Job description

Explico is seeking a Fire Investigator and Field Technician for our Novi, Michigan office.

We are a scientific and engineering consulting firm specializing in collision reconstruction, biomechanics, human factors, transportation engineering, data analysis, mechanical failure analysis, and forensic visualization.

We assist clients in understanding complex technical problems by :

  • Providing premium technical consulting services
  • Taking full advantage of modern, state-of-the-art tools
  • Effectively communicating findings directly to clients or in a courtroom setting

As a Field Technician, your primary responsibilities will be to conduct technical on-site investigations related to vehicle and marine collisions, fires and explosions, along with any required follow-up examinations, and report the findings to Explico staff members.

The position is based in our Novi, Michigan office but involves extensive field work throughout the US, with occasional travel elsewhere in the U.S. required.

Day-to-day activities will include :

  • Inspect and investigate structures and vehicles involved in collisions and fires using a 3D scanner, surveying tools, digital cameras, EDR diagnostic equipment and other technical inspection equipment
  • Document evidence
  • Import data into technical software (AutoCAD, HVE, Reality, Scene and more)
  • Report inspection findings to Explico staff
  • Perform basic technical analysis at the direction of the Explico staff
  • Maintain inspection equipment
  • Other duties as assigned
  • Ideal candidates will have a mix of fire investigation experience, mechanical aptitude, computer proficiency, learning agility, and engineering knowledge.

    Mechanically and technically inclined, you are drawn to hands-on work and state-of-the-art tools.

    You enjoy coming up with new and innovative ways to solve problems and are excited to use Explico's tools and find creative ways of applying them to the investigation of real-world accidents.

    Attentive to detail, organized, and punctual, you notice and document details that others may miss.

    An effective communicator, you are comfortable communicating with technical and non-technical individuals, whether written or verbally.

    We think you'll need :

  • Bachelor's Degree in Engineering or related technical degree
  • FAA Part 107 Drone License is a plus
  • NAFI Certified Fire and Explosion Investigator (or equivalent) a plus
  • Marine fire investigation experience is a plus
  • Experience with Lidar or 3D scanning tools is a plus
  • Experience with AutoCAD and / or other technical software is a plus
  • Proficiency with common business software (MS Office, Keynote and more)
  • Willingness to travel with little notice within Michigan and across the country
  • Ability to lift 50 pounds
  • Ability to maneuver in, under, and around on-site crash vehicles and marine vessels
  • Flawless driving record, or only minimal minor infractions
  • Benefits include competitive pay, monthly and annual bonus opportunities, paid time off, matching 401(k) contributions up to 6%, full healthcare coverage, life and disability insurance, and an educational assistance program.

    Starting salary range for this position is $55,000 to $100,000 annually, depending on qualifications and experience.

    Explico is an equal opportunity employer, including disability. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or other protected characteristic.
