SECURITY & TECHNOLOGY INSTALL TECHNICIAN
Technology Gateway Inc. | Full-time | Chicagoland (based in Oak Lawn, IL)
WHO WE ARE
We make technology work for people — and we stand behind it. Technology Gateway has protected Chicagoland homes and businesses since 2006, with over 4,000 installs across security cameras, alarms, access control, POS, A/V, and networking. We're growing, and we hire people who want to grow with us.
THE ROLE
You'll install the systems that protect our customers — security cameras, alarms, access control, POS, A/V, and networking — at homes and businesses across Chicagoland. This is hands-on field work: mounting equipment, running and terminating cable, configuring systems, and making sure everything works before you leave.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Install and mount equipment: cameras, alarm panels, access control, and related devices
- Run and terminate cable cleanly and to code
- Configure and test systems; confirm everything works before you leave
- Document the job with photos and clear notes
- Keep the work site clean and professional
- Communicate with the office and the customer
WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
We're open to either an experienced install tech or a motivated helper who wants to grow — attitude matters most. You'll do well if you are:
- Good with your hands and tools, mechanically inclined, and a quick learner
- Reliable and on time — customers and crews count on you
- Comfortable with physical work: ladders, lifts, lifting, and time on your feet
- Detail-oriented and tidy in your work
- Respectful of customers' homes and businesses
REQUIREMENTS
- Illinois PERC card required, or the ability to obtain one promptly (we'll help guide you through it)
- Valid driver's license and reliable transportation; clean driving record for company vehicle use
- Able to lift approximately 50 lbs and work on ladders/lifts
WHERE THIS GOES
Many of our techs start as installers and grow into lead technicians running their own jobs and crews. We promote from within for people who own their work.
