Remote Fire Engineer – Work From Anywhere – Join a Cutting‑Edge Safety Team

“`html

Are you a fire protection specialist who thrives in a fully remote environment? Our client, a leading international engineering consultancy, is seeking a talented Fire Engineer to design, analyze, and certify fire safety solutions for diverse projects worldwide—all from the comfort of your home office.

Salary Range

Estimated compensation: $70,000 – $95,000 USD per year, based on experience, certifications, and regional cost‑of‑living adjustments.

About the Role

As a Remote Fire Engineer, you will be responsible for delivering fire safety engineering services across commercial, industrial, and residential sectors. You’ll collaborate with architects, structural engineers, and project managers via video conference, shared BIM platforms, and cloud‑based calculation tools. Your work will directly influence the safety and compliance of high‑profile developments in North America, Europe, and Asia.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop fire‑engineering designs, including sprinkler systems, fire detection & alarm, and egress strategies.
• Perform fire modelling, smoke control analysis, and performance‑based design calculations using software such as PyroSim, FDS, and Pathfinder.
• Prepare fire safety reports, calculations, and construction documents that meet NFPA, IBC, and local code requirements.
• Conduct virtual site reviews and coordinate with contractors to ensure design intent is executed correctly.
• Stay current with evolving fire codes, standards, and emerging technologies; share insights with the global team.
• Mentor junior engineers through remote training sessions and code‑review webinars.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Fire Protection Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related discipline (Master’s preferred).
• Professional Engineer (PE) license or equivalent certification (e.g., CFE, CFPE) is highly desirable.
• Minimum 3‑5 years of hands‑on fire engineering experience on multi‑disciplinary projects.
• Proficiency with fire analysis tools (e.g., Fire Dynamics Simulator, PyroSim, Safe Design) and BIM software (Revit, Navisworks).
• Strong knowledge of NFPA 13, NFPA 72, IBC, IFC, and international fire safety codes.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; ability to convey complex technical concepts in clear, concise reports.
• Self‑motivated, highly organized, and comfortable managing multiple remote projects simultaneously.
• Reliable high‑speed internet connection and a dedicated home office setup.

Benefits & Perks

• Fully remote work – no commuting, flexible hours across time zones.
• Competitive salary with annual performance bonuses.
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage for you and eligible dependents.
• 401(k) plan with employer match.
• Generous paid time off, including holidays, sick days, and a “mental health” day each quarter.
• Professional development stipend for certifications, webinars, and conferences.
• State‑of‑the‑art virtual collaboration tools and a technology allowance for home‑office equipment.
• Inclusive, globally diverse team culture with regular virtual coffee chats, team‑building events, and mentorship programs.

Why This Remote Position Stands Out

Working remotely as a Fire Engineer with our client means you’ll be at the forefront of innovative safety solutions without geographic constraints. You’ll have autonomy over your schedule, access to cutting‑edge simulation software hosted in the cloud, and the opportunity to influence fire safety standards on projects that shape skylines around the world.

How to Apply

If you’re ready to bring your fire engineering expertise to a dynamic, fully remote team, prepare a résumé highlighting relevant projects, certifications, and software proficiencies. Include a brief cover letter explaining why remote work fuels your best performance and how you stay connected and collaborative in a virtual setting.

Equal Opportunity Employer

Our client is committed to building a diverse workforce. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or veteran status.
