Jayson Architecture is a creative, diverse, design focused, and award-winning firm located in San Francisco, with a wide range of projects throughout California.  Our projects include custom residences, commercial spaces, public buildings, and libraries, with a focus on creative and contemporary design. We are looking for someone that is excited by and engaged in design culture, with thoughtful opinions about architecture.  We have projects in multiple stages of the design process, so the ideal candidate will be able to engage at a conceptual design level down to the nuts and bolts.

We are a fully in person firm, and believe that architecture is a collaborative endeavor that is elevated by direct interaction with each other.  Some of the best design solutions arise when we are gathered around a table together, sketching and exploring ideas on a roll of trace paper. 

Our office is located in the Mission District of San Francisco in a light filled brick and timber space. We are close to both the 16th & 24th street BART stations, and surrounded by delicious lunch options.

We offer a competitive salary, paid vacation, holidays, and personal time, a 401k with a safe harbor match, as well as health insurance.
