    • Mentor others in the accurate execution of sprinkler design using experience, proficiency, and product knowledge.
    • Assist sales with design estimates as needed.

    How You Will Do It

    • Apply NFPA standards with care and consistency so the design reflects the building type, hazard classification, and project requirements.
    • Stay close to the work by coordinating regularly with contracting teams, field crews, and sales to keep designs aligned with installation needs.
    • Verify accuracy in the field and resolve design issues early to reduce rework and support smooth installation.
    • Share knowledge and improve every day by mentoring others, solving problems with practical judgment, and supporting better project outcomes.

    Qualifications

    • High School diploma or equivalent.
    • 1-5 years of fire sprinkler design experience.
    • Working experience with AutoCAD, HydraCAD, Sprinkler Design Software, or equivalent sprinkler design software.

    Nice to Have
