Elevator Mechanic (Consultant)

What You'll Do

• Execute installations within scheduled access windows coordinated by the operations team, using proper lockout/tagout procedures to stop the elevator safely, ensuring all work is completed on time and elevator service is fully restored upon completion
• Install digital screens inside elevator cabs and lobbies using mounting methods that are fully non-invasive — the only interface with the elevator is a single power connection; no modifications to mechanical, electrical control, or safety systems of any kind
• Ensure all installations comply with ASME A17.1 cab interior requirements and NYC DOB standards, with zero impact on elevator certification or inspection status
• Assess each elevator cab prior to installation to confirm that screen placement, cable management, and mounting hardware meet code requirements and will not trigger re-inspection obligations
• Routinely route and manage power connections cleanly and professionally, maintaining full separation from elevator control and operational wiring
• Work with building staff to coordinate access as needed; familiarity with building protocols and elevator maintenance vendors is a plus
• Troubleshoot screen hardware, power connections, and content delivery systems post-installation
• Maintain detailed installation records for each property, including photos, cab dimensions, mounting specifications, and completion documentation
