Kinetic Design + Development is looking for a Architectural Project Manager to join the Krew.

If you’re a project manager who thrives in both the creative and technical sides of the process, this role is for you.

This is a leadership role built for someone who can guide complex, design-forward architectural projects from first concept through final delivery. You’ll lead multiple projects on our Flex team, serve as a trusted client partner, and keep teams aligned, energized, and moving forward.

You’ll balance big-picture vision with day-to-day execution, mentoring talented team members, coordinating consultants, managing budgets and schedules, and ensuring every project meets Kinetic’s high standards for design, quality, and client experience. If you love leading people, solving problems, and turning ambitious ideas into built reality, you’ll fit right in.

Who You Are

You’re a confident leader who brings courage, authenticity, adaptability, and heart to your work. You know how to rally a team, earn client trust, and keep momentum strong across multiple moving projects.

You combine sharp design instincts with practical execution. You communicate clearly, make sound decisions, and know when to coach, delegate, or step in. You value collaboration, respect diverse perspectives, and create an environment where people do their best work.

You’re energized by ownership and accountability. You care about quality, timelines, budgets, and outcomes, and you know great projects happen when strong relationships and strong systems work together.
