Job Description

Intermediate Designer

FORGE Architecture + Design

We’re looking for an Intermediate Designer to join our collaborative, design-forward studio in San Francisco. This is a growth opportunity for a thoughtful and technically strong designer eager to contribute across project phases—from concept to construction.

You’ll work closely with senior staff, bring fresh ideas to the table, and develop your skillset through meaningful design, strong mentorship, and exposure to diverse project types.

What You’ll Do

  • Collaborate with design teams on early concepts and visioning
  • Develop space plans, design presentations, and production drawings
  • Assist with material and finish selections, furniture and lighting specs
  • Translate redlines into detailed, accurate documents
  • Stay proactive on deadlines, time allocation, and team communication
  • Contribute to high-quality deliverables—technical and visual
  • Participate in office initiatives and support marketing materials or RFPs as needed

What You Bring

  • 3–7 years of interior design or architecture experience (commercial sector preferred)
  • Proficiency in Revit, AutoCAD, SketchUp, Adobe Creative Suite, and MS Office
  • Strong spatial thinking and detailing skills
  • A curious mindset and eagerness to learn from others
  • Basic understanding of codes, space planning principles, and permit process
  • Strong graphic communication and visualization skills
  • A collaborative, proactive attitude—comfortable giving and receiving feedback
  • Bachelor's degree in Interior Design, Interior Architecture, or Architecture

    • What Success Looks Like

  • Clear, complete drawing sets that require minimal rework
  • Creative and executable design ideas rooted in research
  • High-quality digital presentations
  • Projects delivered on time, within hours allocated
  • Positive contributions to team culture and future project selection

    • Why FORGE

    We’re a strategy-forward architecture and interiors firm designing spaces that connect, inspire, and perform. Our culture values curiosity, kindness, initiative, and design integrity. We believe great work starts with a team that’s supported, challenged, and empowered.

    We offer :

  • Competitive compensation
  • 85% employer-paid medical + $5,000 HRA
  • Generous PTO and hybrid flexibility
  • Career path visibility through our FORGEU development tracks
  • A team you’ll actually enjoy working with
