Lead Architectural Designer

Vessel Technologies
New York, NY Full Time
POSTED ON 1/24/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 4/21/2025

At Vessel Technologies, we're not just designing buildings—we're reinventing the way people live. In 2024, we reimagined the apartment building as a high-performance, prefabricated product that's beautiful, healthy, sustainable, and affordable. Now, we're building a design-driven platform to tackle one of humanity's greatest challenges : housing that meets the needs of the 21st century. We are backed by leading venture capitalists, such as Mosaic Ventures, and by the nation's preeminent homebuilder, Lennar, Inc.

We're seeking an Architectural Designer who's ready to think bigger—someone who sees architecture not just as a practice, but as a tool for transformation. This is an opportunity to push boundaries, experiment boldly, and work at the intersection of design, technology, and manufacturing to redefine what's possible.

What You'll Do

  • Create architectural systems that work across multiple sites and adapt to diverse environments—without sacrificing beauty or performance
  • Rapidly prototype ideas, building physical and digital models to test new concepts and refine designs
  • Partner with engineers, fabricators, and manufacturers to ensure your designs can be efficiently built and assembled
  • Tackle challenges at the intersection of housing, sustainability, and urbanization with designs that break down barriers and inspire progress
  • Rethink how architecture can be created, delivered, and experienced—leveraging materials and processes from industries like automotive, aerospace, and consumer electronics to lead the next wave of innovation

Who You Are

  • 7-10 years of architectural design experience
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Architecture
  • Proficiency in Revit, Rhino, and Adobe Creative Suite
  • Strong 3D modeling, rendering, and visualization skills
  • Experience working across conceptual and technical phases of design
  • Familiarity with prefabrication, modular systems, or industrial design principles is a plus
  • A passion for applying design and technology to solve real-world challenges
  • Ability to think in terms of patterns, frameworks, and repeatable solutions—not just one-off designs
  • Comfortable moving fast, learning as you go, and pushing ideas forward even in the face of ambiguity
  • Desire to make a difference—and you're excited to apply your skills to a mission that matters
  • Vessel offers comprehensive benefits.

    At Vessel, you'll be part of something bigger than a company—you'll be part of a movement. If you're looking for a role that's both challenging and rewarding, with the opportunity to work alongside a visionary leader in a transformative industry, we'd love to hear from you.
