Can you look at a set of architectural drawings, walk the actual job site, and instantly see where the two don't match? Are you as comfortable in MS Visio building an AV floor plan as you are in a hard hat talking through a fix with a field crew? If so, keep reading.

About the Role

The Senior Field Engineer is the critical link between our field crews and our engineering department. You make sure every project is designed, documented, and deployed correctly — by living at the intersection of the drawings and the reality on site. You'll be on job sites, in production meetings, and in the drawings, keeping projects on track and solving the problems that come up when a design meets a construction site.

What You'll Do

• Monitor and track projects by regularly visiting job sites and reviewing progress with the field crews
• Work hand-in-hand with builders, clients, sub-contractors, and other trades to keep projects successful through the construction phase
• Provide instruction and feedback to field crews on items and issues that need correction based on design changes
• Partner with sales and the Engineering Manager to find creative, unique solutions to problems that come up on site
• Attend weekly production meetings and give clear status updates on your assigned projects
• Create and review detailed technical drawings and elevations
• Produce AV floor plans and as-builts
• Follow and maintain project processes for all engineering tasks
• Complete assigned tasks from the engineering team and your co-workers

What You Bring

• Sharp attention to detail and strong organization
• Ability to read, understand, and interpret architectural floor plans, elevations, and technical drawings
• Clear communication of details, both verbally and in writing
• Proficiency with MS Visio, Outlook, Excel, and Word
• Ability to manage your time, multi-task, and follow through on your own initiative
• Ability to work independently with strong time- and resource-management
• Solid analytical skills — analyzing information, general math, research, and reporting results
• Comfort presenting and reporting to a team
• Punctual, professional, and team-oriented
• Able to lift up to 50 lbs.

Close, distance, color, peripheral, and depth vision (with the ability to adjust focus) are all required. You'll be exposed to job-site weather conditions; noise levels are usually minimal.
