  • Licensed PE in Fire Protection (must be reciprocable to Nevada)
  • Engineering degree in fire protection, mechanical, structural, civil, electrical, or a related discipline
  • At least 6 years of experience in fire and building code consulting
  • Experience with high-rise, mixed-use, or healthcare projects is valued
  • Smoke control and pressurization system design experience is a plus
  • Sprinkler design experience is a plus
  • Fire alarm design experience is a plus but lower priority
  • Must be willing to travel to the office once a month

The Package

  • Up to $250,000 base salary
