We are hiring an Experienced Access Control Technician to support customers across both the Greater Richmond Area and Tidewater region of Virginia, as well as selected regional project sites outside of the state of Virginia.

This role is ideal for a technician who takes pride in precise fieldwork, low-voltage systems, electro-mechanical troubleshooting, and representing a respected company with a long-standing regional reputation.

As an Electronic Security Technician, you will install, service, troubleshoot, and program access control, video surveillance, commercial alarm, and related low-voltage security systems.

You will work on scheduled projects and service calls, coordinating with customers and field teams to deliver reliable systems, accurate documentation, and professional customer support.

The right candidate is organized, detail-oriented, technically curious, and comfortable working independently in a demanding field environment.

Communicate professionally with clients, assess service needs, and provide practical security solutions in the field.
Document service calls and project work daily to maintain accurate records of work performed.
Participate in software programming classes, certification paths, professional development, and continuing education for key platforms.
Serve customers primarily in the Greater Richmond Area and Tidewater region of Virginia with occasional travel to surrounding states for designated projects or service calls.

Qualifications

Proven experience as an electronic security technician, access control technician, low-voltage technician, or similar field role.
Strong working knowledge of low-voltage systems, computer networking principles, technical schematics, and field troubleshooting.
Ability to communicate clearly with customers and team members while maintaining professional standards on active job sites.
Relevant electronics, locksmithing, access control, alarm, or security technology certifications preferred but not required.
Familiarity with intrusion detection systems, VMS/VSS platforms, and commercial security products is a plus.
Detail-oriented problem solver with strong critical thinking skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities in the field.
Valid driver’s license and ability to pass a background check required.
Ability to travel for regional projects and service calls, including occasional trips several hours away and approximately 4–5 overnight travel days per month on average.

Compensation & Benefits

Competitive pay based on experience; final compensation will reflect skills, certifications, and field experience.
Company-provided van, tools, cell phone, laptop, and uniforms.
Safety shoe / boot allowance.
Paid time off and holidays.
Health, dental, and vision insurance options.
Opportunities for professional development and advancement.

Why Join Us
