Job description

We are partnering with a long-standing, family-owned custom integration company with over 45 years of experience blending smart home technology, lighting control, security, and electrical solutions. As a tight-knit, second-generation firm with a team of around a dozen professionals, this integrator is known for its family-first culture, strong values, and dedication to quality craftsmanship. They are committed to delivering excellence to their clients while genuinely supporting the career growth and work-life balance of their team.

The company is actively growing on both the residential and commercial sides of the business, and they are building out their field team to keep pace.

Company Overview

The company is actively growing on both the residential and commercial sides of the business, and they are building out their field team to keep pace.

Why Join Us?

Supportive, Family-First Culture: This is a team where your life outside of work is respected. Whether it's family time or personal commitments, they get it, and they support it.
A Real Path Into Electrical: Leadership has arranged for a licensed Master Electrician to oversee work, so a technician who wants to build these skills has a genuine route to get there.
Certifications on the Company's Dime: Every technician gets certified on the company's alarm and security platforms after hire. If you're strong on one side of the low voltage world and want to round out the other, this is a place that will train you rather than screen you out.
Cross-Disciplinary Work: This role touches security and access control, AV installation, lighting control, and networking. If you're tired of doing the same install every day, the variety here is real.
Everything You Need to Do the Job Right: Company vehicle, plus all tools and supplies covered. You're not funding the job out of your own pocket.
Company Unity: This is a collaborative, personable, and proud of the community they've built.
