Job Description

Do you thrive in a creative, collaborative environment where ideas flow freely and innovation is encouraged? Are you looking to join a firm that takes real action toward advancing Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion?

We’re seeking Architects at all stages of their careers—from developing practitioners to experienced leaders—to join our team in a variety of markets, including education, healthcare, and civic.

At Lionakis, our Architects believe in the power of design to shape a better future for our clients, partners, and communities. They embrace every aspect of architecture, from concept and planning through technical execution and client service, and see collaboration as essential to creating meaningful work. They move fluidly between creative exploration and technical problem-solving, bringing clarity, curiosity, and confidence to both. Motivated and ambitious, they strive to grow as leaders while making a lasting impact within our studio and the places we help shape. Above all, they find joy in the design process and in helping clients achieve their goals through thoughtful, well-crafted solutions.

We believe great architecture seamlessly blends creativity with precision. Whether you are refining design concepts, developing construction documents, or guiding a project through completion, your work will help create enduring, purposeful spaces that enrich the civic, cultural, educational, and healthcare communities we serve.

As an Architect at Lionakis, you will…

• Engage in design discussions and critiques, contributing ideas that elevate innovation and design quality.
• Participate in all project phases, from concept through construction, bringing both creative and technical expertise to the work.
• Translate design ideas into buildable, high-quality solutions that reflect thoughtful, purposeful architecture.
• Contribute to the preparation of presentations and materials for clients and marketing efforts.
• Develop and coordinate architectural drawings, specifications, and consultant collaboration to support project design and delivery.
• Provide and/or receive technical guidance and mentorship, depending on your level of experience.
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure design intent is realized and project goals are achieved.
• Support or lead project planning efforts, including budgets, schedules, and quality control reviews.
• Coordinate with clients, consultants, and contractors to foster successful relationships and project outcomes.
• Participate in construction administration, ensuring design integrity through project completion

You'll Bring...

• A bachelor's degree in architecture (or equivalent).
• 3–10+ years of relevant architectural project experience.
• California Architect License.
• Proficiency in BIM/Revit, Bluebeam, and Microsoft Office Suite.
• Experience with SketchUp, Rhino, or other 3D modeling tools (a plus).
• A genuine interest in both design and technical excellence – you see architecture as the art of bridging creativity and constructability.
• Strong collaboration, communication, and problem-solving skills.

Why You’ll Love Lionakis…
At Lionakis, people and design come first. You’ll find:

• A collaborative, design-forward culture that values creativity, mentorship, and shared success.
• The chance to shape stories that impact real communities.
• Hybrid work flexibility, every-other-Friday off options, and a comprehensive benefits package (bonus plan, 401(k) with match, health/dental/vision, generous PTO).
• A workplace deeply committed to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion – in our projects, our people, and our culture.

Join us and help bring our design vision to life—one story at a time.

Compensation and Benefits

Salary Range: $83,600–$154,000 annually.
We offer a robust bonus plan, flexible hours (including hybrid work options), and an alternative work schedule that allows for every other Friday off.

This range reflects the base salary we reasonably expect to pay for this role in Sacramento, California. Actual compensation will depend on several factors, including your location, experience, education, and qualifications. Candidates outside of California may be offered compensation within or outside of this range based on the regional cost of labor and market data.

Studies have shown that underrepresented individuals like women; LGBTQIA+; and BIPOC, among others, are less likely to apply for jobs unless they believe they meet every single one of the qualifications in a job description or posting. Because we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive organization, we understand the best candidate may come from a non-traditional background to our field of work. We strongly encourage you to apply, even if you don't believe you meet every one of the qualifications described above. Diversity makes us better.
