Smart Home & Audio Video Home Theater Technician - Charlotte NC

CLT- Install Full Time Charlotte, Pineville, NC, US

30+ days ago Requisition ID: 1014

Salary Range: $25.00 To $40.00 Hourly

Build Incredible Systems in Incredible Homes

If you’re the kind of person who notices the AV rack before the television, has strong opinions about how a cable should be dressed, or gets genuine satisfaction from making a complicated system work flawlessly, you’ll probably fit in pretty well here.

At Audio Advice, we’re a team of people who are passionate — some might say a little obsessed — about great audio, video, home automation, networking, lighting, and technology.

And we get to work on some amazing projects.

Our residential installation teams work in many of the finest homes in the communities we serve, designing and installing technology for successful homeowners who expect things to be done right. One day you may be commissioning a dedicated home theater. The next, you could be bringing together whole-home audio, lighting, networking, security, motorized shades, and automation into one seamless system.

We are looking for an experienced Lead Installation Technician who wants to be at the center of that work.

This isn't simply a senior technician position. You’ll lead crews, solve the hard technical problems, mentor developing technicians, work directly with Project Managers and system designers, and help ensure that every finished project represents the level of craftsmanship Audio Advice is known for.

If you love the combination of technology, craftsmanship, problem solving, leadership, and amazing residential projects, this could be a very rewarding place to build your career.

What You'll Do

Lead High-End Residential Installations

You’ll take the technical lead on sophisticated residential technology projects, including:

Premium audio and video systems

Dedicated home theaters and media rooms

Whole-home distributed audio and video

Smart home automation and control systems

Enterprise-grade residential networking and Wi‑Fi

Lighting control and motorized systems

Equipment racks and centralized technology infrastructure

Structured wiring and low-voltage systems

You'll install, configure, test, commission, and troubleshoot systems while making sure the finished work is clean, organized, reliable, and built to Audio Advice standards.

That means everything matters — from what the customer sees on the wall to what another technician finds when they open the equipment rack years later.

Be the Technical Leader on the Job Site

As a Lead Technician, people will look to you when the project gets complicated.

You’ll:

Lead installation teams in the field

Assign and coordinate daily installation work

Solve complex technical and installation challenges

Work closely with Project Managers to keep projects moving

Identify field conditions that require design or scope changes

Maintain high standards for workmanship, safety, efficiency, and professionalism

Help ensure projects are completed correctly the first time

You won't just be responsible for your own work. You'll help make the entire team better.

Develop the Next Generation of Technicians

Some of the best technicians in our company learned their craft working alongside someone who took the time to teach them.

We expect our Lead Technicians to do the same.

You’ll mentor less-experienced technicians, demonstrate proper installation practices, teach troubleshooting skills, and help teammates understand not just how something should be done, but why.

We're looking for someone who takes pride in building great systems and great technicians.

Work Directly With Our Customers

Our customers invite us into their homes and trust us with technology that may be integrated throughout the entire property.

That requires a different level of professionalism.

You’ll often serve as the senior technical representative on the job site, communicating with homeowners, builders, designers, architects, and other trades.

You'll explain systems clearly, provide project updates, answer technical questions, and make sure our work environment remains clean and respectful.

Technical ability gets the system working.

Professionalism and service are what make the customer want Audio Advice back for the next project.

What We're Looking For

Required

5+ years of experience in low-voltage installation, AV integration, smart home technology, or a related technical field

Strong knowledge of residential audio, video, networking, and control systems

Experience leading projects, crews, or technicians in the field

Advanced troubleshooting and problem-solving ability

Strong understanding of installation practices including cable pulling, termination, labeling, equipment mounting, and rack construction

Ability to use hand tools, power tools, ladders, and test equipment safely

Strong communication skills and confidence interacting with customers

Valid driver's license and clean driving record

Ability to lift up to 50 lbs. and perform installation work involving ladders, attics, crawlspaces, and other residential job-site environments

Even Better If You Have

Experience with high-end residential AV integration

Strong networking knowledge including routers, managed switches, VLANs, access points, and Wi‑Fi optimization

Experience with platforms such as Control4, Savant, Crestron, or similar automation systems

Experience with dedicated home theaters, distributed AV, lighting control, or motorized shades

Manufacturer or industry certifications

The Kind of Person Who Thrives Here

Technology changes constantly, and complicated projects rarely go exactly according to the drawing.

The people who succeed at Audio Advice are curious, accountable, resourceful, and comfortable figuring things out.

You'll fit particularly well if you:

Take pride in craftsmanship

Notice details other people miss

Stay calm when something doesn't work the first time

Hold yourself and your team to high standards

Enjoy teaching people what you know

Want to keep learning

Treat customers' homes with the same care you would treat your own

Actually enjoy talking about AV, networking, automation, and new technology with coworkers who enjoy it just as much
