Key Components:

• Preexposure to programming and lighting systems including Madrix, ESA, ELM, and Pharos.
• Ability to interpret architectural plans and understanding of industry terminology.
• Interpret and process electrical load analysis based on drawings, material specs, and measurable voltage.
• Create BOMs and estimates based on architectural drawings, schematics, submittal documentations and/or requirements.
• Ability to use various programs for producing supporting documents such as visuals and wiring diagrams (AutoCAD, CorelDraw, Adobe Creative Suite).
• Strong knowledgebase of DMX and addressable pixel mapping as well as 0-10V, DALI, and various lighting control systems.

Key Responsibilities:

• Work on commercial scale projects through all phases of construction: schematic design, design development, construction documents, and pre/post construction support.
• Work with engineering and sales support staff to develop concepts and strategies for lighting projects and applications.
• Giving structure to ideas - concept ideas, diagrams and renderings, spreadsheets, reports and analyses for discussion.
• Collaborate across design disciplines with client-side (outside) teams including architects, LDs, electrical engineers / master electricians, and other consultants or contractors.
• Produce visual materials to represent lighting designs (wiring diagrams and/or physical mock samples).
• Creating and/or specifying BOMs based on project designs including luminaires, power components, wiring, and control systems.
• Attend meetings and identify creative requirements to better interpret project needs.

Skills and qualifications:

• Excellent oral, written, and graphic design communication skills.
• Understanding of LED linear lighting and controls (for use in design and pre/post installation phases).
• Understanding UL & UL Class 2 requirements and other relevant energy codes and requirements (IECC, Title 24, ETL, etc.).
• Proficiency in reading electrical blueprints and electrical schematic drawings.
• Core interest in the lighting design industry with an emphasis on architectural lighting and lighting concepts (such as circadian rhythm).
• Understanding of lighting fundamentals including photometric quantities, calculation techniques, and light source types.
• Understanding of the design and documentation process such as design reports, design and construction drawings, and luminaire schedules or specifications.
• Conversational and visualization ability to explain spatial design, design characteristics and qualities.
• Excellent sales and customer service acumen (direct and indirect).
• Strong written/spoken English (Spanish is a PLUS).
• A Bachelor's degree in engineering, architecture, or business is desired but not a requirement to fill this position.

Ideal Working Partner:

• Strong work ethic, positive attitude, and ability to design collaboratively as part of a large creative team.
• Proactive and forward thinking.
• Analytical problem-solving skills.
• Self-motivated, self-managing, patient with yourself and others.
• Must be receptive to receiving direction and can perform well within a team environment.
• Able to make solution-driven decisions in a fast-paced work environment.
• Adaptable to changing needs and possess the ability to take on new tasks.
