Here at DIALOG, we are passionate about design and believe it can and should meaningfully improve the wellbeing of our communities and the environment we all share.
 
We are a multi-disciplinary practice of architects, interior designers, urban designers and planners, structural, mechanical and electrical engineers, landscape architects and sustainability experts who design for community wellbeing and urban vibrancy. We are a fun-loving bunch of big thinkers and city-shapers, who are collaborative in our approach, diverse in our perspectives, aspirational in our pursuits, and optimistic about what’s next. We’re always looking for passionate people who share our values and care as much about our communities as we do. We're proud to be a Certified B Corporation and one of Canada's Greenest Employers, committed to using our design practice as a force for good in the world.

DIALOG is looking for an experienced architect or designer in mid-rise and high-density living environments to help expand our mixed-use living design team. We believe that these mixed-use developments require empathetic and future thinking designers to collaboratively envision human-focused environments that will help our communities thrive. You will be part of a team of creative, passionate and collaborative designers who believe we can truly make a difference. 

How you'll make a difference:

    • Set and champion the design vision for complex human-centric, sustainable mixed-use residential communities from concept through realization 

    • Translate client, stakeholder, and community aspirations into innovative architectural responses rooted in sustainability, human experience, and performance 

    • Lead the exploration and resolution of complex design and technical challenges, ensuring clarity of design intent throughout delivery 

    • Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams to integrate architecture, landscape architecture, structure, and building systems into cohesive solutions 

    • Lead approval processes with authorities having jurisdiction, acting as the applicant and principal communicator advocating for client teams 

    • Partner with DIALOG leadership to support design focused client relationships and represent design intent with authorities having jurisdiction 

    • Mentor, inspire, and grow teams while advancing design quality, emerging methodologies, and inclusive studio culture 

Who you are:

    • 10-15 years of experience leading mixed-use living, including largescale work (>$100M construction value) 

    • Professional degree in Architecture required; master’s degree and registration (or eligibility) preferred 

    • Proven design leader capable of directing multidisciplinary teams through conceptual, technical, and sustainability-driven decisions 

    • Strong understanding of Revit and BIM platforms with the ability to provide strategic oversight of design workflows 

    • Strong understanding of the design process and the development of design strategies and narratives with proficiency in Adobe Design Suite and Rhino to provide design direction 

    • Experience supporting project pursuits (RFQs, RFPs, fee proposals) 

    • Clear, confident communicator who can articulate design ideas and technical concepts to diverse audiences 

    • LEED AP or similar sustainability credentials considered an asset 

Don’t meet every single requirement? We still encourage you to apply! We’re looking for future DIALOGers who are eager to learn, bring unique perspectives, and want to make a real difference in the world—even if your experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification.

What you need to know about the Calgary Tech Scene

Employees can spend up to one-third of their life at work, so choosing the right company is crucial, not just for the job itself but for the company culture as well. While startups often offer dynamic culture and growth opportunities, large corporations provide benefits like career development and networking, especially appealing to recent graduates. Fortunately, Calgary stands out as a hub for both, recognized as one of Startup Genome's Top 100 Emerging Ecosystems, while also playing host to a number of multinational enterprises. In Calgary, job seekers can find a wide range of opportunities.
