Responsibilities

  • Provide white-glove AV support for executive requests and high-visibility meetings (All Hands, leadership meetings, product announcements) in the East Coast region.
  • Deploy as a core installer on medium and large office buildout projects: rack fabrication, cable termination, device mounting, and final hookup and testing of AV systems, working directly alongside the build lead.
  • Contribute to comprehensive project documentation during builds (as-builts, room records, and configuration notes) so every system is fully captured before handoff to operations.
  • Assist with system commissioning, preventive maintenance, and upgrades of AV hardware across the deployed fleet, with growing ownership of East Coast systems support as the office footprint expands.

Requirements

  • 4+ years of corporate Audio Visual experience, with significant hands-on installation work.
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently as a sole regional resource, with self-directed prioritization, clear escalation judgment, and reliable follow-through.

  • Q-SYS experience (design, configuration, or commissioning) is a strong plus.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills with the polish and discretion to support executives, and the ability to interface with clients, technicians, and contractors.
  • Willingness to travel to domestic and international locations for office buildout projects, plus occasional shorter trips to East Coast regional offices. Expect roughly 30-40% travel overall, concentrated around project build windows.
  • Must be flexible with shift hours and timing, including early-morning sweeps and occasional after-hours event support.
