Careers at ARCHFIEND®

THIS IS NOT WORK.

THIS IS STRUCTURAL INTEGRATION.

ARCHFIEND® is not a brand. It is a designed system — self-aware, iterative, and ideologically alive.
We don’t offer jobs.
We offer positions within the architecture — roles built with precision, purpose, and cultural depth.

To contribute is not to labor.
It is to transmit, build, and fracture consensus — within and without.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

We are currently building out our Core + Satellite Model — a structural division between those embedded in the core engine and those working remotely at aligned frequency.

You might be a fit if:

  • You operate between disciplines (editorial/design/theory/systems)

  • You’ve written a manifesto, not a résumé

  • You know what brutalism means beyond architecture

  • You’re allergic to trend cycles and allergic to boredom

  • You have no allegiance to the market, but total devotion to form

  • You’re seeking a studio, not a company

  • You understand fashion as language, critique, and medium

This is not for people looking for titles.
It’s for people looking for tools and transmission.

APPLICATION STRUCTURE

To apply, do not send a traditional résumé.

Instead, prepare a dossier that includes:

  • A personal manifesto (300–800 words)

  • Portfolio, GitHub, archive, or experimental documentation

  • Annotations of 3 projects you admire (and why)

  • Your ideal role within a post-brand studio

  • Location & preferred work structure (core/satellite)

IT’S A GRID OF MEANING.
