Engineering$45–$50/hrFull-time

We offer complete building controls and engineering solutions, including precision design, software programming, graphics, and commissioning. Combining leading-edge technology, open-protocol solutions, and customized service, we help clients improve building management for greater efficiency, comfort, and security.

About the role

We are searching for a high-level Low Voltage Installation Manager to lead our installation department. This role is the backbone of our field operations, requiring a leader who can manage and grow a full team of Installation Leads and Specialists. We are looking for a "working manager" who is equally comfortable in a high-level coordination meeting as they are on a ladder demonstrating a complex termination to a junior team member. You will be the primary architect of our manpower scheduling, ensuring the right people are on the right sites at the right time, while maintaining a heavy focus on the technical training and onboarding of new personnel.

Responsibilities

  • Manpower Coordination And Deployment
    • Directly manage the installation schedule, ensuring manpower is strategically allocated to project sites exactly when needed to meet construction milestones.
    • Monitor project labor budgets and adjust staffing levels to maintain peak efficiency across the Wasatch Front and throughout Utah.
    • Act as the primary point of contact for field labor availability, resolving scheduling conflicts and ensuring 100% site coverage.
  • Active Field Leadership And Execution
    • Be prepared to "strap on the tool belt" and perform physical installation tasks—including conduit bending, wiring, and terminations—to demonstrate best practices and high-quality standards to trainees.
    • Step in to perform direct installation work when necessary to ensure critical project milestones are met or to overcome complex technical hurdles on-site.
    • Use "on-the-tools" sessions as a primary training method, providing real-time feedback and correction to Installation Specialists in the field.
  • Project Coordination And Integration
    • Support Project Managers in high-level project coordination, ensuring installation requirements are integrated into the overall project plan.
    • Facilitate clear communication between the installation team, general contractors, and other trades regarding device placement, site readiness, and system functionality.
    • Participate in project hand-off meetings to reconcile contract documents and RFIs, ensuring the field team is fully prepared for the approved scope of work.
  • Quality Control And Technical Oversight
    • Establish and enforce rigorous standards for low voltage infrastructure, including conduit bending, wiring, and sensor installation.
    • Conduct regular site visits to audit workmanship, ensure code compliance, and provide "on-the-tools" mentorship to junior staff.
    • Serve as the final technical escalation point for complex installation or site-specific challenges.

Requirements

  • Physical Requirements
    • Physical Execution: Must be willing and able to perform the full range of installation tasks on active construction sites to support the team during peak demand or training cycles.
    • Routine Lifting: Ability to routinely lift and carry objects weighing less than 20 pounds and occasionally carrying up to 50 pounds.
    • Working from Heights: This position will require working from ladders, scaffolding, and lifts.
  • Experience: Minimum 7–10 years of experience specifically within Building Automation Systems (BAS). Must have a mastery of Direct Digital Control (DDC) network architecture.
  • Skills: Extensive experience in the mounting and wiring of diverse field control devices. Must maintain high-level proficiency in field skills (conduit, wiring, and panel work) and have the willingness to perform these tasks alongside the team when required.
  • Logistics Skills: Proven ability to manage complex labor schedules and manpower allocation for multiple concurrent projects.
  • Mentorship: A passion for teaching and a track record of successfully training and developing junior technicians.
  • License: Valid driver’s license with a clean driving record.
  • Travel: Project sites are largely concentrated within 1 ½ hour drive from Salt Lake City. Some sites require a willingness to travel throughout the state of Utah.

Benefits

  • Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, and vision coverage, along with health savings and flexible spending accounts.
  • Life insurance and disability coverage.
  • 401(k) Savings Plan.
  • College Coach and employee assistance program.
  • Company vehicle provided for business travel.

Pay

Compensation Range: $45.00 to $50.00/hour depending on experience.
