hire the "best" candidates. As a Design Architect, you’ll join our team providing clients with award-winning planning, engineering, architectural design, construction management, and design-build project delivery.
