Landscape Architect (Part Time, California)

About this job

Are you a Landscape Architect with solid production chops, a sharp eye for detail, and the kind of self-sufficient work style that thrives in a small, principal-led firm? If part-time flexibility across a diverse range of project types sounds like your ideal setup, we’ve got the right opportunity for you. We are looking for a Landscape Architect to work part-time with one of our clients — PL Designs, a California-based landscape architecture practice led by founder and principal Patrick Luhn. Apply now!

BetterPros unlocks human potential by offering competitive compensation, flexibility, constant learning and growth, and the opportunity to work anywhere you want with one of our +130 active clients across the United States.

What you will do

  • Support the development of Landscape Architecture projects from Design Development (DD) through Construction Documentation (CD) phases.
  • Prepare, update, and coordinate technical drawings, production deliverables, and project documentation.
  • Develop construction document sets and assist with drafting and production work across residential, commercial, HOA, public works, and sustainability-focused projects.
  • Incorporate design changes and coordinate revisions throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Produce quick renders and high-quality renderings as needed to support design communication.
  • Collaborate closely with the Principal Landscape Architect to ensure project objectives and quality standards are met.

What you'll need to know

  • A degree in Landscape Architecture or a related field.
  • Strong drafting and production experience, with a focus on DD and CD phases.
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD, SketchUp, and Land F/X.
  • Ability to work independently and manage multiple projects simultaneously.
  • Strong attention to detail and reliable, proactive communication habits.
  • Good English communication skills.

A great plus

  • Experience with Adobe Creative Suite.
  • Background across a mix of project types: high-end residential, commercial developments, HOA communities, public works, water conservation/turf reduction, or mixed-use projects.
  • Comfort receiving direct feedback and working closely with a firm principal.
  • Experience working with US-based landscape architecture firms.
