Job Description

RIOS is an international design collective. We are actively in pursuit of wonder within the design of the built environment. We believe design is an act of optimism through which invention and ideas change the world. We practice interconnected design across architecture, placemaking, and landscape architecture to define design as a continuum. We follow a process that begins with attunement, where program and context shape strong conceptual thinking to establish a holistically informed big idea through which we develop form, confirm function, and define experience as the basis on which to explore ecology, material, and tectonic expression. We are known for our bold solutions that are inclusive of the wider context and are ever mindful that an interdisciplinary approach to design brings about inclusive, resilient, and original solutions that ensure diversity and resilience. We are seeking a Senior Project Designer to join our EXD team, leading the execution of multiple projects from concept through completion through design leadership, strong communication, and both independent and collaborative engagement. Our EXD team specializes in signage, wayfinding, and environmental/experiential graphics. Interested applicants should demonstrate a refined design aesthetic and the ability to mentor and guide project teams effectively.
