Job Description
Experienced Low Voltage Cable Technician — Fiber, Copper & Security Systems
Greater Reno, NV (on-site, multi-site travel) | Full-Time or Contract | $30-$35/hour
The Opportunity
The best cable techs don't just pull wire — they build the infrastructure every business runs on. Our client is hiring an experienced Low Voltage Cable Infrastructure Technician to install, maintain, and troubleshoot structured cabling, fiber optic, and security/access control systems across commercial sites in the Reno area. If you can terminate Cat6 cleanly, splice fiber confidently, and walk a client through your finished work with pride, this role offers diverse projects and real variety — no two sites alike.
Why You'll Love It
- Skilled work, not grunt work: Fusion splicing, Fluke testing, site surveys, and troubleshooting — your expertise is the product
- Project variety: Commercial buildings across the region, from network drops to security systems
- Independence: Run your own work orders, interface directly with clients, own your installs
- Flexible engagement: Full-time or contract options available
What You'll Do
- Plan, run, route, and terminate copper (Cat5e/Cat6) and fiber optic cable infrastructure
- Diagnose and resolve network and telecom issues; perform cable testing and performance verification
- Read blueprints, specs, and customer orders; prepare installation diagrams and site surveys
- Review work orders with client contacts on arrival and walk them through completed work for sign-off
- Maintain accurate documentation of installs, materials, repairs, and network layouts
- Manage inventory of supplies, tools, and test equipment; prep materials for projects
- Follow all safety regulations, building codes, and industry standards
What You'll Bring
- 2–5+ years of hands-on cable infrastructure installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting
- Proficiency with Cat5e/Cat6 and fiber optic work — fusion splicing and termination
- Experience with Fluke or similar test equipment for copper and fiber
- Understanding of network architecture, LAN/WAN, and telecom systems
- Bonus: security cameras, access control, and network equipment (routers, switches, servers)
- Comfort working at heights, in small spaces, and across multiple sites
- High school diploma or equivalent; technical training preferred
- Valid driver's license with a clean record; must pass background check and drug screen
