TPG works with designers and developers to manage the creation of high-technology guest experiences from start to finish - or at any stage along the process - bringing them in on schedule, on budget and ready to operate. The benefits to clients lie in the company's ability to balance creative vision, technical design and budget realities throughout the project development process.
Our Glendale office is looking for a Technical Director with previous experience in themed entertainment. The ideal candidate would work in collaboration with our project team on a variety of projects.

What do we require from you:
* The preferred candidate should have a strong technical / operational background in themed entertainment. A Bachelor's Degree in technical theatre or a related field is highly preferred.
* Working technical knowledge and skills to oversee a wide range of performance methods associated with theatre. Must be familiar with design, stage management, sound, video and lighting systems. Mechanical Engineering familiarity is a plus.
* Must be able to work independently with little direction as well as direct discipline-specific designers to assemble an integrated design package.
* Must have excellent written and verbal communication skills. Proven ability to multi-task; must be able to constantly and consistently prioritize workload of senior executives and oneself simultaneously.
