Lighting/Rigging Engineer

The Lighting/Rigging Engineer at Illuminated Integration is an individual who is detail-driven and thrives on making complex systems work seamlessly in the real world.

Responsibilities:

• Review and validate system designs to ensure technical accuracy and real-world functionality.
• Identify potential design issues and recommend product substitutions or configuration improvements.
• Oversee and maintain all technical documentation—schematics, wiring diagrams, rack elevations, and network layouts.
• Collaborate with designers, project managers, and field teams to ensure clarity from concept to completion.
• Provide engineering support during installation and commissioning to troubleshoot and fine-tune systems.
• Ensure documentation is accurate, consistent, and field-ready to support smooth installation and integration.

Qualifications:

• 3+ years of experience in lighting/rigging system engineering, documentation, or commissioning.
• Strong technical understanding of lighting and rigging systems.
• Comprehensive knowledge in lighting/rigging system design and integration.
• Familiarity with AutoCAD, Revit, or Vectorworks software for the creation of lighting/rigging system drawings.
• Proven ability to manage multiple projects concurrently and meet deadlines.
• Certifications such as ETCP or LC (Lighting Certified) would be an added advantage.
• A sharp eye for detail, excellent organizational skills, and the ability to collaborate across teams.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.

Benefits:

• Competitive compensation package, including a benefits plan.
• 50% employer-paid health, dental, and vision insurance
• 15 days of paid time off (starting)
• 9 paid holidays
• 401(k) eligibility after 6 months of employment with a company match
• Career growth opportunities
• Opportunities for career advancement through ongoing training and professional development.
• Collaborative and inclusive company culture.

The Lighting/Rigging Engineer role is best suited for a candidate who thrives in a fast-paced, technologically driven environment and who is eager to make a significant contribution in an industry-leading organization.
