Architectural Lighting Designer

Tirschwell & Co., Inc. is looking for a full-time Lighting Designer who is keen to detail and has two to four years of relevant work experience in residential or commercial lighting design.

The candidate will be well organized, resourceful, dedicated, and have excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills. The candidate should aspire to rise in their profession and witness their projects come to life, in person.

At TLD we want you to be the best you. Our mission is to see our projects come into actuality while giving you the opportunity to build yourself up in the lighting sector. If you have an excellent resume, meet the requirements, and are ready to make a change to a company that values what you bring to the table, we are excited to speak with you.

Look, any lighting design firm will have pretty photos of past projects. That is great, but it doesn't give you a sense of the culture and vibe of the office. So ask around. Ask the sales reps if you know any of the following: Ho-San Chang, Jennifer Mason, Matthew Dacey, Jason Leeds, Mark Gold, or Asher Schoenberg.

After you send in your resume and if we do contact you, the first interview is with Matthew Tirschwell. But you are the interviewer. You get to ask the questions. We want you to be excited about what we do here. And then, if you think this could be the right place for you to grow, then you tell us if you would like to continue the interview process.
