Physical Security System-IT Technician

·       Maintenance: Regularly cleaning camera lenses, checking cables for wear, and testing the system to make sure everything is recording correctly.

·       Repair & Troubleshooting: Finding out why a camera isn't working and fixing issues like "no video" or connection problems.

·       Customer Support: Explaining to clients how to use their security system and playback recorded video. 

Simple Requirements

·       Education: Usually a high school diploma; technical training or a diploma in electronics is a plus.

·       Experience: Basic knowledge of electrical wiring and computer networking is typically required.

·       Physical Ability: Must be comfortable climbing ladders, working in small spaces (like ceilings), and standing for long periods.

·       Skills: Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and a valid driver's license for traveling to different sites.
