Architectural Technologist

Architectural Technologist - Intermediate or Senior

Downsview - Toronto, Ontario

Full-Time | On-Site (Project Phase), then later a Hybrid work model after 12 months

Public Sector Projects

THE COMPANY

This is a rare chance to be part of a highly secure, high-profile Federal Government project at the design and technical delivery stage. This firm are well established and have some excellent projects in the pipeline for 2026.

THE ROLE

You’ll be embedded with an integrated project team working out of a purpose-built, on-site project office that brings together designers, consultants, contractors, and the client under one roof. For approximately 12 months, this role will be fully on-site to support the intensive design and documentation phase of the project. Once this phase is complete, the position will transition onto other public-sector projects with a flexible hybrid work model.

If you’re an experienced Architectural Technologist / Designer who thrives in technically complex environments, enjoys collaborative problem-solving, and wants exposure to confidential public-sector work that few professionals ever get access to — this is it.

As part of the architectural team, you’ll translate design intent into clear, buildable solutions and play a key role in delivering a technically robust set of construction documents.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Developing and refining detailed architectural drawings and technical packages that meet quality, schedule, and budget targets - using Revit

• Contributing to all phases of design, from early programming through detailed documentation

• Conducting code analysis, systems research, and material investigations

• Coordinating layouts, details, and assemblies with engineering disciplines

• Reviewing shop drawings, consultant submissions, and technical deliverables

• Supporting permit submissions and responding to authority comments

• Working closely with contractors and consultants to resolve constructability and coordination issues

• Participating in site reviews and addressing technical challenges as they arise

WHAT'S REQUIRED

• 7 – 15 years of professional experience on architectural projects

• Experience working with public-sector or institutional projects (government/federal or institutional, community, cultural, civic, etc.) preferred. But will consider other large or complex project experience

• Advanced proficiency in Revit (this role is hands-on and production-focused)

• Solid understanding of building codes, construction methods, and building systems in Canada

• Experience coordinating with multiple disciplines and stakeholders

• Post-secondary education in Architecture or a related field

• Registration (or eligibility) with a professional architectural association is an asset

• Reliability clearance preferred or ability to obtain it (mandatory - this requires a background check dating back 10 years in Canada - if this too difficult to obtain due to partial experience/history being in overseas countries where capacity to obtain is limited, then it won't move forward).

WHAT YOU GET IN RETURN

• Opportunity to work on high profile, top security project
• Work onsite for 1 year and then transition to a fully flexible hybrid/remote model
• Gain exposure to unique and complex projects
• Supportive and collaborative environment
• Opportunities for advancement
