About DyeLot

We design hospitality interiors where architecture and experience meet — hotel conversions, brand-standard repositioning, and ground-up interiors for owners, developers, and capital partners. Our work treats hospitality as the humanity in the built environment: a sense of arrival, material warmth, and operational clarity that makes a property work for guests and for the people who run it.

We take design judgment seriously, and we respect that the people doing the work have full lives outside it.

The Role

We're looking for a Project Manager to run interior projects with architectural rigor. This is a technically grounded role for someone who can carry a project from concept through construction administration: managing drawing sets, coordinating consultants, holding schedule and budget, and keeping design intent intact from the first sketch to the last punch-list item. You'll be the operational center of your projects — the person owners and contractors call when they need an answer.

The work is interior-focused but architectural in nature. You should be as comfortable redlining a partition detail or reviewing an FF&E submittal as you are reading a construction schedule or running an OAC meeting.

What You'll Do

• Manage interior architecture and FF&E projects from programming through construction administration, owning schedule, scope, and quality at each phase.

• Produce and coordinate construction documentation — plans, elevations, details, finish and FF&E schedules — and maintain drawing-set integrity across revisions.

• Coordinate consultants (MEP, structural, lighting, AV, kitchen, etc.) and resolve conflicts before they reach the field.

• Run construction administration: submittals, RFIs, site observation, punch lists, and substantial completion.

• Track project budgets and staffing against fee, and flag potential overages early.

• Support PIP compliance and brand-standard work for branded conversions.

• Serve as a primary point of contact for owners, contractors, and brand reps, translating design intent into clear, buildable direction.

• Mentor junior staff and contribute to how the studio runs its projects.

What You Bring

• 7+ years managing interior or architectural projects, ideally in hospitality.

• Professional degree in architecture or interior architecture; licensure (or active pursuit) is a plus.

• Fluency in construction documentation and detailing, with real construction administration experience.

• Command of Revit and the standard production stack — the ability to set up and steward a model, not just work in one.

• The judgment to hold a schedule and budget without losing the design.

• Clear, direct communication with clients, consultants, and trades.

Nice to Have

• Hospitality brand-standard and PIP experience.

• Strong grasp of FF&E specification and procurement coordination.

• AIA membership; WELL, LEED, or NCIDQ credentials.

• Experience on conversions and repositioning, not only new build.

Why DyeLot

You'll own meaningful projects, work directly with senior leadership, and have real influence over how we build — both the projects and the studio. We care about the craft and about the people doing it. Good work and a full life are not in tension here.
