Work Environment This role supports a design-build environment focused on metal framing and structural support systems for healthcare and data center projects. The primary office location is Addison, IL, with additional team members based in Tampa, FL, and Arizona, and projects are located across the United States. The Addison headquarters has approximately 30 employees and operates on a hybrid schedule of four days in the office and one day remote. BIM resources include a small, specialized team in Addison and Tampa, with additional support from Arizona, where an off-site manufacturing and prefabrication group of about eight employees focuses heavily on large industrial and data center work. The work is fast-paced and can be chaotic at times due to project demands, reflecting the complexity of healthcare facility renovations, surgical centers, hospital projects, lighting replacement driven by equipment lifecycle, and structural support systems for medical infrastructure.
