    "description": "<h2>Who We Are</h2>\n<p>At Encore Fire Protection, we are proud to be the east coast's largest full-service fire protection company, serving over 90,000 customers from Maine to Louisiana. With a team of over 2,200 dedicated employees, we provide innovative, customized fire suppression, fire sprinkler, and fire alarm solutions that protect lives and properties every day.</p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>Our goal is to deliver superior experience to those who trust us to safeguard what matters most. We are passionate about continuous growth, innovation, and maintaining a culture that thrives on success and commitment to safety. Our mission? To be the best fire protection company the industry has ever seen. </p>\n<h2>The Opportunity</h2>\n<p>Special hazards work is where fire protection stops being “one size fits all” and becomes a true design challenge. This role is for someone who likes high-stakes environments, complex systems, and getting the details right, because the environments you are designing do not leave room for guesswork. </p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>As a Special Hazards Fire Protection Designer at Encore, you will design specialized suppression systems for high-risk settings like data centers, industrial facilities, power plants, and aircraft hangars. You will partner closely with project teams to produce designs that are code-compliant, technically sound, and practical to install, while helping Encore deliver the kind of service quality that keeps customers safe and confident. </p>\n<h2>Key Responsibilities</h2>\n<p>You will be the person who turns risk, code, and engineering reality into a design a team can build from. Your work will include: </p>\n<ul>\n <li><p>Design and layout special hazards fire suppression systems, including but not limited to clean agent systems (for example FM-200, Novec 1230), CO₂ systems, foam suppression systems, water mist systems, and explosion suppression or detection systems.</p></li>\n <li><p>Prepare detailed CAD drawings and system schematics.</p></li>\n <li><p>Perform hydraulic calculations and flow analysis to verify system performance.</p></li>\n <li><p>Ensure design compliance with NFPA codes (for example NFPA 2001, 12, 750), local requirements, and client specifications.</p></li>\n <li><p>Coordinate with architects, engineers, and contractors to integrate fire protection systems into building plans.</p></li>\n <li><p>Review submittals and technical specifications for accuracy and completeness.</p></li>\n <li><p>Assist in developing bills of materials and scope documentation for estimating and procurement.</p></li>\n <li><p>Provide technical support during installation, commissioning, and inspection phases. </p></li>\n</ul>\n<h2>What You Bring to the Table</h2>\n<ul>\n <li><p>Three to five years of experience designing fire protection systems, with a focus on special hazards</p></li>\n <li><p>Hands-on experience with AutoCAD or another CAD platform and Revit; if you have used a different design tool and are comfortable learning new software, we can help you ramp up on AutoCAD</p></li>\n <li><p>Working knowledge of NFPA 72, IBC, and relevant local fire codes, or a strong willingness to learn and apply these standards</p></li>\n <li><p>Proficiency with Microsoft Office tools such as Word and Excel, and the ability to learn new software tools as needed</p></li>\n <li><p>Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines at the same time</p></li>\n <li><p>Solid problem-solving skills and attention to detail, with a focus on accuracy and quality from start to finish</p></li>\n <li><p>Clear written and verbal communication skills and the ability to work effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders</p></li>\n <li><p>Self-motivated, punctual, and reliable, with the ability to work independently and as part of a team</p></li>\n <li><p>A valid driver's license and reliable transportation for site visits and meetings </p></li>\n</ul>\n<p><strong>What Will Make You Stand Out? </strong></p>\n<ul>\n <li><p>You have a bachelor's degree or associate degree in Engineering, Fire Protection, Mechanical Design, or related field.</p></li>\n <li><p>You have a NICET Level II (or higher) in Special Hazards Systems or Fire Protection Engineering Technology.</p></li>\n <li><p>You have experience designing for complex, high-risk environments (for example data centers, industrial, power generation, hangars).</p></li>\n <li><p>You have experience coordinating directly with authorities having jurisdiction on fire alarm designs and submittals. </p></li>\n</ul>\n<p>Salary commensurate with experience with opportunity for a results-driven bonus based on personal output and effectiveness in role. Expected salary range between $55,000 - $65,000 per year.</p>\n<h2>Beyond the Paycheck</h2>\n<p>At Encore, we’re all about creating a culture where success is celebrated.
