  • Troubleshoot, test, and modify electronic circuits, wiring, and components.
  • Assist with the prototyping, construction, and testing of new exhibit technologies.
  • Support installation and de-installation of traveling/ special exhibitions, including electrical and technical systems setup.
  • Mentors Exhibit Electronics technician staff during exhibit maintenance, repairs, and operations.
  • Assist in planning exhibit lifecycles with an emphasis on energy efficiency, durability, and ease of maintenance.

Requirements
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
  • Minimum of 3-5 years of experience designing and implementing A/V systems in museums, science centers, themed environments, exhibitions, or similar settings.
  • Technical degree or equivalent professional experience in lighting design, theatrical production, electrical engineering, exhibit design, or a related field.
  • Experience with lighting control protocols and/or networked lighting systems.
  • Ability to read and produce technical drawings, wiring diagrams, and specifications.
  • Strong troubleshooting skills and comfort working hands-on with tools and electronic components.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
  • Experience working in a nonprofit museum or science center environment.
  • Familiarity with microcontrollers, show control, or interactive exhibit systems. Knowledge of museum conservation lighting standards.
