Job description

Want to build the infrastructure behind the world's digital future?

We're currently working with multiple leading engineering firms across North Carolina that are expanding their Fire Protection teams within the rapidly growing mission critical and data center sector.

Why Consider a Move?

The mission critical sector is one of the fastest-growing areas of engineering right now - and North Carolina is at the centre of it.

• Work on hyperscale data centers – Get involved with some of the largest and most technically challenging engineering projects in the market.
• Data center experience isn't essential!!
• North Carolina is booming – Join one of the fastest-growing engineering and technology markets in the Southeast, with major investment and development continuing across the state.
• Competitive packages – Opportunities offer strong base salaries, bonuses, benefits, flexible working, and relocation support.
• Find the right fit – Rather than being tied to one employer, we're able to discuss multiple opportunities and find the best match for your experience and ambitions!

What We're Looking For

We're speaking with Fire Protection Engineers across a range of experience levels, including:

• PEs, EITs, and engineers without either certification.
• Engineers currently working in mission critical / data centers.
• Engineers looking to transition into data centers from other sectors.
• Backgrounds in commercial, healthcare, industrial, manufacturing, institutional, or other complex building projects.

You don't need to have the perfect background. Technical ability, willingness to learn, and ambition are often more important than direct data center experience.
