You will apply your deep understanding of fire engineering principles, leverage advanced technologies and simulation capabilities, and interpret current and historic building codes to make sound judgments and deliver innovative yet practical fire strategies.
Specific areas of inquiry in this practice include rapid assessment and implementation of actionable, cost-effective solutions to address challenging new designs, existing building conditions, and sudden failures (including facade fires). Projects may include investigation, troubleshooting and repair design for existing buildings, design, detailing, peer review, and specialty consulting for new construction.
Responsibilities will extend beyond technical execution and management of project work, including opportunities for fostering new and existing client relationships, building and mentoring a team to meet the demands of your growing practice, contributing to in-house research and development initiatives, and establishing an industry presence through participation in professional organizations and committees.
