Senior Architect / Senior Designer

Responsibilities

• Contribute to the development of ICON’s concrete 3D-printed wall system to maximize human comfort, safety, experience, and sustainability
• Lead project teams in the development and coordination of comprehensive drawing packages across all design stages, ensuring adherence to ICON’s architectural standards, client requirements, and project timelines
• Produce drawings and diagrams to ensure that the design intent established during concept development is maintained through subsequent phases of design and construction
• Develop construction documents, wall assembly drawings, and building envelope details, with a focus on window and door systems, waterproofing, and weatherization
• Create construction diagrams to effectively communicate construction sequencing for successful integration of building envelope components and building systems (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) in the field
• Collaborate with architects, engineers, and building & material science departments to determine best practices for achieving effective weatherization, resilient design, and high thermal performance of the printed wall system
• Aid in the experimentation of innovative wall profiles and configurations for future application in projects
• Review consultant drawings and details to ensure a successful interface between the 3D-printed walls and any non-printed element of the building.
