About the Role

Do you enjoy working with your hands, solving problems, and bringing technical systems to life? We’re looking for a detail‑oriented, safety‑minded Installer to support the installation of low‑voltage cabling and communication systems across a variety of commercial construction projects. In this role, you’ll assist in the layout, pulling, termination, and testing of structured cabling systems—including fiber, copper, AV, and access control technologies. Whether you're reading blueprints, labeling cables, or installing equipment racks, you'll play a key role in helping our teams deliver quality installations that power today’s connected spaces.

Responsibilities

  • Assist with pulling, dressing, terminating, and labeling Coax, UTP, DAS, AV, Access Control, Intrusion Detection, and Fiber cabling.
  • Help install racks, cabinets, cable supports, and fire‑stopping materials according to specifications and safety code.
  • Assist with mounting and basic setup of electronic equipment such as switches, cameras, and UPS units.
  • Provide required hand tools and demonstrate proper usage for assigned tasks.
  • Learn to terminate copper connectors and support testing procedures under supervision.
  • Understand blueprints, schematics, and installation instructions under the guidance of Leads or Project Managers.
  • Promote and model proper safety procedures, PPE usage, and site cleanliness.
  • Share daily updates with Project Leads and follow through on assigned responsibilities.
  • Develop knowledge of bonding, grounding, and fire‑stopping by working with your Lead.
  • Maintain a clean and professional work environment while managing tools and materials efficiently.
  • Be open to job‑site changes, short travel assignments, and varied schedules as needed.

Requirements

  • High School Diploma or GED (or equivalent experience).
  • Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation.
  • Ability to read basic diagrams and follow structured work instructions.
  • Hands‑on experience: background in commercial construction or entry‑level work in cabling or low‑voltage systems preferred.
  • Willingness to learn and grow technical knowledge through on‑the‑job training.
  • Dependability: strong work ethic, punctuality, and ability to follow instructions consistently.
  • Technical aptitude: comfort working with hand tools, cable types, and installation processes.

Benefits

  • Career path: entry point into low‑voltage and telecommunications with room to advance to Lead or Technician roles.
  • Training & mentorship: on‑the‑job training from experienced professionals and opportunities to earn certifications.
  • Supportive, safety‑first team environment where your growth matters.
  • Competitive compensation with opportunities to expand skills and responsibilities over time.
  • Pride in work: contribute to projects that integrate buildings and technology.

Work Environment

This is an active, physical role. You’ll be on your feet for most of the day, climbing, lifting up to 50 lb, and occasionally working in tight spaces. Work takes place in both indoor and outdoor job sites, and some travel or after‑hours work may be requested based on project needs. Reasonable accommodations are available for individuals with disabilities.
