We provide an environment where associates gain experience, train and mentor with the best, and build a successful career! We currently have an opening for a Designer on our Fire Protection team. We are open to hiring for remote work in any location within the US. If you prefer to be out of an office and away from a desk most of the week, this might be the perfect job for you - and we only have one of these openings available currently! You will travel frequently to client sites - typically multiple days per week - local and/or overnight, via car and/or plane, to complete site surveys independently or with others on our Fire Protection and/or Field Services teams.

You will also work on design-related tasks to help our team take design and construction projects from a defined concept to completion. WD associates work collaboratively across integrated, cross-disciplinary teams of designers, architects, and engineers. In this role, you will get to work remote, travel the US, and grow your experience in fire protection systems and fire protection design!
