Residential Security & AV Installation Technician

Amplify People•Chesterfield, MO

3d•$25 - $35•Onsite

About The Position

We are hiring a Residential Security & AV Installation Technician to install, program, and service systems across residential and commercial projects throughout the St. Louis metro area. This is a hands-on role for an experienced technician who can contribute from the first week. Because the team is small, everyone has the ability to make an impact. This is not a lead technician position and you won't be asked to run crews, but you will be trusted to own your work. The ideal candidate understands both the security and the AV sides of the business: alarm and life safety systems, access control, surveillance, and network configuration alongside rack building, structured wiring, and control system programming. Strength in both is the target. Genuine strength in one, paired with a real appetite to learn the other, is very much worth a conversation.

Requirements

Hands-on field experience installing and servicing security systems, AV and smart home systems, or both.
Working knowledge of at least one side of the business at a professional level, with demonstrated willingness to learn the other.
Ability to wire, terminate, and troubleshoot low voltage systems independently.
Comfortable and professional working in clients' homes.
Strong, timely communicator. Leadership stays in close contact throughout the day and expects responsiveness.
Adaptable and coachable. The company has established ways of doing things and needs someone willing to work within them.
A track record of stability rather than frequent job changes.
Valid driver's license and clean driving record (required, no exceptions).
Successful completion of a pre-employment drug screen and background check.
Own hand tools, including cordless drills, multi-tools, and testing equipment. The company provides corded power tools and specialty equipment.
