Who are we?
Thank you for asking! Kindness and curiosity are some of Atelier Ten’s core tenets.
We are a team of environmental designers championing for a healthier planet leveraging our vast, collective knowledge of sustainable spaces. We help bring beauty and efficiency to every building, because like Maybelline, not all buildings
are “born with it.”
We work with architects, engineers, owners, and other stakeholders to accomplish their sustainability, wellness, functionality, and visual goals. We don’t just follow the trends of the industry, we trailblaze new paths to create high performance, sustainable, and award-winning buildings.
What is this role on a high level?
Let’s take a moment to see the overview of the role before we get into the nitty gritty.
We want you to be Atelier Ten San Francisco’s newest Summer Intern, focused on Benchmarking. In this role you will have an introduction to working within a project team to optimize design options for relevant benchmarking systems.
You’ll work on LEED, ILFI, SITES, Fitwel and/or WELL program administration, which includes analyzing feasibility of specific credits as well as supporting the overall documentation process during design and construction. You will help
teams to identify opportunities and make recommendations on daylighting, energy systems, water use, thermal comfort, occupant health, sustainable materials, and more.

Assist with project deliverables such as reports, memos, and technical reports.

•Collaborate with design and contractor teams to support all aspects of sustainability certifications.
Work on multiple types of projects within the built environment ranging from institutional to commercial to residential building projects as well as large scale
master plans.
