The Opportunity

If you are an experienced crew lead, site lead, or project manager who thrives on running a job site, developing people, and taking pride in doing trade work the right way, this position is for you.

We don't just install fixtures and speakers; we design and build high-end, luxury outdoor transformations. As our Lead Technician, you will own the field execution from job site to final walk-through. You will lead your crew from the front, hands dirty and standard set, while collaborating closely with our design and sales teams to bring luxury outdoor lighting, audio, and shade projects to life.

You don't need a background in lighting to succeed here. If you've led crews in landscaping, irrigation, hardscape, or residential outdoor living, we provide the training, the products, and decades of team experience to turn your trade leadership into lighting mastery, plus a clear path to grow as we grow.

The Role & Responsibilities
  • Lead the Crew: Run daily field operations. Plan the work, manage the day, and lead your team through installation, troubleshooting, and maintenance with precision.

  • Develop the Team: Train and mentor less-experienced technicians on technical execution, safety, and best practices, and watch them grow under your guidance.

  • Own the Job Site: Keep every site clean, organized, and on standard from start to finish, because the job site reflects the team running it.

  • Technical Execution: Install and maintain premium outdoor lighting, audio, and shade systems, operating hand tools, power tools, and trenching equipment safely and efficiently.

  • Flawless Delivery: Collaborate with design, sales, and landscape teams to integrate lighting with hardscapes, trees, and outdoor features, and communicate directly with clients to deliver their vision exactly.

What You Bring to the Table (The A-Player Profile)
  • The "Leader" Mindset: A hands-on crew lead who sets the standard through how they work, not just what they say. You lead from the front and still grab a shovel when the job calls for it.

  • High Integrity & Character: Professional, respectful, trustworthy, and customer-focused. You possess a strong sense of pride in workmanship and craftsmanship.

  • Team-First Alignment: A mentor at heart who develops people, with deep respect for systems, processes, and safety. You are coachable and constantly looking to improve.

  • Problem Solver: Exceptionally reliable, accountable, detail-oriented, and highly adaptable when facing unique property layouts or job site challenges.

Position Requirements
  • Experience: 3+ years in landscape, hardscape, irrigation, or outdoor living installation, ideally including experience leading or managing a crew as a crew lead, site lead, or project manager. Lighting experience is a plus, not a requirement.

  • Location: Must be located within 20 miles of Burbank, CA.

  • Flexibility: Willing to occasionally work evenings and weekends to meet project timelines and client appointments.

  • Logistics: Must have a dedicated, insured vehicle and a valid driver's license with a clean driving record.

  • Language: Fluent in English (Spanish is a strong plus).

  • Background Check: Ability to pass a standard background check.
