Theatre Projects is looking to add a Lighting Systems Designer to our team in New York or Connecticut. The Lighting Systems Designer will design experiential and performance lighting packages for performance venues; event spaces; immersive environments; experiential spaces; and retail, education, and corporate environments. Design work will include content and creative conceptualization, lighting plots, specification and layout of positions, fixtures, controls, control interfaces, and control systems.

We’re looking for an experiential designer with experience in architectural lighting and entertainment/immersive lighting design. They will have a broad knowledge of control systems and networked systems, especially at the interface of lighting and AV control systems. The right match for our team will be well-versed in the needs of temporary productions and permanent installations, have solid understanding of the interconnectedness and convergence of control protocols, be comfortable on sales calls, and be able to communicate complex concepts to clients.

We prefer this position to be located in our New York or Connecticut office, but candidates from Denver will also be considered. Salary range and title listed below are for candidates at the stated senior consultant level. Candidates with more seniority will also be considered.

 

A full job description will be available through the Applicant Tracking System, but in general, this position will:

  • Design and lay out performance lighting systems, network systems, and theatrical lighting plots using strong understanding of architectural and theatrical lighting control systems and dimming protocols
  • Work in 2D and 3D CAD and BIM platforms to develop designs and documentation, including Revit, ElumTools, AutoCAD, and Bluebeam
  • Design pixel-mapped systems including calculating power supply requirements and determining power and data injection within a large array of pixels
  • Define head end equipment and media servers and map and commission such systems
  • Design systems to generate live content through user feedback, including motion tracking, dimmers, sliders, and environmental inputs

 

We’re looking for someone who has:

  • Technical experience in architectural, corporate, event, museum, art piece, and performance lighting design, and control system design
  • Experience in industry-standard software platforms: Revit, AutoCAD, and ElumTools. Current proficiency in these software platforms is highly valued, but willingness to become proficient quickly is required.
  • Experience with motion tracking, dimmers, sliders, and environmental inputs for live content installations
  • Experience creating efficient interfaces between lighting and other control systems, such as AV

 

Although these skills and experiences are not required, they would be highly valued in candidates for this position:

  • IES membership
  • Experience in motion control
  • Experience with light and projection modeling software platforms such as WYSIWYG
  • Experience in themed entertainment or immersive design
  • Experience in projection design and projection equipment
