• Support the deployment, commissioning, and upgrade of technical security systems across sites.
• Coordinate with vendors and integrators on installations, service calls, warranty issues, and system upgrades.
• Assist in managing small‑to‑medium technical security projects, including scheduling, tracking tasks, and reporting status to stakeholders.
• Perform preventative maintenance and health checks to ensure system uptime and reliability.
• Configure and troubleshoot networking components supporting security systems (IP addressing, VLANs, switches, PoE, basic firewall/port configuration – in collaboration with Network Engineering teams).
• Create and maintain technical documentation, as‑builts, wiring diagrams, and standard operating procedures.
• Maintain accurate device inventory and hardware/spares stock for supported sites.
• Communicate clearly with internal stakeholders, providing updates on project progress, system issues, and resolutions.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years of hands‑on experience installing, configuring, and troubleshooting physical access control and/or video surveillance systems.

• Ability to read and interpret wiring diagrams, floor plans, and technical documentation.
• Experience working with vendors and integrators on installations and service.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to update stakeholders on technical work and project status.
• Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and a proactive problem‑solving mindset.
• Familiarity with low‑voltage cabling standards and structured cabling best practices.

Preferred Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in technical security systems, with a strong focus on access control, and intrusion detection.
• Experience supporting technical security systems across multiple or global sites.
