Job Description

Industry & Company

Alphatec, an award-winning architecture & engineering firm in DC, is seeking a Proposal Expert with A/E/C Government RFP experience . This role requires strong Adobe InDesign skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple proposal submissions under tight deadlines.

Not a fit if: you’re a general graphic designer, social media marketer, or freelancer with no A/E/C government proposal experience.

If you’ve coordinated proposals for Local and Federal Government agencies and thrive in fast-paced pursuits — we want to meet you.

What You’ll Do

  • Coordinate and produce compelling, compliant proposals for federal and local government A/E pursuits.
  • Ensure strict compliance with RFP/RFQ requirements, formatting, and submission guidelines.
  • Review RFP and submit RFI to clarify proposal submission requirements and refine our response.
  • Collaborate with technical staff (architects, engineers, and PMs) to gather, organize, and tailor project data, resumes, and narratives.
  • Design and produce layouts, graphics, and charts using Adobe InDesign and Microsoft Office to create visually compelling proposals.
  • Ensure quality control (proofreading, formatting, compliance with requirements).
  • Maintain and update marketing collateral: templates, resumes, graphics, and project data base.
  • Support marketing efforts including presentations, award submissions, and client collateral.

What We’re Looking For

  • 3+ years of A/E/C proposal experience (government RFPs required).
  • Proven experience producing government RFP submissions in SF330 format.
  • Ability to produce detailed relevancy matrices based on RFP evaluation criteria.
  • Proficiency in Adobe InDesign and Microsoft Office (required).
  • Strong graphic/layout skills (Photoshop/Illustrator a plus).
  • Strong writing, editing, and compliance review skills.
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple deadlines under pressure.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Communications, English, Marketing, or related field (Architecture/Engineering background a plus).

What We’re Not Looking For

  • General Graphic Designers with no proposal or A/E/C experience.
  • Marketing or Social Media Specialists whose work hasn’t involved government RFPs/RFQs.
  • Freelancers only — we need someone committed to joining our in-house team.
  • Candidates without Adobe InDesign proficiency (this is non-negotiable).
  • Applicants with no experience in AEC firms (Architecture, Engineering, or Construction) or proposal production.

Why Join Alphatec

  • Work on high-profile, impactful projects across DC and beyond.
  • Collaborative, creative, and supportive team culture.
  • Competitive compensation with room for growth.
