Are you a collaborative designer with a mission to bring a client's aesthetic and vision to life? Do you have that beautiful balance of being a creative powerhouse while also managing the details and timelines of complex projects? Is it time to work with a true design-build firm, where you will see your designs come to life in clients’ homes? Do you dream about working for a company that has a blast while delivering a highly professional, quality experience to its clients?

If so, we really want to talk to you!! However, if you are a designer who has a very strong personal brand aesthetic or who struggles with managing timelines and details, this is not the role for you.

About Us

We are a small design build company in downtown Boulder, specializing in large-scale residential remodels and additions all over Boulder and the surrounding area. So that we can maintain a close relationship with our clients throughout the entire process, we only accept around 15 remodeling projects a year. Our core team has been with us for years, and we hope any new addition to our team has a similar long term career mentality.

At Sobo Homes we believe the key to being a top company is to have top talent that’s happy to be with us. We strive to create a wonderful working environment. The culture we promote is professional, positive, casual, honest, and fun.

Our expectation is that we work 40 hours a week. We want our people to have a balanced, rich life outside of work. We believe this leads to top performance in the workplace. When you work for Sobo, it’s a career, not just a job. We want to help you get where you’re trying to go in life.
