Theatre Consultant / Systems Designer (Senior / Associate Principal)

Denver, CO (Hybrid)

Shape How People Experience Performance Spaces
We design the systems behind unforgettable live experiences.

Our work sits at the intersection of architecture, technology, and performance – helping bring theatres, arenas, and public assembly venues to life. We’re looking for a Theatre Consultant / Systems Designer who wants to take ownership of that impact, working across disciplines to deliver thoughtful, high‑performing spaces.

Design the Systems Behind Exceptional Performance Spaces
We’re looking for a Theatre Consultant / Systems Designer who operates at the intersection of design leadership, technical expertise, and project delivery.

This role is for someone who doesn’t just execute—but shapes projects: guiding clients, influencing design teams, and translating complex performance requirements into clear, buildable solutions.

The Opportunity
You’ll take ownership of theatrical systems design across a range of venues—from early planning through construction—while serving as a key voice in interdisciplinary teams.

You’ll be trusted to:

Lead conversations with architects, engineers, and owners

Define system strategies—not just document them

Elevate both design quality and technical rigor across projects

What You’ll Do

Lead venue planning efforts (sightlines, seating geometry, stage/backstage planning)

Design and integrate theatrical rigging, stage machinery, and lighting systems

Develop clear, biddable narratives, specifications, and documentation

Coordinate deeply with architectural, structural, and MEP teams

Guide projects through Design–Bid–Build, including CA and system verification

Represent the firm in client and design team settings

What Sets You Apart

You think in systems, not just components

You can move between concept, detail, and construction seamlessly

You’re comfortable leading rooms, not just contributing in them

You balance design sensitivity with technical precision

Why This Role

Meaningful ownership and influence on projects

Direct collaboration with senior design teams and clients

Hybrid flexibility

Competitive compensation and full benefits

Clear path toward principal-level leadership

If you’re ready to move from “strong contributor” to “trusted design leader,” we’d like to hear from you.

5+ years relevant experience in theatrical consulting or systems design (2+ years as a Senior Consulant or above)

Proven experience delivering projects through Design–Bid–Build

Strong specifications writing (CSI MasterFormat)

Advanced Revit (preferred) and/or AutoCAD proficiency

Technical expertise in rigging, stage machinery, and lighting systems integration

Working understanding of building systems integration and code constraints
