The Design Engineer (DE) is a member of the core team for each Media & Entertainment (M&E) project. Alone on small projects or part of a team of engineers on large projects, the DE provides technical direction and insight through the project life cycle from sales concept to design development, construction drawings to implementation support. As a technical authority on a project team, the DE is instrumental in the determination and execution of client and system requirements and will collaborate with M&E SME teams as required. Reporting to a Regional Director of Technical Operation (DTO), the DE’s project assignments are determined by Technical Operations Leadership based on enterprise-wide demands. At times, the DE will be supervised and receive specific task assignments by Senior Design Engineers or Project Managers.
