DWI GROUP
FOUNDING ARCHITECTURAL LEAD
Calgary, Alberta (Remote/Hybrid)
Building Projects. Creating Legacy.
ABOUT DWI GROUP
DWI Group is an emerging architecture, engineering, construction, and capital platform focused on institutional, commercial, retail, and community-based projects across Canada.
Our vision is to create an integrated project delivery firm that combines architecture, engineering, construction, and development expertise under a single coordinated platform. We are currently building our founding team.
THE OPPORTUNITY
DWI is building an integrated architecture, engineering, construction, and capital platform. We are seeking an entrepreneurial Architectural Lead to anchor our design capability as we pursue our first projects.
Initially part-time and contract-based, focused on proposals, technical leadership, and concept development. The role grows with the company.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Lead proposal development and project pursuit support
- Prepare technical submissions and qualifications packages
- Provide architectural input during planning and concept development
- Participate in client meetings and project interviews
- Establish architectural standards and project processes
- Deliver as opportunities are secured
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Registered Architect or Intern Architect eligible for registration
- Experience in institutional, commercial, community, educational, or mixed-use projects
- Strong communication and proposal writing skills
- Entrepreneurial mindset — you want to build, not just bill
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
This is not a traditional consulting role.
You will be joining the founding team of a company at the ground floor — with the opportunity to influence its direction, culture, and long-term growth. We are building something that lasts.
POSITION TYPE
- Growth Potential to Full-Time Leadership Role
SOFTWARE & TECHNOLOGY REQUIREMENTS
As DWI Group is currently in its startup phase, candidates must have legal access to all software required to perform the duties of the role.
This includes, where applicable:
- Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC)
- Other discipline-specific software required for project delivery
Candidates may satisfy this requirement through personal licenses, existing employer-approved licenses where permitted, or software provided through their own consulting practice or company.
Compensation rates are expected to reflect the candidate's provision of their own software, hardware, and professional tools.
As DWI Group grows and transitions into larger project delivery roles, company-provided software and technology resources may be introduced.
COMPENSATION STRUCTURE
This position is initially structured as a flexible part-time contract role supporting proposal development, project pursuits, business development, and early-stage project execution.
Compensation will be based on an hourly or project-specific contract arrangement.
Candidates are expected to operate as independent professionals and maintain their own professional software, hardware, insurance (if applicable), and technical resources.
As DWI Group secures projects and expands its operations, successful candidates may be offered increased hours, long-term leadership opportunities, and potential participation in future growth initiatives.
