Full Job Description

About the Role
Are you passionate about making environments safer, smarter, and more connected? We’re looking for a skilled and client-focused Security Field Engineer to join our growing team, supporting small and medium business enterprises (SMBEs) across the VA and MD region. In this role, you’ll be the hands-on expert installing, programming, troubleshooting, and maintaining state-of-the-art security systems—from cloud-connected CCTV to access control platforms.

Whether you’re solving on-site issues, programming integrated systems, or guiding clients through upgrades, your work will keep operations secure and relationships strong.

What You’ll Do – Solve, Serve, and Secure

Diagnose and repair issues with CCTV systems, NVRs/DVRs, and access control hardware.
Resolve problems with electric strikes, mag locks, relays, readers, and door hardware.
Test and troubleshoot system configurations, wiring, and power supply integrity.
Minimize downtime by replacing faulty components and updating firmware efficiently.
Ensure full compliance with safety and operational protocols.
Configure access control and surveillance systems from Avigilon, Motorola, Paxton, and OpenPath.
Set user permissions, mobile credentials, and integrate cloud-based platforms.
Fine-tune video analytics, alerts, and access logic to meet site-specific requirements.
Integrate security systems with network infrastructure, wireless devices, and mobile interfaces.
Install and commission small to mid-sized security systems (IP cameras, NVRs, controllers, door hardware).
Connect and configure system components with accuracy and attention to client needs.
Conduct final testing, verification, and provide hands-on training for end users.
Collaborate with clients and internal teams to schedule and complete service visits or new installs.
Maintain accurate service documentation, drawings, and programming records.
Ensure full compliance with industry codes, safety standards (OSHA), and project specifications.
Act as the trusted point of contact for SMBE clients—delivering support with empathy, urgency, and professionalism.
Recommend system enhancements or upgrades based on evolving client needs.
Build relationships that last by delivering not just service—but peace of mind.

What You Bring

5+ years of hands-on experience in security system installation, programming, and service.
Expertise in enterprise-grade access control, intrusion, CCTV, and intercom systems.
Active certifications or strong knowledge of Avigilon, Motorola, Paxton, or OpenPath preferred.
Strong background in electronics, troubleshooting, and low-voltage systems.
Knowledge of IT networking, Windows OS, Linux, Microsoft Office, and Bluebeam Studio.
Familiarity with diagnostic tools and ability to read complex construction and wiring documents.
Excellent communication, documentation, and client-facing skills.
Self-motivated, detail-oriented, and capable of managing multiple priorities independently.
High school/trade school graduate, military training, or Associate degree in a related technical field.
Must maintain Department of Criminal Justice registration and pass background, drug, and credit checks.

Why Join Us?

Flexibility & Ownership: Operate independently while still being supported by a collaborative team.
Growth: Expand your technical skills with advanced platforms and real-world challenges.

Work Environment

Mix of field work and light office reporting.

Must be able to lift up to 40 lbs. and work with tools and system hardware.
Standard use of laptops, testing equipment, and hand tools in varied environments.
