This opportunity provides:

  • Primarily office-based position with minimal site travel
  • Opportunity to move from field work into an engineering-focused career
  • Design, programming, and technical problem-solving not day-to-day service calls
  • Work with industry leading Building Automation technologies
  • Collaborative team of experienced engineers and project managers
  • Stable company offering long-term career growth and advancement
  • Competitive salary commensurate with experience
  • Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance
