About this role

UL Solutions is seeking a Senior Building Inspector to evaluate fire and life safety compliance across commercial, industrial, residential, and hospitality properties in the Nashville area. You'll conduct detailed inspections of complex buildings and fire protection systems, interpret technical codes and drawings, document violations, and work directly with building owners and facility managers to ensure adherence to local and international standards. The role demands strong knowledge of building codes, the ability to identify non-compliant installations, and excellent communication skills to explain findings and guide corrective action.

The work requires meticulous attention to detail, current knowledge of evolving codes and standards, and a commitment to business integrity and safety compliance.

The salary range is $85,000 to $105,000 with a target annual bonus of 10%, plus standard full-time benefits including medical, dental, vision, wellness programs, 401(k), and 27 days of paid time off annually.
