We are looking for an experienced Lead Low-Voltage / AV Technician who can take ownership of projects in the field and help lead our installation team.

This is not an entry-level position.

We are looking for someone who can be handed a scope of work, drawings, equipment and a crew and take responsibility for getting the job completed correctly and professionally.

The right person needs to be technically capable, organized, dependable, comfortable communicating with customers, and able to identify problems before they become emergencies.

You will work closely with our Director of Technology and ownership to turn engineered systems into successful installations in the field.

You do not need to be an expert in every system we install. We are looking for someone with strong low-voltage fundamentals who can learn, lead and solve problems.

Technical ability matters, but so does attitude and accountability.

We want someone who:

• Shows up when they say they will
