What New York Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in architect jobs across New York.
- Active New York State architect license issued by the New York State Education Department
- Professional degree in architecture from a NAAB-accredited program required
- Proficiency in Revit, AutoCAD, and BIM workflows expected across most firms
- Demonstrated experience with New York City Building Code and zoning regulations
- Strong portfolio showing completed projects from schematic design through construction administration
- LEED accreditation or sustainability credentials preferred for commercial and institutional roles
Architect Jobs in New York: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become an architect in New York?
To become a licensed architect in New York, you must earn a professional degree from a NAAB-accredited program, complete the Architectural Experience Program through NCARB, and pass all divisions of the Architect Registration Examination. Licensure is issued by the New York State Education Department's Office of the Professions. New York does not require a separate state exam beyond the ARE, but the state registration application must be submitted to the Office of the Professions directly.
How much do architects make in New York?
Architects in New York earn a median of about $99,280 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $63,920 for the lowest 10% to over $165,660 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire architects in New York?
Employers hiring architects in New York right now include Highline, Amazon Web Services, and Capgemini, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. New York's market draws a mix of global design firms, mid-size practices focused on residential and commercial work, and public agencies such as the New York City Department of Design and Construction and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
Which New York cities have the most architect jobs?
New York, Albany, and Brooklyn lead New York for architect openings. New York City dominates because of its continuous cycle of commercial, cultural, and residential development, while Albany draws demand from state government projects and institutional clients, and Buffalo has seen renewed activity tied to redevelopment and infrastructure investment in western New York.
Are there remote architect jobs in New York?
Yes, but they're uncommon. Architecture is a heavily site- and collaboration-dependent field, so fully remote roles are the exception rather than the norm. About 66% of architect openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, and those roles tend to involve schematic design, BIM coordination, or project management tasks that can be handled off-site during certain project phases.
How can I get hired as an architect in New York with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is an architectural intern or junior designer position at a mid-size New York firm while completing your Architectural Experience Program hours. Large public employers such as the New York City Department of Design and Construction and the School Construction Authority run structured programs that bring on emerging professionals. A strong portfolio from studio work or academic competitions carries significant weight, and pursuing your New York State registration as early as eligibility allows gives you a clear edge over candidates who delay licensure.
Where can I find and apply to architect jobs in New York?
You can find and apply to architect jobs in New York on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings across New York City, Albany, Buffalo, and the wider state. Search the listings for roles that match your experience level and specialty, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
