The Role: Senior Architect
As a Senior Architect, you are a senior member of the Design Engineering team responsible for architectural leadership across Switch's data center portfolio. You lead design development, oversee consultant performance, and ensure alignment with Switch standards and mission-critical requirements.
You are accountable for resilient, efficient, and scalable architectural solutions that support exascale data center development. This role balances technical depth, standards governance, and cross-functional collaboration.
This is a remote role with domestic travel expected to be less than 25%.

- Drive development and evolution of architectural standards, design processes, and equipment qualification criteria.
- Identify and implement design improvements that enhance cost, speed-to-market, and quality.
- Collaborate with internal engineering teams, construction, utilities, vendors, AHJs, and external consultants.
- Review and issue RFPs for architectural consultants and design partners.
- Participate in construction support activities including design clarification and field coordination.
- Lead technical presentations and contribute to written technical documentation.
- Identify and mitigate architectural risks throughout project lifecycle.
What We're Looking For
- You exercise strong technical judgment in complex infrastructure environments.
- You maintain high standards for documentation and code compliance.
- You proactively identify risks and resolve issues before escalation.
- You communicate clearly with technical and executive stakeholders.
- You balance innovation with constructability and schedule discipline.
- You collaborate effectively across disciplines including MEP, construction, and utilities.
What You'll Bring
Required
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Architecture.
- 8+ years of experience designing large-scale commercial or mission-critical facilities.
- Strong knowledge of architectural systems, building codes, and site planning.
- Proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit, Bluebeam, and Microsoft Office.
- Experience managing external design consultants across all project phases.
- Experience issuing and reviewing RFPs and consultant deliverables.
- Experience coordinating with AHJs, utilities, and cross-disciplinary engineering teams.
Preferred
- NCARB certification or equivalent.
- Experience in data center or mission-critical infrastructure development.
- Familiarity with sustainability frameworks such as LEED, BREEAM, or CASBEE.
- Experience delivering technical presentations and authoring technical documentation.
If you meet most of these qualifications, we encourage you to apply.
