Job description

A/V Technician

Onsite: South Jordan, UT


Our client, a nonprofit healthcare foundation, is looking for an A/V Technician to join their Video department in South Jordan, UT.

Do you thrive under the pressure of a live show, keeping your cool no matter what glitch pops up mid-session? Do you get a kick out of making sure the sound is crisp, the slides are synced, and the room runs like clockwork? If you're nodding along, this A/V Technician role might be exactly what you're looking for. Keep scrolling to see what this company has to offer.


The Perks!

  • Compensation: $23 - $27/hourly, based on experience
  • 401k
  • Full Health, Dental, and Vision Coverage
  • Unlimited Paid Time Off


A Day in the Life of the A/V Technician

In this role, you'll be the hands-on backbone of our client's live event program and in-house video production, supporting patient-facing conferences that bring critical health education to the people who need it most. One day you might be running live sound and switching video for a 150-person Roundtable conference, the next you could be behind a camera on a studio shoot or coordinating physician interviews at a major medical conference. Your work directly supports the organization's mission of connecting patients with the education and resources that improve their care.


Responsibilities include:

  • Setting up, operating, and striking audio and video systems for live conferences (100–200 attendees, dual-projector setups, 4–6 speakers)
  • Running live sound (wireless mics, lavs, mixers) and managing playback/switching during sessions
  • Troubleshooting A/V issues in real time with minimal disruption to the audience
  • Coordinating with venue A/V staff, event coordinators, and speakers on setup and technical requirements
  • Recording sessions for later editing and distribution
  • Assisting with camera operation, lighting, and audio recording for studio and on-location shoots
  • Supporting basic editing, file management, and media organization between events
  • Maintaining, transporting, and inventorying A/V equipment
  • Reaching out to physicians and clinical experts to schedule on-site interviews at major medical conferences
  • Managing interview logistics, including scheduling, room/equipment needs, and day-of coordination
  • Supporting HealthTree University coordination, including scheduling filming sessions and communicating with speakers and stakeholders
  • Serving as a clear, professional point of contact for physicians, speakers, and partners


Requirements and Qualifications:

  • 2+ years of experience in live event A/V production (conferences, corporate events, or similar), plus general video production experience
  • Working knowledge of audio mixing (wireless mic systems, mixers, gain staging) and multi-source video switching/projection
  • Comfort troubleshooting on the fly during live sessions with an audience present
  • Familiarity with camera operation, basic lighting setups, and standard video/audio recording workflows
  • Strong coordination and outreach skills, including comfort reaching out to physicians and other high-profile interview subjects
  • Strong organizational skills to manage equipment, cabling, and setup/strike logistics independently
  • A calm, solutions-oriented approach under time pressure
  • Associate's degree or technical certification in A/V, broadcast technology, or a related field, or equivalent experience
  • Ability to stand, kneel, and move for extended periods during setup and strike, and lift/carry up to 60 pounds
  • Willingness to travel 6–8 times per year for events, with occasional evenings or weekends around conference schedules


About the Hiring Company:

Our client is a nonprofit foundation dedicated to empowering patients with rare and serious diseases at every step of their journey, from diagnosis through treatment and beyond. Through education, community, and research programs, they connect patients directly with the tools and specialists that improve outcomes. Their live conferences and educational content play a key role in bringing that mission to life.
