• Collaborate with Field Deployment Engineers to bring devices online, complete system commissioning checklists, and transition projects from installation to full system operation.

• Perform advanced system testing, including end-to-end functional tests, failover and redundancy tests, and performance tuning to ensure stability and reliability.

• Troubleshoot complex issues escalated from the field using logs, diagnostics, and vendor tools to drive problems to root cause and permanent resolution.

• Configure and support server and network components related to integrated systems (e.g., Windows Server, virtual machines, basic routing and switching, VLANs, firewall rules) within established design guidelines.

• Maintain accurate and current system documentation, including IP addressing schemes, database information, configuration backups, logical diagrams, and as-built records.

• Coordinate with Project Managers on cutovers, migrations, and go-lives, including occasional after-hours work to minimize customer impact.

• Provide training and knowledge transfer to Field Deployment Engineers, Technicians, and customer stakeholders on system operation, workflows, and basic troubleshooting.

• 5+ years of combined experience with low-voltage systems, IT infrastructure, or security system deployment, including at least 3 years focused on configuration, integration, or commissioning.

Skills

• Strong working knowledge of IP networking concepts (TCP/IP, subnets, VLANs, basic routing, DHCP/DNS) and switch configuration.

• Experience configuring and supporting Windows-based servers, virtual machines, and storage for security or enterprise applications.

• Hands‑on experience integrating at least one enterprise security platform (such as video management, access control, or unified security systems).

• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, riser diagrams, and system schematics, and to troubleshoot issues across device, application, server, and network layers.

Certifications / Licenses

• Valid Driver's License and ability to travel regionally to customer sites as needed.
