Direct Entry Pilot Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Strategies to Empower People is hiring a weekend staff for our Technology Pilot Program!
Our agency provides support services to adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities and thanks to our new Technology Pilot Program we are implementing assistive technology and remote monitoring to help our clients get the support they need while minimizing in-person staffing. This program will help our clients reach a new level of independence!
This is a pilot program -- its continued success depends on finding qualified and compassionate staff to support the disabled adults we serve!
WHAT IS THE JOB?
The Technology Pilot Program staff, or Technology Comprehensive Support Professional, provides support to the disabled adults we serve via audio/video monitoring and remote access. The Technology Pilot Program staff monitors multiple alerting systems in real-time to assess needs, respond to safety concerns, and provide remote training & assistance for the people we support. This position is also responsible for documenting all activity & alerts so consistency and accuracy are very important!
The Technology Pilot Program Staff is also responsible for assessing the need for emergency response, communicating with emergency services as needed, and communicating and dispatching field personnel when the need arises.
SCHEDULE
We are hiring for a weekend schedule:

• Saturday 9a-9p + Sunday 9a-9p (24-hour schedule with 8 hours of overtime built into it)

The rate of pay for this position ranges from $24-$25 per hour.
LOCATION
This position operates out of our Roseville office, located at 730 Sunrise Ave STE 200.
This position can require fieldwork as well, including visits to client homes for assessment/installation purposes as well as off-site training.
JOB REQUIREMENTS
Candidates for this position must have more than basic experience with technology systems - this includes hardware/software installation and troubleshooting, remote access systems, audio and video setup and monitoring, and database access & entry. Prior experience in the IT field or computer field/home installation field is a plus!
This position isn't just interacting with technology, it's also working with the people we support. This position requires a minimum of 2 years of direct support experience with the I/DD community, complex medical/behavioral needs, or persistent mental health needs. Experience in dispatch, observation and reporting, and crisis triage will also be considered.
Maintaining this position is contingent upon the successful completion of a required 8-hour technology training course. At the completion of the course the Technology Pilot Program Staff will be required to test and pass an examination. If the Technology Pilot Program Staff fails to pass the examination they will not be able to remain in their position.
This position also requires driving, so having a current driver license, auto insurance, reliable vehicle, and clean driving record (no DUIs in past 10 years, no excessive points, etc.) is required as well.
