What does a remote architect do?

A remote architect or architectural designer works as part of your studio: developing concept options, building the design through schematic design and design development, and producing coordinated construction documents. Your licensed architect of record keeps responsibility for stamping and code sign-off, while the remote architect carries the production and design workload.

Architect responsibilities

  • Develop concept options, massing studies and schematic design packages.
  • Carry projects through design development with plans, sections, elevations and details.
  • Produce construction documents to your title block and office standards.
  • Coordinate drawings with structural, MEP and civil consultants.
  • Prepare presentation drawings and 3D views for clients and planning submissions.

Types of architect we place

Project architects and architectural designers for residential, multifamily, commercial, hospitality and interiors work; technical architects focused on detailing and construction documents; and Revit architects who manage models, families and templates for your practice.

Frequently asked questions about hiring architects

How much does it cost to hire a remote architect?

A full-time remote architect through HireArchitects starts from $2,799 a month. Junior architects sit around $2,799–$2,999/mo, mid-level architects running projects from SD to CDs $3,099–$3,299/mo, and senior project architects $3,399–$3,500/mo. One monthly rate, with no placement fee.

Are your architects licensed in the US?

Most are licensed or degree-qualified architects in their home countries. They work under your licensed architect of record, who keeps responsibility for stamping drawings and code sign-off, just like an unlicensed designer in a US office.

What software do your architects use?

Revit and AutoCAD are standard, and most also work in SketchUp, Rhino or ArchiCAD, with Enscape or Lumion for visualisation. Tell us your stack and we only shortlist people who use it daily.

Do they understand US building codes?

Our architects have worked on US projects and understand IBC and IRC requirements, US construction methods and imperial units. Final code review stays with your architect of record.

Can I hire an architect for a single project?

Yes. Many firms hire an architect for a project surge and keep them on once the workflow is proven. There is no long-term contract, so you can scale hours or cancel any time.

Will they work my hours?

Yes. Latin American architects work within one to three hours of US time zones and usually keep full US business hours, so they join design reviews and client calls live.

How do you vet architects before I see them?

Every candidate is interviewed, checked for spoken and written English, and has their portfolio reviewed. Shortlisted architects complete a practical design or documentation exercise before they reach you.

How fast can one start?

You get a shortlist of three vetted architects within 24 hours of your call. Most clients interview the same week and have their architect working within 24 to 72 hours of choosing.

What if it isn’t working out?

Tell us and we will shortlist replacement candidates. There is no long-term commitment, so you can also cancel at any time.

Do I need to provide software licences?

Usually yes: most firms provide a Revit or AutoCAD seat and access to their file server or cloud so work stays in your systems. Some architects hold their own licences; we can confirm on the call.
