Job Description
Job DescriptionA day in this role
You start your morning in Williamsburg, VA, reviewing a site survey for a new commercial client. By mid-morning, you’re mounting projectors and tuning a sound system so the boardroom’s video conferencing is crystal clear. After lunch, you pivot to security—placing IP cameras, commissioning an alarm panel, and validating access control credentials. You wrap the day by walking the client through their new setup, answering questions, and logging detailed installation notes before heading to the next service call.

What sets you up for success
- Hands-on experience installing and maintaining both AV and security systems.
- Strong working knowledge of AV gear and security technologies, plus comfort reading schematics and technical drawings.
- Sharp troubleshooting instincts and attention to the small details that matter.
- Clear communication and a team-first mindset, with the ability to work independently when needed.
- Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation for regional travel.
- Industry credentials such as CTS or NICET are a bonus.
