Lead Commercial AV & Low-Voltage Technician

Axis Connected Technologies | Fort Myers, FL
Full-Time | $28–$35/hour based on experience

Axis Connected Technologies is looking for an experienced Lead AV / Low-Voltage Technician who wants more than another installer position.

We're looking for someone we can hand a scope, drawings, equipment and a crew and trust to take ownership of the project—from prewire and installation through troubleshooting, punch list and completion.

This is a hands-on field leadership position. You'll work directly with our Director of Technologies and company ownership while helping lead technicians and deliver commercial technology projects throughout Southwest Florida and across the state.

What You'll Work On

Our projects include commercial AV, Q-SYS, UniFi networking, structured cabling, distributed audio, DIRECTV commercial/COM3000, surveillance, access control, fiber and integrated technology systems for country clubs, hospitality, restaurants, multifamily communities and other commercial properties.

No one needs to know every platform we use. Strong fundamentals, leadership, troubleshooting ability and a willingness to learn matter more.

What You'll Be Responsible For

• Lead technicians and installations on active commercial jobsites
• Take projects from prewire through final installation and punch list
• Review scopes, drawings, equipment lists and project requirements
• Install, terminate, test and troubleshoot Cat6/Cat6A, coax, speaker cable and other low-voltage infrastructure
• Build clean, professional equipment racks
• Install TVs, displays, speakers, cameras, network equipment and AV systems
• Install and troubleshoot commercial audio and distributed 70V systems
• Assist with Q-SYS systems and commissioning
• Install and troubleshoot UniFi gateways, switches and wireless access points
• Install and service commercial DIRECTV and COM3000 systems
• Assist with surveillance, access control and fiber systems
• Identify field problems and develop solutions before they become project delays
• Direct technicians and coordinate daily field activities
• Track materials and communicate shortages immediately
• Communicate professionally with GCs, superintendents, customers and other trades
• Maintain clean, organized and professional jobsites
• Provide accurate progress updates and complete punch lists
• Take ownership of company tools, equipment and vehicles

The Person We're Looking For

We're especially interested in technicians coming from commercial AV, low-voltage integration, structured cabling, smart-home integration, networking, security or field-service leadership.

Experience with platforms such as Q-SYS/QSC, UniFi/Ubiquiti, Control4, Crestron, Lutron, URC, ELAN, commercial audio, surveillance or access control is valuable.

More importantly, we're looking for someone who:

• Has strong low-voltage fundamentals
• Can troubleshoot instead of simply replacing equipment
• Can lead and develop other technicians
• Takes pride in clean installations and clean jobsites
• Communicates when there's a problem instead of disappearing
• Can interact professionally with customers and contractors
• Shows up when they say they will
• Takes responsibility for the finished product
• Wants an opportunity to grow as the company grows

Requirements

Prior professional AV or low-voltage field experience is required. Lead-technician, foreman or field-supervisor experience is strongly preferred.

You must have a valid driver's license, reliable transportation, the ability to work from ladders and lift/install AV equipment, and be comfortable working in active construction environments, equipment rooms and occasional outdoor/attic conditions.

Some Florida travel is required.

Compensation & Opportunity

$28–$35/hour depending on experience, technical capability and leadership background.
