LIGHTWORKS is looking for an experienced Senior AV & Lighting Systems Programmer / Integrator to join our San Diego team.

This senior technical role focuses on programming, commissioning, systems integration, networking, lighting control and advanced troubleshooting. This is not a traditional installer or service technician position. You should be comfortable in the field, but your primary value will come from your ability to program, integrate, commission and solve complex technical problems.

What You'll Do

• Program, configure and commission Savant systems.
• Program, commission and troubleshoot Lutron HomeWorks and other Lutron lighting control systems.
• Configure keypads, scenes, loads, schedules and system logic.
• Configure and support Crestron Home systems.
• Configure and troubleshoot residential networks, Wi-Fi and connected devices.
• Commission distributed audio, video and home theater systems.
• Integrate AV, lighting, shades, networking and other connected-home systems.
• Troubleshoot programming, networking, communication, wiring, load and device issues.
• Review system designs and drawings; identify issues before they become field problems.
• Perform final system testing, commissioning and quality control.
• Support and mentor technicians and help improve LIGHTWORKS programming standards.

What We're Looking For

• Significant high-end residential systems experience.
• Strong Savant programming and commissioning experience.
• Strong Lutron HomeWorks programming, commissioning and troubleshooting experience.
• Strong residential networking knowledge and advanced diagnostic ability.
• Experience commissioning complete integrated systems.
• Ability to read architectural, electrical and AV drawings.
• Strong client communication skills and ability to work independently.
• High standards for documentation and workmanship.

Technology Experience

Experience with Savant, Crestron Home, Lutron HomeWorks, RadioRA, Ketra, Control4, UniFi, IP audio, surveillance and access control is highly valued. You do not need every platform; we value strong fundamentals, problem-solving ability and a desire to keep learning.

Why LIGHTWORKS?

LIGHTWORKS designs and delivers AV, networking, lighting control, electrical, shades and smart-home systems for sophisticated custom residences. We invest in professional development through LIGHTWORKS University, manufacturer training and continuing education. LIGHTWORKS is also a member of The Guild, connecting our team with leading custom integration companies and professionals across the industry.

Requirements

• Valid driver's license and safe driving record.
• Ability to pass required pre-employment screening.
• Ability to work safely in active construction environments.
• Ability to travel up to 3-4 workdays per month, including day trips and overnight stays. Occasional evening or weekend work may also be required based on project needs.

If you are the person others call when a system will not commission, a network will not communicate, or an integration simply does not work, we would like to meet you.
