    • Home theaters and media rooms

    • TV mounting and structured wiring

    • Networking equipment (routers, switches, access points)

    • CCTV systems (IP cameras, NVRs, remote access setup)

    • Smart home systems (lighting control, automation, water monitoring, etc.)

  • Terminate, label, and test low-voltage wiring

  • Rack build-out and clean cable management

  • System programming and client handoff

Leadership & Client Experience

  • Supervise and mentor junior technicians

  • Maintain high installation standards and jobsite cleanliness

  • Communicate clearly and professionally with clients

  • Conduct system walkthroughs and training at project completion

  • Support service department with escalated troubleshooting when needed

Qualifications

  • 5+ years experience in residential AV, low-voltage, or smart home installation

  • Proven experience managing projects and leading teams

  • Strong knowledge of:

    • Home networking fundamentals (IP addressing, VLANs, WiFi optimization)

    • Distributed audio/video systems

    • CCTV systems and remote access configuration

    • Structured wiring best practices

  • Ability to read blueprints and wiring schematics

  • Clean, organized rack-building and cable management skills

  • Strong troubleshooting abilities

  • Valid driver’s license and clean driving record

Preferred Certifications (not required but a plus):

  • Control4, Savant, or Crestron certification

  • Networking certifications (Ubiquiti, Araknis, Cisco, etc.)

What We’re Looking For

  • A leader who takes ownership of projects

  • Detail-oriented and quality-driven

  • Calm under pressure and solutions-focused

  • Professional and client-friendly

  • Passionate about technology and staying current with industry trends

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive salary based on experience

  • Performance bonuses

  • Company vehicle or vehicle allowance (if applicable)

  • Paid time off

  • Ongoing training and certification opportunities

  • Career growth into senior operations or technical leadership roles

Why Join Us?

We are not just installers — we are long-term technology partners for our clients. This role offers the opportunity to lead high-end residential projects, work with cutting-edge technology, and be part of a company that values quality, service, and long-term relationships.

If you’re ready to step into a leadership role and build exceptional smart home experiences, we’d love to hear from you.
