Access Control & Security Technician

The Access Control & Security Camera Technician is responsible for installing commercial access control, video surveillance, and related low-voltage security systems as part of the AC&S Projects Team. This is primarily a project-installation role. The technician will run and terminate cabling, mount and wire devices, connect panels and power supplies, assist with system configuration, test completed work, and document the final installation. The successful candidate must be dependable, safety-conscious, detail-oriented, and committed to professional workmanship. Installation is not considered complete until the work has been tested, deficiencies have been addressed or clearly documented, and the Project Manager or field lead has received an accurate status update. The technician works closely with Project Managers, field leads, engineers, programmers, subcontractors, vendors, clients, and other trades to complete projects safely, efficiently, and in accordance with the approved scope of work. A successful person in this role: · Completes assigned installation work safely, accurately, and according to project drawings, manufacturer requirements, and company standards. · Produces clean, professional workmanship, including properly supported and labeled cable, orderly panel wiring, secure device mounting, and neat finished installations. · Tests and validates installed systems rather than assuming the work is complete once equipment is mounted or wired. · Identifies missing materials, site-readiness issues, scope conflicts, and technical risks early enough for the project team to respond. · Maintains ownership of assigned work through installation, testing, documentation, correction of deficiencies, and final completion. · Communicates progress, remaining work, blockers, and support needs clearly and promptly.
