Job description

Solutions Engineer, Commercial AV/Lighting
ZIO
Winter Park, FL 32789
Calling all experienced Engineering candidates looking to make a move! ZIO is looking for a Commercial Solutions Engineer.
Do you like working with clients to design installed technology solutions that meet their needs?
Do you have an attention to detail to ensure that your design will work?
Do you have a passion for Audio, Video and Control technology and keeping up with the latest trends?
Do you take satisfaction in doing things ‘the right way’ the first time?
If you answered Yes to these questions and you are looking for opportunities to join an industry leading company, ZIO is what you are looking for.
Smart Technology – Simplified! This describes ZIO and the building technologies we deliver. To accomplish this, we all work as a team and everyone is dedicated to quality of the highest level. Every project must be better than the one before and “Good Enough” doesn’t exist. We haven’t won all our awards by allowing mediocrity. However, ZIO recognizes that with this intensity there must also be a balance. We ask that everyone focus on a healthy Life-Work balance; that is, they should put their life before their work.
We’re looking for a Commercial Solutions Engineer professional that will be responsible for producing all proposals and overseeing all technical design. This process starts by working with a ZIO relationship manager to perform a full needs analysis for the client’s project and then a conceptual design that has a scope and budget or final proposal. The position requires active participation in client meetings with the relationship manager, and internal meetings with various people on the engineering team to fully evaluate and develop the needs of the client for the project. Once a project is accepted the engineer will usually work in conjunction with the project engineering team to create all technical drawings and other documentation necessary to fully execute the design to ZIO's standards.
With your application, please include a cover letter telling us WHY you think your skills and experience are a fit for this position.
Required Skills and Experience:
  • Ability to excel in a fast-paced work environment
  • Ability to manage multiple project opportunities, deliverables and deadlines
  • Demonstrated knowledge of installed A/V technology
  • Demonstrated knowledge of conducting needs analysis, understanding and developing budgets, determining and clarifying the scope of a project, and designing error-free solutions

Preferred Skills and Experience:

  • College-Level Degree in Engineering, Technology, IT, or similar field of study
  • At least 1 year experience in systems integration in AV amp; control design
  • Relevant audio/video control system experience such as CTS, CTS-D, CTS-I, Crestron, Extron, Q-Sys, Control4, and Biamp

ZIO believes that the key to keeping great talent is treating them well. We realize it isn’t all about the money. Some of the benefits we offer:

  • Paid Training amp; Semi-annual individual development planning
  • Retirement Matching
  • Health amp; Dental Insurance
  • Paid Holidays amp; Time Off
  • Company events such as go-kart racing, bowling, beer tasting on a quarterly basis
  • Profit sharing
If you believe your work is a personal reflection of yourself, strive for success in everything you do, and you have a passion for constant learning, then you should apply now. ZIO is going places and we need great people like you to get there.
How to Apply amp; What Happens Next:
We receive a significant amount of applications and we're a small team. That means you need to stand out to actually get reviewed by the hiring manager (who does not see every application!) Please follow these steps carefully or your application likely won't get to a hiring manager!
Step 1: Write a brief cover letter and answer the following questions.
1. In your own words, what's the most important part of designing a successful AV or lighting solution for a high-end commercial client?
2. Walk us through a time you developed a conceptual design and proposal for a client. How did you determine scope and budget, and how was it received?
3. This role requires translating complex technical requirements into clear communication for clients and our sales/project teams. How do you ensure everyone stays aligned throughout the process?
4. Tell us about a time you introduced a new technology or design approach into a proposal. How did you evaluate it, and how did it impact the final solution?
5. We value accountability, resilience, and proactivity. Pick one of these values and share a story that shows how you've demonstrated it in a leadership or operations role?
Step 2: Apply with a combined document including your cover letter, answers to the above questions amp; your resume.
Step 3: Use this link to complete the predictive index assessment: https://assessment.predictiveindex.com/bo/6M3D/ZIOSolutionsEngineerAVLighting171649
Step 4: If you're successful in demonstrating you have what it takes for this role, you’ll go through a structured interview process—including video meetings, and on-site interviews.
