Boston, Massachusetts, Saltsman Brenzel is an established design-build firm specializing in residential design and construction, with an excellent reputation for quality, accountability, and professionalism. The firm is growing and seeks an architect with 8–10 years of experience in residential design. Our Boston studio brings together an interdisciplinary team of woodworkers, contractors, architects, and interior designers who develop every aspect of a project — from inception through construction and fabrication. What sets this role apart from most architectural positions is the opportunity to stay involved through construction management on our own projects — carrying a design through to its completion on site.   We see this as a reinvention of the master builder for the present era: an architect who designs, builds, and stands behind the work from first sketch to handoff. Applicants should demonstrate a genuine focus and passion for the craft of design and construction, and bring strong proficiency in ArchiCAD (or a clear, demonstrated ability to ramp up quickly). This is an opportunity to deepen the seamless relationship between design and construction through close collaboration with our architects, craftsmen, and clients. To apply, submit a cover letter, resume, relevant project-specific experience, and a condensed portfolio (2–3 projects) in PDF format to steve@saltsmanbrenzel.com.
