Radius Systems was founded in 2006 with the mission of being the best building automation systems company in the region. Through this mission we have developed strong and lasting partnerships with many loyal customers in both the public and private sectors, fueled by our effort, commitment to excellence, exemplary performance/project execution, and highly responsive long-term support. The foundation of these business partnerships is our ethics, highly competent personnel, and great products. Our commitment to our employees to develop their skills and knowledge and allow for continuous personal and professional growth has led to a great organization filled with long-term employees.
The BAS industry is one of the fastest-growing industries worldwide. It involves a unique mix of computer hardware and software, integration and communications with a multitude of building systems, graphical interfaces, many wonderful elements of mechanical engineering (heat transfer, thermodynamics, controls, fluid dynamics, instrumentation, psychometrics, etc.), energy measurement and optimization, and much more. It is one of the most technically diverse and interesting professions available to you, is constantly evolving, and provides endless opportunities for mental and professional growth.
We are focused on doing the right things always for our customers, which makes our employees feel great about helping people and our customers feel great when they realize that we are truly committed to what is best for them. We also tell every employee the day they start that what happens next is entirely up to them: We will facilitate their growth in every way, but the effort they put in and their ability to learn are what will drive their success. This creates a culture of achievement.
We are fully committed to the idea of growing our workforce from the ground up. Penn College was the perfect place to start via the building automation program, as it does an outstanding job of teaching both the theory and hands-on, practical elements of our industry. The results have been great: A significant number of our employees are PCT graduates, who continue to grow into higher levels of responsibility throughout our business.
The results speak for themselves. The students we've hired have consistently risen through the ranks of our company and have been an absolute essential part of allowing us to grow very rapidly as a business.
Knowledge they've gained in school; ability to work well with others; curiosity; drive and ambition.
Do it. The BAS industry is growing exponentially, there are more jobs than people to fill them, and it is a technology-driven industry that will continue to expand and grow. Forty years from now you will be thrilled that you made the decision.
“Put in as much time and effort as you can to your chosen field of study and raise your level of knowledge and understanding as fast as you can.
