  • Research and analyze the capabilities of available hardware and software options
  • Design audiovisual systems of various hardware and software components that work together as one integrated system and that meet customer's specific needs
  • Support projects and our team throughout the implementation process.


Requirements to Assure Success:
  • 5+ years of Design Engineering experience is preferred.
  • Prior experience in the service and installation of audio, video and presentation systems
  • Knowledgeable of control systems (Crestron, QSC, Extron, AMX) and DSP platforms (Biamp, QSC, Clearone, BSS)
  • Ability to prepare, understand, and interpret advanced single-line diagrams, architectural, construction, and electrical drawings
  • Knowledge of project financial reports, and the ability to control costs in the design and management of projects is essential
  • Ability to read engineering schematics and communicate design intent
  • CTS and CTS-D certifications are a plus, but not required with the right experience. Any other industry related certs or training are also a plus. (Ex: Crestron, Extron, Biamp, QSC, Shure etc.)
