Architectural Positions
Fellowships
2-3 years | RECENT GRADUATES AND LICENSED OR NEARLY-LICENSED ARCHITECTS
Fellowships are designed for soon-to-be or recently licensed architects. Fellowships are also the entry point for those interested in a long-term staff position. We recommend fellows participate in Summer Studio as part of their onboarding experience.
More Information
Architectural Fellowships provide opportunities for architects and professionals in related fields to partner in the mission of 100 Fold Studio while discerning their vocational direction. Ideal candidates have worked in the industry for 2-5 years, have an established church community, and have participated in previous faith-based, nonprofit or extended volunteer work. Teachability, teamwork, and the ability to persevere through challenges are essential qualifications.
At 100 Fold Studio, our training is based on the concept of career discipleship. Technical skills, practical wisdom, and spiritual values are imparted through the guidance of the long-term staff, hands-on project opportunities and daily interactions within the larger Studio. Fellows will focus on developing their professional, personal, and team-building skills to effectively serve other nonprofits and faith organizations through design. Our goal is to provide an international, on-site experience.
Fellows at 100 Fold Studio are committed to raising funds for the organization. 100 Fold Studio provides you with resources to develop a network of donors who have a clear understanding of the mission, vision, and values of 100 Fold. Salaries are based on experience.
100 Fold Studio also has fellowship opportunities for young professionals including: a Creative Media Coordinator, Videographer, Office Administrator, and Nonprofit Associate.
Internships
6-12 months | recent graduates
Internships are designed for students and emerging professionals seeking an academic co-op, entry-level or gap-year positions. 100 Fold Studio provides two opportunities: Vision+Call Internships (no citizenship requirement, work on local and global projects) and International Internships (for non-U.S. interns, must have a visa that allows for 6-12 months of work or volunteer service).
Vision + Call
The Vision+Call internship is hosted in partnership with the M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust. The Trust is a philanthropic foundation based in Vancouver, Washington that funds nonprofit projects and programs that enrich life in communities across the Pacific Northwest. The Trust’s Vision + Call Internship Program is an initiative in leadership development that helps faith-based organizations develop faith-based internship programs for young adults, typically traditional-aged college students and recent graduates. Their vision is to help give interns the opportunity to consider their vocational direction while gaining meaningful work experience in a nonprofit setting.
Through the Vision + Call Program, 100 Fold Studio has three year-long internship opportunities for an Architectural Intern, a Creative Media Intern, and a Director’s Assistant Intern. This position is intended to be for a gap-year college student or graduate or a recent graduate evaluating vocational direction. The Vision + Call Program also offers a summer position for a Videography Intern (June-August).

“If I could dream up the most ideal scenario for my first job out of college, this would be it. I got here and jumped right in to sketching out designs for the Readiness Center, and a year later was helping oversee construction. I got to be deeply involved in every phase of the project and learned so much through the process.“
