Coming back to architecture after my first startup, I started noticing something:
Finding a job in this field still feels like a maze.
That observation turned into a question. Then a project.
That’s how workin.archi started.
The problem
As a junior architect, job hunting often feels broken:
- Scattered platforms,
- Inconsistent offers,
- No real info about the studios,
- And barely any feedback after applying.
On the firm’s side, it’s just as painful: slow hiring, lots of noise, high costs, and very little context about applicants.
The idea
Build a platform that brings together job listings, studio profiles, and smart candidate tools—but with a clear focus on the architecture field.
Not just another job board. Something deeper:
- Enriched agency pages (philosophy, projects, team),
- Search filters that actually make sense,
- Tools to write and track applications in one place,
- And more.
Where I’m at
The beta version is live.
I’ve already talked to dozens of architects and studio heads—and the signal is clear: this space needs a fresh take.
The hardest part?
Building something useful without oversimplifying the messy, creative, human world that is architecture.
But that’s exactly the challenge that excites me.
