Cuningham is looking for a Project Architect or Senior Project Architect to join our healthcare team in California or Phoenix, Arizona. Healthcare experience is required, and HCAI (formerly OSHPD) experience is strongly preferred. You'll lead the design process and the technical side of healthcare projects through every phase, from early design through construction, making sure the documents are complete, coordinated, and ready for the toughest review in the state. We'll bring you in as a Project Architect or Senior Project Architect based on your experience and the scale of work you've led.
We're open to candidates across California, especially those near our Culver City and San Diego offices, as well as our Phoenix office. If you don't live near one of our offices, remote work is an option.
At Cuningham, everything comes back to one idea: design a better world with deep respect for the real one people live in. In healthcare, that means spaces that support healing and work hard for the people who care for others.
