rigging systems. Comprehensive knowledge in lighting/rigging system
design and integration. Familiarity with AutoCAD, Revit, or

are a plus. Sharp eye for detail, excellent organizational skills,
and ability to collaborate across teams. Excellent communication
and interpersonal skills. Benefits: Competitive compensation
