Deliver clean, reliable systems - independently and professionally. The Senior Pro A/V Systems Technician is a hands-on installation role responsible for executing professional permanent A/V system builds with precision and care. You will install, test, and troubleshoot systems independently or as part of a team, following approved drawings, scope, and direction from the Project Manager or Install / Tech Lead. This role is for a technician who takes pride in craftsmanship, understands system signal flow, and can be trusted to execute work correctly without constant supervision. You are not a people lead. You are not a project manager. You are a skilled, independent contributor.
