We're looking for a Fire Protection Designer who's ready to take on more complex projects and more ownership. You're hungry to grow into bigger scope, deeper client relationships, and eventually a leadership path if that's the direction you want to take.

Get out to job sites to scope projects from the ground up
Solve design problems as they come up, because they always do
Lead coordination meetings, sometimes solo
Mentor our Fire Protection Designer I team members when they've got questions
Be a go to resource for our Sprinkler Fitters in the field

Our Culture

We believe in being humble, hungry, and smart, not as a poster on the wall, but as how we actually work. Humble enough to ask questions and take feedback. Hungry enough to push for the next challenge. Smart enough to read a room and know how to work well with people.

Customer Focused
Excellence

Forward Thinking
Giving Back
Work Hard, Play Hard
