Job description

ATG LED Lighting is a leading manufacturer of high-performance, energy-efficient LED luminaires and lamps for commercial, industrial, and infrastructure applications. Since 2001, ATG has pioneered LED retrofit technology — including the first Type C LED T8 tubes — and today offers a full line of indoor and outdoor products, from architectural area and flood luminaires to troffers and high-bays. With six U.S. distribution centers and industry-leading 10-year warranties on many products, ATG is one of the most trusted suppliers for both renovation and new construction projects.

The Role

We are seeking a Lighting Designer with strong AGI32 skills to support our sales team, rep agencies, and distributor partners with photometric layouts and application engineering. You will turn project requirements into accurate, code-compliant lighting designs that help win projects — from warehouse high-bay retrofits to parking lot, area, and flood layouts. This is a hybrid role combining in-office collaboration with remote flexibility.

What You’ll Do
  • Produce photometric layouts and point-by-point calculations in AGI32 for indoor and outdoor commercial/industrial projects
  • Recommend optimal fixture selection, quantities, mounting heights, and spacing from ATG’s product line to meet target light levels and budgets
  • Ensure designs comply with IES recommendations and applicable energy codes (e.g., footcandle targets, uniformity, BUG ratings, Title 24/ASHRAE 90.1)
  • Support sales, rep agencies, and distributors with fast-turnaround layouts, revisions, and design documentation for bids and submittals
  • Prepare professional deliverables: layout drawings, calculation summaries, fixture schedules, and energy-savings comparisons for retrofit proposals
  • Interpret architectural drawings, CAD files, and site plans; work in AutoCAD as needed for backgrounds and exports
  • Maintain and organize ATG photometric files (IES files) and coordinate with product management on new product data
  • Assist with DLC listings and utility rebate documentation where photometric data is required
  • Train sales team members and rep partners on lighting design basics and design request best practices
What You’ll Bring
  • 2+ years of lighting design or application engineering experience, preferably with an LED lighting manufacturer, rep agency, or engineering firm
  • Proficiency in AGI32 is required; experience with Visual, DIALux, or ElumTools a plus
  • Working knowledge of AutoCAD and ability to work from architectural/site drawings
  • Solid understanding of photometrics: footcandles, uniformity, distribution types, BUG ratings, and IES files
  • Familiarity with IES standards and energy codes (ASHRAE 90.1, IECC, Title 24) preferred
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple design requests with quick turnarounds
  • Clear communicator, comfortable supporting salespeople and customers
  • Bachelor’s degree in architectural engineering, electrical engineering, or related field preferred; LC (Lighting Certified) credential a plus
  • Salary $65,000–$90,000, commensurate with experience
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Paid time off and holidays
  • Ongoing product and software training

ATG LED Lighting is an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, or veteran status.
