At High Concrete, we don’t just pour concrete, we shape skylines and bring bold visions to life. With more than 75 years of experience and nearly five decades as a precast leader, we’ve become a trusted partner for architects, engineers, and builders nationwide.

Ready to build a career that’s as solid as our structures? Join High Concrete in Denver, PA, where your future is built to last.
We are actively searching for an Architectural Design Intern to join our team for the Summer of 2027!
The Architectural Design Intern will work alongside experienced designers and project teams to gain exposure to the complete precast concrete design process. Interns will participate in production, design, modeling, detailing, and field observation activities while learning how architectural and structural precast projects move from contract documents to fabrication and erection.
Core Projects Overview:
- Interns will participate in 2 primary projects over the course of program: (1) modeling a fictitious garage from scratch and producing erection drawings, and (2) producing piece tickets to be used on real projects running through production.
Daily Tasks:
- In addition to working on core projects, interns will participate in several training exercises including: High Concrete Academy, Reading and understanding contract documents, and Modeling in Tekla. Interns will also have sit down mentoring sessions with current Architectural Designers.
End Goal:
- By the end of the internship, participants will have a foundational understanding of how precast concrete projects are designed, detailed, manufactured, and erected. They will gain hands-on experience with industry software, develop practical modeling and detailing skills, and understand how design information supports downstream production and construction activities.

- Pursuing a Bachelor's or Associates Degree in Architecture or similar degree
- GPA of 3.0 or higher is preferred
- Candidate should be in or entering their Junior/ Senior year
- Strong communication skills, both written and oral
