Job Description

David Charlez Designs

Licensed Architect

Full-time · In-office · South Twin Cities (I-35 corridor) Lakeville, MN

Salary: Competitive, based on experience

At David Charlez Designs, we’ve spent over 20 years focused on one thing: designing exceptional custom homes for clients who expect the highest level of detail, creativity, and execution.

We’re a boutique studio where experience meets fresh perspective — and where every project is personal. We’re looking for a licensed architect who wants to play a meaningful role in that work, not just occupy a seat.

About the Role

This is a full-time, in-office position based in our Lakeville studio. As Architect of Record, you’ll serve as the licensed professional responsible for reviewing and stamping construction documents — but at DCD, your role goes far beyond that.

You’ll work directly with our principal and design team on high-end custom homes, collaborating with top-tier builders and discerning clients across Minnesota and beyond. In our boutique environment, you’ll be involved at every stage — from early concept through final documentation and client interaction.

This is a role for someone who values ownership, craftsmanship, and being deeply involved in the work.

What You’ll Do

  • Serve as Architect of Record, reviewing and stamping construction documents
  • Collaborate closely with our design and drafting team from concept through CDs
  • Work directly with clients and builders, communicating with clarity and professionalism
  • Navigate permitting and code requirements (local and out-of-state projects)
  • Take ownership of projects — proactively solving problems and driving progress

What We’re Looking For

  • Licensed Architect in the State of Minnesota ( required )
  • Experience in high-end custom residential design
  • Strong initiative and self-direction — you don’t wait to be told what’s next
  • Collaborative mindset — you thrive in a tight-knit, team-oriented environment
  • Comfortable wearing multiple hats in a boutique studio setting
  • Based in the Twin Cities and available for full-time, in-office work

Why David Charlez Designs

We’re a Grand ARDA-winning firm designing homes people dream about. Every project is created in-house — never outsourced — and every detail matters.

This is not a large corporate firm. You won’t get lost in layers of management or siloed roles. Your work will be visible. Your input will matter. And the projects you contribute to will be ones you’re proud to put your name on.

How to Apply

Send your resume, a brief introduction, and a portfolio of relevant residential work to:

***email_hidden***

We’d love to see the homes you’ve helped bring to life.
