About The Position

We’re a San Francisco lighting design + manufacturing company built for environments that can’t go dark. We specialize in data center and mission-critical lighting — over 35 million square feet illuminated across the U.S. — and we’re the first lighting manufacturer certified by the International Data Center Authority (IDCA). We design in-house, partner tightly with manufacturing, and ship solutions that actually survive hot aisles, long runtimes, and real uptime pressure. We’re growing fast and looking for a sharp, detail-obsessed Technical Project Coordinator who wants to learn the technical side of lighting while keeping projects moving. This role reports directly to the Director of Program Management & Implementations and sits primarily at our SF headquarters (hybrid).
