🔥 Senior Fire Protection Engineer (Seller-Doer | AI-Driven Consultancy)

📍 Location: Remote (U.S.-based | West Coast hours preferred)
🕒 Employment Type: Full-Time | Senior / Principal Level
💰 Compensation: ~$200,000 base + bonus potential
🏢 Industry: Fire Protection Engineering Consultancy (AI-Enabled)

About the Role

We’re working with a small, high-growth Fire Protection Engineering consultancy (4-person team) that is doing something genuinely different — leveraging in-house AI tools to transform how fire protection and code consulting work is delivered.

They’ve built proprietary technology that automates traditionally time-intensive tasks like chemical inventory analysis, code classification, and compliance review — turning work that used to take 40–60 hours into minutes.

Now, they’re looking to bring in a Senior Fire Protection Engineer (seller-doer) to help lead technical delivery, support client growth, and work alongside leadership to scale the business.

This is a rare opportunity to join a firm where engineering meets technology, and where your role will directly shape both the technical output and future direction of the company.

What You’ll Be Doing

Lead fire protection engineering and code consulting projects across complex facilities
Oversee and validate outputs from AI-assisted engineering workflows
Deliver fire and life safety strategies including fire master plans and fuel modification plans
Review and respond to plan check comments and code compliance requirements
Support projects involving hazardous materials, labs, and chemical inventories
Work directly with clients as a trusted advisor
Contribute to business development and client growth (seller-doer model)
Help shape how engineering and AI workflows integrate as the company scales

What Makes This Role Different

🚀 AI-first engineering approach — eliminate repetitive work and focus on high-value decision making
⏱ Tasks that used to take days now take minutes
📊 Proprietary tools handling large-scale data sets (60,000+ chemical inventories)
💡 Opportunity to influence how technology reshapes fire protection engineering
📈 Join early and grow with a company investing heavily in innovation

What We’re Looking For

8–15+ years of fire protection engineering experience
Strong background in code consulting and life safety design
Experience with complex occupancies (labs, industrial, hazardous materials a plus)
Comfortable operating as a seller-doer (client-facing + technical delivery)
PE license preferred
Open-minded and curious about technology and AI-enabled workflows
Self-sufficient, entrepreneurial mindset

Location & Work Style

Fully remote role
West Coast or Central time zones preferred (project/client alignment)
East Coast candidates considered, but must be comfortable with time zone overlap

Compensation & Benefits

💰 ~$200,000 base salary
🎯 Performance-based bonus potential (company + individual performance)
🏖 5 weeks PTO
🏥 100% employer-paid health insurance
💼 Fully funded retirement contributions
🤝 Long-term growth and leadership opportunity within a small, scaling business

Who This Role Is Ideal For

A senior FPE who’s tired of inefficient workflows and wants to work smarter
A seller-doer who enjoys both technical work and client interaction
Someone excited by the idea of AI transforming engineering delivery
An engineer who wants real influence in a small, fast-moving company
