Job description

Smart Home Consultant

6-Month Contract | S$2,200–S$3,700/month

Smart Theory is looking for a hands‑on Smart Home Consultant to join our growing team.

This role is suitable for someone who enjoys technology, troubleshooting, smart home systems and working directly with customers. You do not need prior smart home experience — training will be provided.

We care much more about attitude, willingness to learn and ownership than how many years of experience you have. We do not micro‑manage, each employee is given the necessary independence to complete their projects.

Compensation

Guaranteed base salary: from S$2,200/month

You will also receive project‑based incentives for completed installations, with the opportunity to earn up to approximately S$1,500 additional per month.

Total monthly compensation can therefore range from approximately S$2,200 to S$3,700, depending on project volume and performance.

Working Arrangement

This is a hybrid role:

~60% On‑site
Smart home configuration, troubleshooting and client handover at residential projects around Singapore.

~40% Work From Home
Offline configuration, documentation, scheduling, testing and other preparation work.

Malaysian applicants are welcome. For suitable candidates, the WFH portion of the role can be completed from Malaysia, subject to operational requirements.

What You'll Be Doing

• Configure smart home devices and systems at client homes
• Set up and troubleshoot devices such as smart switches, sensors, lighting, curtains and smart home hubs
• Explain smart home devices and functionality clearly to homeowners
• Handle client enquiries and provide post‑installation troubleshooting
• Perform offline configuration and testing before installations
• Coordinate project schedules and installation timelines
• Create, document and continuously improve internal SOPs
• Lead and coordinate part‑time technicians during projects
• Assist with testing new smart home products and technologies
• Assist with educational social media content when required

This is not a sales position.

Your role is primarily technical, operational and customer‑facing.

Who We're Looking For

We welcome candidates with:

• 0–3 years of working experience
• Fresh graduates and candidates with no prior experience
• NITEC, Higher NITEC, Diploma or Degree qualifications
• Strong interest in technology, smart homes, IoT or automation
• Comfortable working independently and solving problems
• Good communication skills when dealing with homeowners
• Ability to learn technical systems quickly
• Willingness to travel to different client locations in Singapore
• Ability to take ownership of projects from configuration through handover

Most importantly, we're looking for someone with a good attitude, strong learning mindset and willingness to take responsibility.

Bonus Skills

These aren't required, but would be useful:

Zigbee / Matter / Thread

Networking / Wi‑Fi troubleshooting

Basic electrical knowledge

Smart home devices such as Aqara, Sonoff, Tuya, Broadlink, etc.

AI and LLM tools such as ChatGPT, Codex or Claude

Social media or video‑content creation

Training will be provided, so don't worry if you haven't worked with these systems before.

Career Progression

This role is designed for someone who wants to grow together with the company.

Strong performers can progressively take ownership of larger projects, supervise technicians and help build Smart Theory's operational processes.

There is a potential pathway toward a Team Leader position within approximately 2–3 years, depending on performance, leadership ability and business growth.

About Smart Theory

Smart homes should make everyday life easier — not more complicated or unnecessarily expensive.

Smart Theory is a Singapore smart home company focused on making advanced home automation more accessible to everyday homeowners.

We help homeowners design, configure and integrate smart home systems that bring devices from different brands together into one connected experience.

Instead of locking customers into a single ecosystem, we focus on flexible solutions that can integrate lighting, switches, curtains, air‑conditioning, sensors, appliances and other smart devices into a unified home.

Our work ranges from simple smart home configurations to more advanced automation, scenes and interactive smart home dashboards.

What We Do

Smart Theory works with homeowners throughout the smart home journey, including:

Smart Home Consultation
Planning the system around the homeowner's floor plan, renovation requirements and lifestyle.

Product Sourcing
Helping homeowners identify suitable smart home products without being restricted to a single brand.

Smart Home Configuration
Configuring smart switches, lighting, curtains, sensors, air‑conditioning controls and other connected devices.

Home Automation & Scenes
Creating automations that allow the home to respond intelligently to routines, presence and environmental conditions.

Smart Home Dashboards
Building intuitive dashboards, including interactive floorplan controls that allow homeowners to manage their entire home visually.

Troubleshooting & Integration
Connecting devices from different ecosystems and resolving compatibility or connectivity issues.

Built Around Homeowners, Not Ecosystems

Many smart home systems require homeowners to commit entirely to one brand.

We take a different approach.

Our goal is to help homeowners choose devices based on functionality, reliability and value, then integrate them into a cohesive smart home experience.

This gives homeowners greater flexibility when choosing devices and allows their smart home to evolve over time.

Our Approach

We believe smart home technology should be:

Affordable. Flexible. Practical. Understandable.

That's why we spend a significant amount of time testing devices, researching integrations and finding ways to simplify technologies that can otherwise feel overly technical.

We also share what we learn through educational content on TikTok and Lemon8 under SmartxTheory, helping homeowners understand smart home technology before committing to a system.

Building the Next Generation of Smart Homes

Smart Theory is still growing, and that's intentional.

We're building a company around modern smart home technologies, open ecosystems and increasingly powerful automation tools.

As technologies such as Home Assistant, Matter, Thread and AI continue evolving, we want to make those capabilities practical for everyday homes.

Our goal is simple:

Make powerful smart homes accessible without making homeowners overpay for them.
