What are Gotcha jobs?

The term 'Gotcha' is not commonly recognized as a standard job title. It may refer to roles involved in surprise audits, compliance checks, or investigative work designed to catch mistakes or misconduct, often in journalism or quality assurance. However, without more context, it's unclear what specific duties or industries are associated with a 'Gotcha' job. If you are referring to a particular company, game, or brand named 'Gotcha,' the responsibilities may vary widely. For precise information, it's best to consult the organization or context where the term is used.

Job description

About Gotcha Security

Gotcha Security is a growing commercial security integrator specializing in surveillance cameras/CCTV, access control, gate access, intrusion alarms, and fire alarms. We work with commercial properties and new construction clients across the Atlanta metro area and beyond — and we're building a team of career-minded technicians who take pride in their craft.

This isn't a revolving-door opportunity. We invest in our people for the long haul, and we're looking for someone who wants to grow with us.

About This Role

This is a field-based position covering the Atlanta metro area and surrounding markets. You will dispatch directly from home to your first site each day — no office commute required.


What You'll Do
  • Program and configure security equipment including burglar alarm panels, fire alarm panels, NVRs/DVRs, IP cameras, servers, networking equipment, and access control hardware
  • Troubleshoot and service surveillance cameras, fire alarm devices, smoke detectors, card readers, electronic door locks, control panels, and gate operators
  • Test all serviced equipment to ensure it meets customer requirements and Gotcha's quality standards
  • Train clients on proper system operation following service visits
  • Update service tickets in real time before moving to the next site
  • Cross-train junior technicians and help establish and document service procedures
  • Lead installation teams when needed and work independently between sites
  • Collaborate with the Service Coordinator and Technology Manager
  • Travel throughout the Atlanta metro area and surrounding regions for service calls


RequirementsWhat We're Looking For

Required:

  • Minimum 5 years of commercial security experience, including cameras, access control, or alarms
  • Hands-on experience with IP camera systems, network configuration, and DVR/NVR programming — this is a must
  • Minimum 3 years of intrusion alarm experience
  • Minimum 3 years of low voltage experience (electronic and mechanical)
  • Valid driver's license with a clean 3-year driving record
  • Ability to work Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM–6:00 PM (typical 8-hour days; start/stop times may vary by project)
  • Comfortable working in varying field conditions: heat, cold, confined spaces, heights, dust, and crawl spaces
  • Strong communication skills — you'll manage your own schedule and keep management updated on ticket progress
  • Honest, professional, team-first mindset

Nice to Have:

  • Low voltage or alarm industry certifications (ESA, NICET, etc.)
  • Experience with gate operators or fire alarm panel programming
  • Prior experience mentoring or training technicians


Benefits



What You'll Get
  • $25–$35/hr based on experience
  • Company van provided (dispatch directly from home to your first site each day — no office commute)
  • Company credit card for all job-related purchases
  • 2 weeks PTO + paid holidays
  • Continuing education — we support your growth and certifications
  • Long-term, stable employment with a growing company
  • Full-time position

All benefits subject to company policy.
