Architectural Designer

Location: Remote, India

Type: Full-time (Contract)

Company: Sanctuary (https://sanctuary.co/)

About us

We're a real estate development company on a mission to create residential and commercial spaces that blend design, nature, and human connection.

Currently, we are building a residential community in the Austin area - crafted for those who value wellness, sustainability, and intentional living. At the same time, we are acquiring land to expand into commercial and hospitality projects.

This next phase will bring to life a bold mix of experiences:

• Short-term rentals in unique structures like cabanas, yurts, and treehouses

• Multi-purpose event spaces for music, wellness gatherings, and creative workshops

• Spring waterway for lounging, swimming, and community with potential integrated bathhouse

• Comfort and rest stations with hammocks, hanging beds, and immersive gardens

• And many more 'impossible' amenities like desert caves, geothermal springs, and sensory landscapes

Our vision is to create places where people don't just visit - they experience, they connect, and they feel something different.

Why this role matters:

As a Junior Architectural Designer at Sanctuary, you will do more than draft drawings - you will help shape how spaces feel. From treehouses and wellness bathhouses to immersive gardens, you will contribute both creatively and technically, ensuring bold ideas become buildable realities.

It's a rare opportunity to gain international project exposure, sharpen your Revit skills, and grow as a designer while working remotely from India.

What you have:

• 1–3 years of experience in architecture and/or design
• Proficiency in Revit (must-have)
• Familiarity with other design and visualization tools (e.g., AutoCAD, SketchUp, Figma, Adobe Suite)
• A portfolio that demonstrates:
  • Strong aesthetics and use of calming palettes/materials
  • Ability to clearly communicate concepts and experiential ideas
  • Evidence of translating design concepts into buildable drawings or models
• Curiosity, adaptability, and eagerness to learn in a fast-paced, remote environment
• Passion for wellness, sustainability, and community-focused spaces

Why join us?

• Creative freedom: You'll shape the design vision from the ground up - nothing cookie-cutter here
• Mission-driven work: Build spaces that inspire wellness, sustainability, and community
• Remote-first: Work from anywhere - flexible hours, global collaboration
• Results over hours: We care about what you deliver, not how many hours you log
• Collaborative, entrepreneurial team: You'll be part of a small, dynamic team that values bold ideas and fast action
• Rare opportunity: Design a destination that combines residential, hospitality, wellness, and commercial spaces - there's nothing else like it

If you're someone who loves blending creativity with architecture, thrives on turning concepts into buildable designs, and wants to shape unique living experiences - we'd love to hear from you.

Join us in creating spaces where people truly belong.
