You can't join defence force as an architect. However, you may join MES.
The Military Engineer Services (MES), which was raised in 1923, is one of the pillars of Corps of Engineers of the Indian Army which provides rear line engineering support to the Armed Forces. It is one of largest construction and maintenance agencies in India. It has a large number of units and sub units spread across the entire country to provide engineering support to various formations of Army, Air Force, Navy, Ordinance Factories, KV Sangathan, Border Road Organisation and DRDO. MES is a military organisation but has both Army and Civilian component of officers and other subordinate staff. While execution of all construction works is through contracts, execution of all maintenance services are both through contracts as well as departmentally employed labour (DEL).
The role of MES is dual i.e. to render both engineering advice and also to execute the works .The Military Engineering Services are responsible for the design, construction and maintenance of all works, buildings, airfields, dock installations, etc. along with necessary services such as military roads, bulk water and electricity supply, drainage, refrigeration and furniture, required by the Army, Navy and Air Force in India. The MES functions under the overall control of the Engineer-in-Chief, who is the adviser to the Ministry of Defence and the three Services on operational and peace time construction engineering. Engineer-in-Chief of MES is assisted by six Command Chief Engineers which further oversee 31 Zonal Chief Engineers and each zone is further divided into CWE's and independent GEs.
MES is structured to design works which are executed through contracts under the supervision of officers and staff consisting of both civilians and combatants from the Corps of Engineers.
