Architect Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a architect in Texas?
To practice architecture in Texas you must hold a license issued by the Texas Board of Architectural Examiners, known as TBAE. The path begins with a professional degree from a National Architectural Accrediting Board-accredited program, followed by the Architectural Experience Program to log required hours, and then passage of the Architect Registration Examination. Once you pass all sections, TBAE reviews your application and issues a Texas license before you can use the title architect or offer services independently.
How much do architects make in Texas?
Architects in Texas earn a median of about $94,490 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $60,730 for the lowest 10% to over $142,130 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire architects in Texas?
Employers hiring architects in Texas right now include Amazon Web Services, NTT DATA, and Caterpillar, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Texas's sustained construction pipeline in healthcare, corporate campus, and mixed-use development keeps a wide range of national firms and regional studios actively posting roles across multiple studio locations in the state.
Which Texas cities have the most architect jobs?
Dallas, Austin, and Houston consistently have the most architect openings in Texas. Houston's energy, medical center, and port-related commercial development drive demand there, Dallas supports a large corporate headquarters and urban redevelopment market, and Austin's rapid population growth has produced sustained demand for residential, civic, and tech campus projects that keeps its architecture sector highly active.
Are there remote architect jobs in Texas?
Yes, but they're rare. Architecture is fundamentally a hands-on, site-engaged profession, and most roles require in-office collaboration through design and construction administration phases. About 69% of architect openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, and those positions tend to be concentrated in programming, early schematic design, or project management coordination rather than full-cycle roles.
How can I get hired as a architect in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is an architectural intern or designer position at a mid-size or large Texas firm while you complete your Architectural Experience Program hours toward TBAE licensure. Firms like Gensler's Houston and Dallas studios, HDR, and PageSoutherlandPage regularly hire recent graduates from Texas-based NAAB-accredited programs at UT Austin, Texas A&M, and UT Arlington. A strong portfolio of studio work, Revit proficiency, and an actively logged AXP record are the credentials that give entry-level candidates a clear edge in Texas hiring.
Where can I find and apply to architect jobs in Texas?
You can find and apply to architect jobs in Texas on Migrate Mate, which lists current Texas openings updated regularly. Search the listings for roles that match your experience level, specialization, and preferred city, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
