Client Support & System Delivery

• Support development of system documentation including user guides and operation manuals.
• Ensure a smooth transition from project delivery to service and support teams.

Quality Assurance & Standards

• Ensure all deliverables meet DBE Systems standards and industry best practices.
• Maintain high accuracy in drawings and documentation (low error rate expectations).
• Contribute to continuous improvement of engineering templates, standards, and workflows.

Technology Development

• Develop working knowledge of AV systems, signal flow, and integration best practices.
• Build foundational understanding of IT/network concepts including VLANs, IP addressing, QoS, and AV-over-IP.
• Stay current on leading AV manufacturers (Crestron, Extron, Biamp, Q-SYS, etc.) and collaboration platforms (Microsoft, Zoom, Webex).
