Associate Principal - WiFi/Network

About the Position

The Associate Principal is a mid-level engineering role responsible for leading small- to mid-scale, multi-discipline projects with growing independence. You’ll guide projects from programming through closeout—clarifying requirements, coordinating design, documenting decisions, and ensuring deliverables meet TEECOM’s standards for quality and constructability. You’ll apply strong engineering judgment, maintain alignment with scope, schedule, and budget, and surface risks early to keep projects on track. You’ll strengthen TEECOM’s system by contributing to GitHub, documenting client-specific nuances, and improving standards, tools, and workflows. Externally, you’ll cultivate strong client relationships—building trust through clear communication, reliable follow-through, and thoughtful problem-solving. You’ll also begin developing credibility through thought-leadership activities by supporting pursuits, contributing technical narratives, participating in interviews, and helping develop content such as blogs, white papers, or presentations. Internally, you’ll mentor Designers and engineers through hands-on guidance, reviews, and feedback that strengthen discipline capability and reinforce TEECOM’s standards.

This position reflects strong engineering capability, reliable project leadership, and growing influence in shaping TEECOM’s systems, documentation, and delivery.

Leadership, Mentorship, and Technical Influence

As an Associate Principal, your impact comes not only from the quality of your own discipline work, but from how effectively you guide project teams, strengthen coordination, and support the growth of TEECOM’s engineers. You contribute in three key ways:

• Mentor and Support Engineers: You strengthen project teams by guiding Designers and Associates, reinforcing disciplined design practices, clear documentation, and sound technical judgment. You contribute to TEECOM’s talent pipeline by serving as either a Mentor or a Mentee—helping grow others while also expanding your own capability.
• Contribute to Training and Knowledge: You elevate team capability by actively engaging in design reviews, debriefs, and cross-discipline discussions that improve shared understanding and decision-making.
• Improve the TEECOM System: You reinforce firmwide consistency by applying standards reliably and maintaining clear, accurate discipline documentation that others can depend on.

What Success in this Position Looks Like

You deliver accurate, well-coordinated discipline designs on mid- to large-size projects with increasing independence and reliable follow-through. You apply strong judgment—identifying risks early, resolving discipline conflicts, and supporting cross-discipline coordination. You maintain disciplined documentation across drawings, specifications, calculations, and decision logs, enabling predictable project delivery. You improve TEECOM’s system by providing actionable feedback, proposing workflow refinements, and submitting targeted Pull Requests. You communicate clearly with clients and design partners—documenting decisions, clarifying requirements, and keeping teams aligned.

Responsibilities and Expectations

These responsibilities and expectations represent what is required to successfully perform the essential functions of this role.

• Partner with Project Leads, Group Leads, and senior engineers to strengthen coordination strategy, discipline consistency, and delivery reliability across projects.
• Participate in performance assessments and demonstrate measurable growth in engineering judgment, project leadership, and system contribution.
• Lead technical design reviews that reinforce TEECOM standards, improve documentation clarity, and identify coordination risks early.
• Strengthen team capability by mentoring Designers and engineers through clear technical guidance, markups, and feedback.

Experience and Qualifications

Education: Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Electrical preferred) or equivalent experience.

Experience: 6+ years of experience in AEC or related professional services with demonstrated discipline-specific capability.

Preferred: Experience leading discipline portions of mid- to large-size projects, supporting coordination, and providing guidance to Designers or engineers.

Strong proficiency in Autodesk (AutoCAD, Revit), Bluebeam Studio, Microsoft 365 Suite, Google Workspace, and GitHub.

Physical Demands

Prolonged desk work using a computer, keyboard, mouse, and telephone. Regular reading, writing, and communication in virtual and in-person settings. Occasional travel to client sites for meetings, surveys, or inspections.

Work Environment

Approximately 75% of work is performed in a remote or office environment using standard office equipment. Approximately 25% occurs at client sites, including construction environments and existing facilities.

Compensation

£85,000 - £105,000 a year. This compensation will vary depending on your role-related skills, experience, knowledge, and subject matter expertise.
