Vibrasure is hiring: we are currently seeking a Senior Acoustical Consultant to join our staff to help grow our residential and commercial acoustical capabilities.

General computer skills and familiarity with office software (MS Office; Adobe / Bluebeam; Sketchup / AutoCAD / Revit)
Preference given to those familiar with software development and data processing tools (Python; C; Linux; VBA; etc.)
