About the role

Institute for Business and Home Safety seeks a Research Engineer to advance wildfire-related research on homes, businesses, and communities. You will design and execute projects, translate research questions into actionable investigations, and collaborate with scientists, laboratories, and external partners to produce science-based guidance for resilience. Responsibilities include planning experiments, coordinating field campaigns, analyzing data, and communicating findings to diverse audiences.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
