Position Summary

Join Our HIT Team at ASD® – Where Field Experience Meets Project Leadership

Have you pulled cable, mounted cameras, or programmed panels, and now want to run the whole job? Do you know what a site should look like before the first technician shows up? Are you the person who can walk a site, spot what's missing, and own the fix? If so, ASD's HIT Team needs you.

The HIT Team is ASD's group of technical, travel-ready Project Managers. We send them where field knowledge matters most: new customers, new technologies, complex sites, and projects that need a steady hand.

What You Will Be Doing

As a Technical Project Manager, you own the scope, schedule, and budget of your projects from intake to closeout. You lead security and low-voltage projects for enterprise clients, using ASD's network of Authorized ASD Installers (AASDIs), W-2 field technicians, and our Remote Support Engineering team. Your field background lets you judge site conditions, installer quality, and readiness first-hand, not just from a report.

Key Responsibilities

• Own scope, schedule, and budget
• Own each project's scope, baseline schedule, and budget from booking through closeout.
• Keep the entire scope on time and within budget while delivering high-quality installation for the client.
• Meet internal gross-profit targets and keep each project's cash flow positive.
• Keep forecasts, projections, invoicing, and costs current in ServiceNow and company dashboards.
• Manage change orders with signed, written customer approval before work starts.
• Spot risks early, escalating them, and protecting margin through closeout.
• Work in the field (travel as needed)
• Travel to customer sites to perform pre-construction inspections and confirm site readiness.
• Lead subcontractor interviews and site walks to vet AASDIs and partners before mobilization.
• Oversee and take part in commissioning , functional testing, and customer acceptance.
• Check installation quality and document site conditions with photos, punch lists, and as-builts.

HIT Team responsibilities

• Help onboard new customers and technologies, and stabilize projects that need recovery.
• Serve as the Technical Decision Authority on live projects: make the technical decisions and author the initial scope of work (SOW) for all stakeholders. The Remote Support Engineering team serves as the day-to-day point of contact.
• Build and maintain strong client relationships and expectations.
• Share field knowledge with peers and help raise the PMO's technical skill level.

Required Qualifications

• Hands-on field experience installing or servicing at least two of the following: structured cabling (copper and/or fiber), intrusion detection systems, access control systems, audio-visual (A/V) systems, video surveillance systems, fire alarm systems.
• 2+ years of project management or field lead experience on low-voltage or security projects.
• Proven ability to own scope, schedule, and budget on projects of moderate size and complexity.
• Willing and able to travel to job sites as needed, averaging about one to two trips a month.
• Valid driver's license and ability to meet travel requirements.
• Strong organization and communication skills, written and verbal.

Preferred Qualifications

• Associate's or Bachelor's degree, or equal field experience.
• PMP, CSPM, RCDD, CTS, or manufacturer certifications (for example LenelS2, Avigilon, Axis, DMP, Honeywell).
• Low-voltage or security contractor licenses.
• Experience with ServiceNow, CRM, or project financial tools.
• Experience reading blueprints and working with GCs and other trades.
