Be the Brains Behind the Tech

At Rich AV Design, we don’t just install tech, we elevate lifestyles. From smart lighting and motorized shades to immersive home theaters and enterprise-grade networks, we create seamless, intelligent environments that blend form, function, and finesse.

We’re looking for an experienced Installer / Programmer who’s not just skilled with tools and tech, but passionate about quality, problem-solving, and next-level client service.

Many great techs come from theater or production backgrounds. This role, though, focuses on permanent smart home and commercial systems - the kind built into the architecture and networked for everyday use. If you’re excited to learn that side of A/V, we’re happy to train the right person.

Who You Are (Because You’re a Rock Star)

• A seasoned pro – With 5+ years of A/V experience, you’ve been around the rack a few times.
• A problem-solver – Whether it’s debugging a network issue or recalibrating a system, you don’t just fix it—you solve it.
• Detail-obsessed – You take pride in clean terminations, organized racks, and pixel-perfect programming.
• A team player – You collaborate, communicate, and are always willing to lend a hand.
• Technically fearless – Networks, control systems, WiFi access points? Bring it on.
• A lifelong learner – You’re always curious about the next upgrade or system tweak that can make things run smoother.
• Client-focused – You understand that your work shapes the user experience, and you want every client to feel like a VIP.

What You’ll Do (aka Your Superpowers in Action)

You'll be on the front lines of delivering sleek, sophisticated home automation solutions. From wiring and mounting to programming and troubleshooting, you’ll help create intuitive, reliable systems that make tech feel like magic. You’ll also be the go-to expert when things need a tune-up, and a helpful resource to teammates and clients alike.

The Nitty-Gritty Details (aka What You’ll Crush Daily) System Installations & Programming

• Program new and existing Savant or Control4 control systems and Lutron lighting/shading systems
• Install and configure wired and wireless networking hardware
• Fabricate and wire equipment racks , ensuring clean layouts and secure terminations
• Terminate and test Cat5/6, coaxial, and fiber cabling with precision

Troubleshooting & Tech Support

• Diagnose and resolve technical issues with both new and legacy systems
• Provide support to fellow team members and offer guidance when needed
• Interface directly with clients to ensure optimal performance and satisfaction

Requirements (What You Bring to the Table)

• 5+ years of AV integration experience in residential or commercial settings
• Strong grasp of network infrastructure - routers, firewalls, managed switches, WiFi APs
• Proficient using both PC and Mac platforms
• Solid knowledge of control systems and best practices in calibration and testing
• Ability to read schematics, follow build plans, and adapt in real-time
• Clear communicator with a clean driving record and valid driver’s license
• Must pass a comprehensive background check
