Landscape Architect Designer
WHY WORK AT K&W? BECAUSE WE DON’T DO BORING – EVER.
If you see a blank site and instantly start sketching ideas in your head—welcome home!
WORK WITH BIG PICTURE THINKERS AND DETAIL OBSESSIVES (IN A GOOD WAY).
Our team is a mix of engineers, landscape architects, and planners who believe grading plans should be practical, beautiful, and maybe even frame-worthy. We take our work seriously—but not ourselves. Expect design debates, sketching sessions, and the occasional throwdown over the best shade tree. (Spoiler: there’s no wrong answer, but we’ll argue anyway.)
HYBRID FLEXIBILITY, BUT YOU WON’T WANT TO MISS THE OFFICE.
Sure, you can work from home. But our HQ is a 1920s mansion with riverfront views, and our team’s really fun to be around—so odds are you’ll want to show up.
WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING:
- Designing sites that truly work—from grading and layouts to stormwater and circulation.
- Turning ideas into visuals—graphics, SketchUp, and presentations that get clients excited.
- Growing your career—learning the ropes of project management so you can run the show someday.
- You’ll design places you can drive your family past and say “I designed that” like school campuses, hospitals, athletic facilities, amusement parks and government buildings.
- Problem-solving on the fly—because no site ever sticks to the plan.
- Collaborating with engineers and planners to make great designs even better.
WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU:
- 5+ years of experience designing land development projects
- Graphic skills (SketchUp, Adobe Creative Suite, etc.)—a plus, but not a dealbreaker.
- Experienced in AutoCAD and Civil3D? Bonus points.
- Licensure? Not required. Talent? Definitely required.
- A team-first mindset—because the best projects come from great collaboration.
THE WORK SETUP:
- Hybrid: In-office at least 2 days a week (Tues-Thurs recommended), with the rest remote.
- Schedule: Monday–Thursday, 9-hour shifts. Fridays? We’re out by NOON!
- Office vibe: Professional but fun. The coffee’s strong, the snacks are solid, and there’s usually a dog or two hanging out
BENEFITS:
- 401(k) matching
- Medical, dental, vision, life, and short/long-term disability insurance
- Paid time off
- Paid holidays
- Year-end performance bonus
- Flexible schedule
