Are you passionate about live broadcast technology and ready to take ownership of high-stakes system reliability? Join Advanced Systems Group as a Live Broadcast Systems Engineer and play a key role in supporting a world-class media facility's mission-critical operations, working in close partnership with an experienced operations team to keep systems healthy, resilient, and ready for anything live production demands.

Our client operates a newly built, world-class broadcast and radio facility that supports both live radio production and broadcast-level video production under one roof. The facility includes four radio studios, two large and two small, alongside a dedicated sound stage supporting live video productions. Built and structured as a true broadcast facility, the environment runs on a modern IP media infrastructure alongside traditional baseband systems, supporting high visibility, always-on live productions.

This is a full time, permanent, on site opportunity based in Culver City, CA.

What We Are Looking For

• A senior level or EIC level engineer with a track record of owning and operating a built, permanent broadcast facility

• A well rounded, jack of all trades broadcast engineer who is comfortable across both audio and video systems

• A true partner to the operations team, someone who takes pride in keeping high-visibility live productions running smoothly behind the scenes

• A collaborative engineer who brings ideas and improvements to the table and enjoys building trust with the teams they support

• Someone who thrives on ownership and autonomy, comfortable spotting risk early and getting ahead of problems before they impact a live show

What You Will Do

• Provide on-site support based in Culver City, CA, with regular travel to a nearby secondary site in Marina del Rey, approximately 15 minutes away. Travel beyond these two locations is rare

• Serve as a senior escalation point for complex technical issues that go beyond standard operational troubleshooting, working in close coordination with an existing operations team that handles day to day tier 1 and tier 2 issues

• Lead preventative maintenance and forward looking risk identification across the facility's broadcast and streaming systems, both audio and video, keeping equipment at optimal health and readiness

• Conduct in depth investigations on issues that require sustained effort, including extended engagements with manufacturers, testing, and RMA processes

• Develop and manage configuration backups and equipment baselines for critical systems

• Schedule and execute preventative maintenance around a dynamic live broadcast calendar

• Document and maintain detailed service histories, run books, and a standing maintenance calendar

• Ensure organized, clean, and efficient machine room infrastructure and cabling

• Troubleshoot and perform service restoration for SDI, IP media including ST 2110, Dante, AES67, and MADI, and supporting infrastructure

• Apply rigorous, systematic testing to isolate problems from application through physical layer

• Own case resolution with manufacturers, driving issues through to successful outcomes and managing vendor relationships

• Produce clear incident reports and documentation, empowering operational teams to resolve or avoid common issues

• Identify patterns and develop remediation projects to increase reliability and reduce recurring issues

• Scope and support integration and remediation projects, working alongside client engineers and system integrators

• Coordinate with specialized teams, such as network engineering, on issues outside this role's direct scope

Required Qualifications

• Prior experience in an Engineer in Charge role, or a similar senior engineering role, within a built, permanent broadcast facility environment

• Comprehensive technical proficiency across a live broadcast technology stack, including SDI, SMPTE ST 2110, Dante, AES67, MADI, PTP timing, NMOS control, camera robotics, broadcast cameras, LED walls, and video switchers. Familiarity with AVB is a plus. No single candidate is expected to be expert in every protocol, but must be confident enough to diagnose issues and drive them to resolution

• Deep broadcast engineering experience across both audio and video systems, with demonstrated ability to troubleshoot complex live systems from application layer through physical layer

• Strong, repeatable testing and fault isolation methodology

• Proven live environment discipline, with a clear understanding of coordinated downtime and on air safety

• Ability to influence without direct authority, comfortable recommending process improvements within the defined scope of this role

• Skilled at managing competing maintenance priorities in a live production environment without ever compromising operational safety

• Strong technical writing and documentation skills, able to produce incident reports, MOPs, run books, and user facing guides

• Strong communication skills with peer operational staff and with manufacturers during case resolution

• Organized and accountable in managing vendor relationships, open cases, maintenance windows, and asset condition records

• Comfortable operating within a highly matrixed environment where multiple teams contribute to a single production

• Valid driver's license and personal vehicle, ability to travel locally between Culver City and Marina del Rey

Preferred Qualifications

• Ability to perform in situ Layer 1 repairs for common cable types, including CAT 6A, 12G SDI, single pair audio, and similar, without calling out to an integrator

• Experience scoping integration and remediation projects for management approval

• Experience with Providius and Bridge Technologies monitoring tools

• Working knowledge of Lawo Power Core and UHD Core DSP configuration, operation, and troubleshooting

Position Details

• Regular Full Time

• On site at Culver City, CA

• On call and after hours availability required as needed

• Must be able to commute to work on site. Valid driver's license and personal vehicle required
