It is a key part of selecting and executing the right work, supporting our field teams, serving our customers well, and building a stronger business. We are looking for someone who enjoys the pace of construction, understands the importance of accuracy, and wants to grow with a company that invests in its people.

The Designer/Engineer will also help support coordination between construction, inspection, and service opportunities as we continue to grow our customer relationships.
Responsibilities
  • Work with the design team to complete layout and design of fire sprinkler systems, including hydraulic calculations.
  • Prepare accurate and detailed drawings for field installation.
  • Ensure designs comply with NFPA standards, local codes, project specifications, and AHJ requirements.

  • Support disciplined project execution by helping identify design challenges early and providing practical solutions.
  • Prepare design submittals and assist with responses to review comments.
  • Assist with material lists, procurement coordination, and project documentation.
  • Support field crews during installation to help keep work moving efficiently and accurately.
  • Contribute to a high level of customer service through timely communication, quality design work, and strong follow-through.
  • Collaborate with construction, service, and inspection teams when project information creates future customer support opportunities.
Qualifications
  • CAD experience required.
  • Experience with HydraCAD, AutoSPRINK, or similar fire sprinkler design software preferred.
  • Experience using Bluebeam Revu or Adobe Acrobat Pro to mark up and package PDFs preferred.
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing accurate work.
