Full Job Description

Are you inspired by the idea of supporting our nation’s critical infrastructure and securing communications for first responders, utilities, and transportation?

Does the prospect of joining a growing, nationally established, multi-location business and installing, configuring, and troubleshooting a variety of specialized police, fire, or utility equipment appeal to you?

Are you an independent, self-motivated individual contributor also capable of rolling up your sleeves and supporting your teammates when unexpected challenges arise?

Company Overview

RACOM was established in 1972 and designs, sells, installs, and maintains all of the technologies used in the “second half of the 911 response equation” — from the time an emergency dispatcher answers a 911 call to the time police, fire and ambulances arrive on scene, supporting specialized phone systems, pagers, radios, and voice recorders to warning lights and sirens.

RACOM has earned its exceptional reputation for delivering the highest quality products and services over its 40+ year history. In February 2023, Eastern Communications acquired RACOM corporation, and now comprises 250 employees across 17 locations nationwide.

Attention to detail in system configurations, testing, and documentation.
Competence in reading technical schematics, wiring diagrams, and system

Preferred Skills

Experience working with federal agencies or public safety organizations (e.g., police, fire, EMS, emergency management).
Industry certifications – Such as ETA, FCC GROL, or other RF-related credentials.
Advanced networking knowledge – Including VoIP, radio-over-IP systems, network integration and IP camera systems.
Experience with field service software and reporting tools.
Safety certifications or formal safety training.

Benefits We Can Offer You

Health, dental and vision insurance
