Associate Principal, Broadcast Systems

PMY is a full-service provider of technology, data, and creative solutions for the live environment. With a growing global footprint across APAC, the USA, and EMEA, we deliver tailored, impactful solutions across sectors such as Sport & Entertainment, Stadiums & Arenas, Public Sector & Education, and Retail & Media. We combine a global perspective with decades of experience and deep local insight in key markets. Our goal is to deliver cutting-edge strategy, design, and operational services across the full technology ecosystem — powered by proprietary and bespoke intelligence solutions and activated by a passionate and experienced team.

About the role

PMY is seeking an Associate Principal to serve as Discipline Lead for Broadcast Systems, responsible for the full breadth of the practice: broadcast cabling infrastructure, sports video production systems, and LED/scoreboard display design across educational, sports, and entertainment facilities, including stadiums, arenas, and other large-format venues. This is a senior technical leadership role for an individual who will carry final responsibility for the quality, consistency, and delivery of broadcast discipline work product across all assigned projects, while also managing the discipline itself: its standards, methodology, staffing, training, and operations.

You will represent PMY at a high level with clients, architects, and outside parties on broadcast matters, lead the assignment of work and resource allocation across the broadcast cabling, video production, and LED/scoreboard groups, and act as the final point of accountability for the discipline's delivery philosophy and work product. As an independent consultant, PMY is not aligned with any specific manufacturer. Designers under your leadership will objectively evaluate available technologies and recommend solutions based on performance, league and venue requirements, reliability, maintainability, budget, and project needs.

Responsibilities

Discipline Leadership

• Own the Broadcast Systems discipline end-to-end (broadcast cabling, video production, and LED/scoreboard) as the person ultimately accountable for standards and project delivery.
• Staff projects by assigning the right people from across the three specialty groups.
• Set the standards, methodology, and training the discipline works from, and keep them current.
• Set discipline-wide standards for confirming league requirements, including camera angles and platforms, and for coordinating AC power for TV trucks, broadcast booths, camera platforms, league racks, and common carriers.
• Handle hiring needs and day-to-day operations for the broadcast team.
• Sign off as the final word on broadcast work product before it goes out the door.
• Recruit, mentor, and evaluate staff across the discipline, from Designer up through Senior Consultant.
• Keep leadership informed on how the discipline is performing: utilization, quality, growth.

Project & Client Responsibilities

• Take the lead on the firm's most complex broadcast projects, across cabling, video production, and LED/scoreboard alike.
• Be the face of PMY's broadcast systems practice with clients, architects, and outside parties at a senior level.
• Act as Project Executive when assigned.
• Run client meetings, design reviews, and coordination workshops on the toughest jobs.
• Give final sign-off on system architecture across cabling, camera systems, control rooms, national TV, in-house video, radio, and replay systems, video networking, and LED/scoreboard design.
• Review and approve the drawings, specs, and bid documents the broadcast team produces.
• Make the final call on submittals, RFIs, and value-engineering proposals that touch broadcast scope.
• Get involved in commissioning and site issues when something needs a senior set of eyes.
• Drive business development for the discipline: proposals, pursuits, fee strategy.

Requirements

• 12+ years of experience across broadcast cabling, sports video production, and LED/scoreboard design, with demonstrated breadth and technical depth across all three areas.
• Proven experience leading and developing technical teams, with the ability to provide direction, mentorship, and technical oversight.
• Strong understanding of broadcast cabling, video production, and LED/scoreboard systems sufficient to serve as the final technical reviewer for project work.
• Thorough knowledge of CSI documentation standards and the architectural project lifecycle.
• Strong understanding of construction sequencing and contractor/integrator coordination, with the ability to identify and resolve potential issues before they impact a project.
• Proficiency with Revit, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Excel.
• Familiarity with current video and broadcast networking protocols, including SMPTE 2110, NDI, and IP video.
• Strong written, verbal, presentation, and client-management skills, with demonstrated ability to represent the firm at a senior level.
• Ability to manage multiple complex assignments and lead a technical team simultaneously, with willingness and ability to travel as project and discipline needs require.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in broadcast engineering, media technology, electrical engineering, or a related discipline, or equivalent professional experience preferred.
• Proficiency with Bluebeam Revu and Procore preferred.
• Experience with BIM-based design coordination workflows preferred.
• Experience working on professional or major collegiate sports facilities preferred.
• Experience designing and delivering broadcast systems for sports presentation, concerts, touring productions, ceremonies, and multipurpose venue configurations preferred.
• Experience coordinating broadcast and video systems with scoreboards, video displays, sound systems, and event presentation technologies preferred.
• Prior experience building, developing, or scaling a technical practice or discipline within a design or consulting firm preferred.

Benefits

• Growth: Scale your career with diverse projects and continuous learning.
• Flexibility: Embrace a work-life balance with flexible hours and remote work opportunities.
• Impact: Your work directly transforms the venue experience for millions.
• Culture: Collaborate with a passionate team in a dynamic, innovative environment.
