Part-Time Interior Designer / Project Designer - architect / engineer / cad - job employment

Part-Time Interior Designer / Project Designer - architect / engineer / cad - job employment Camia Brown Interiors | Brooklyn, NY | Hybrid / Mostly Remote Approximately 20 hours per week | Potential for Growth Camia Brown Interiors is a Brooklyn-based, full-service interior design studio creating thoughtful, expressive, and highly personal residential, hospitality, commercial, and community-focused spaces. We are growing and looking for a talented Part-Time Interior Designer / Project Designer to work closely with our Founder and Principal across several active and upcoming projects. This is not an entry-level assistant position. We are looking for someone who already understands the interior design process, is confident in their abilities, and can take a design direction and independently help move it forward. You should be equally comfortable sourcing a beautiful light fixture, developing a floor plan, thinking through a custom millwork detail, preparing a client presentation, reviewing a vendor quote, or visiting a showroom to evaluate a product in person. Our work is layered, colorful, thoughtful, and rooted in how people actually experience spaces. If your natural design instinct is exclusively white, gray, and beige, we are probably not the right studio for you. We love color, texture, materiality, custom details, culture, and spaces with personality. What You’ll Do You will support projects from concept through implementation, including: Develop design concepts and translate creative direction into cohesive presentations. Source furniture, lighting, plumbing, tile, stone, finishes, accessories, and other FF&E. Create and develop floor plans, furniture plans, elevations, and design details. Assist with custom millwork and cabinetry development. Research products, pricing, availability, lead times, and alternates. Prepare client presentations and specification materials in Canva and other platforms. Visit NYC showrooms, vendors, fabricators, and project sites as needed. Conduct sit tests and evaluate furniture, materials, finishes, and samples in person. Communicate with vendors and obtain quotes, samples, specifications, and product information. Assist with procurement, order tracking, expediting, and installation coordination. Maintain project schedules, specifications, selections, and design documentation. Coordinate with contractors, millworkers, architects, consultants, and other project partners as needed. Help troubleshoot design and field conditions as projects move through construction. Participate in client meetings and site visits when appropriate. Support multiple residential and commercial projects simultaneously. Who We’re Looking For You are a designer who can jump in and figure things out. You don’t need every task broken into ten steps before you can begin. You’re comfortable asking thoughtful questions when clarification is needed, but you also bring solutions, ideas, and initiative to the table. You are: Experienced in residential and/or commercial interior design. Strong in space planning and furniture layouts. Comfortable developing elevations and design details. Knowledgeable about furniture, lighting, materials, finishes, and vendors. Able to source across different budgets without sacrificing the integrity of the design. Comfortable thinking through custom cabinetry and millwork. Highly organized and able to manage multiple priorities. Detail-oriented and proactive about following through. Comfortable communicating with clients, vendors, contractors, and trades. Collaborative, personable, curious, and confident. Excited by color, pattern, texture, and expressive design. Able to receive creative direction while also contributing your own ideas and perspective. Comfortable working independently in a primarily remote environment. Technical Skills Required: AutoCAD Google Workspace Microsoft Office Strong sourcing and specification skills Ability to read and develop interior design drawings Strong Plus: Revit 3D modeling and rendering Experience with commercial or hospitality projects Strong familiarity with NYC-area showrooms, vendors, and trade resources Experience We are less concerned with a specific number of years than we are with your ability to demonstrate that you can independently contribute to active design projects. An intermediate designer with approximately 3–7+ years of professional interior design experience will likely be the strongest fit, but we are open to someone outside that range with an exceptional portfolio and the right experience. A degree in Interior Design, Interior Architecture, Architecture, or a related field is preferred. Location & Schedule This is a part-time position averaging approximately 20 hours per week, with hours potentially increasing or decreasing depending on project workload. The position is primarily remote, but you must be local to New York City and available for in-person project needs, including site visits, showroom appointments, sourcing trips, installations, and vendor meetings. Brooklyn-based candidates are especially encouraged to apply. Some flexibility in scheduling is important. There is potential for this position to grow into a larger or full-time role as the firm and project pipeline continue to expand. Compensation Hourly, commensurate with experience and capabilities. #J-18808-Ljbffr Adver.info
