SWEET SPARKMAN is seeking exceptional architectural talent to join our award-winning team at our offices in Sarasota and St. Petersburg, Florida. As a leader in resilient, community-oriented design for over two decades, we're looking to find the right people who will help shape the future of our firm and our region's architectural landscape.
WHO WE ARE
Founded in 2002, Sweet Sparkman has grown into a powerhouse of creativity and expertise, shaping Sarasota's architectural landscape for over 20 years. Our team of 45 full-time professionals represents 15 nationalities and 10 languages, bringing diverse cultural insights to our design process. Under the leadership of principals Todd Sweet, Jerry Sparkman, John Bryant, Karl Bernhard, and Shane LaMay, we collaborate to create architecture that meaningfully serves our communities.
WHAT WE DO
We approach each project with fresh perspective and curiosity, crafting thoughtful, site-specific designs rooted in context rather than a signature style. What sets us apart is our impressive range of projects that enrich every facet of community life. From cultural venues and community spaces to public safety facilities and resilient homes— our work shapes daily life across Florida’s Gulf Coast with meaningful, enduring architecture.
HOW WE DO IT
At the heart of our approach is our collaborative spirit and unique blend of global perspective with local commitment. We view each project as an opportunity to bring together diverse perspectives, fostering an inclusive design process that considers every stakeholder's voice. Our technical expertise and innovative use of creative tools allow us to transform complex challenges into distinctive, functional solutions that enhance our region’s cultural and architectural heritage.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
We are looking for an experienced PROJECT ARCHITECT or PROJECT MANAGER with 10+ years of experience. Our ideal candidates bring depth of experience, technical proficiency, creative vision, and a collaborative spirit to their work.

WHAT WE OFFER
We offer competitive compensation based on your qualifications, expertise, and experience, with annual reviews that consider performance, economic factors, and cost of living. Your comprehensive benefits package includes health/dental/vision insurance, a 401K plan with profit sharing, and performance-based annual bonuses that recognize your contributions to our projects and firm. While this is an on site position in our Sarasota, FL / St. Petersburg, FL locations, our office allows for remote work days to balance team synergy, collaboration, mentorship, and individual productivity. Beyond the tangible benefits, you'll find a diverse, supportive team environment where your voice is valued and your work makes a meaningful impact on the communities we serve.
Sweet Sparkman is committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace. We encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds who connect with our mission of creating resilient, community-oriented architecture.
A NOTE ABOUT THIS ROLE: Architecture is dynamic, and so are our roles. Every project brings unique challenges, and every team member brings different strengths. While we've outlined key responsibilities and qualifications, we value adaptability and recognize that the perfect fit may come in unexpected forms. As our projects evolve, so too might your role—we embrace this flexibility as part of creating exceptional work together.
