USI Technologies

Director of Technology

The Director of Technology — Integrated Security Solutions will lead USI's Technology Division, owning the strategy, growth, and operational execution of our integrated security systems business. This is a builder's role: you will scale a division that combines in-house technical talent with an exclusive subcontractor network, manage multi-phase enterprise projects, maintain multi-state licensing compliance, and partner with sales leadership to grow a pipeline of access control, VMS, intercom, fiber, and converged physical/cyber opportunities. The Director will serve as the senior technical authority for the division and the primary point of accountability for project delivery, margin performance, and team development.
