Seeking a skilled Contract Technician for hands-on hardware setups.

We are seeking skilled, detail-oriented Contract Technicians to join us for upcoming project-based engagements. In this role, you will handle the hands-on configuration, physical installation, troubleshooting, and maintenance of hardware devices, network components, and digital displays for our clients' environments.

As a contract technician, you will step into active deployments, ensuring that hardware systems are seamlessly integrated, securely mounted, neatly cabled, and fully operational on a flexible, project-by-project basis.

Key Responsibilities

  • Physical Installation & Mounting: Professionally mount TVs, commercial digital signage displays, and network enclosures to various wall surfaces, ensuring structural stability and safety.

  • Cable Management: Run, route, terminate, and cleanly manage low-voltage cabling (Cat5e/Cat6, HDMI, power cords) through walls, conduits, or drop ceilings to maintain a professional, neat aesthetic.

  • Hardware Configuration & Deployment: Set up, configure, and deploy hardware devices, media players, and specialized micro-computers (e.g., Raspberry Pi) according to strict project specifications.

  • Network Setup & Troubleshooting: Establish and verify stable network connectivity (Wi-Fi and Ethernet), troubleshooting local network constraints, firewalls, and hardware issues on-site.

  • System Maintenance & Support: Diagnose, debug, and resolve hardware glitches or connectivity drops, managing hardware swaps and peripheral integrations during critical deployment phases.

  • Documentation & Reporting: Maintain clear logs of device configurations, site deployment statuses, and technical issues to ensure smooth handoffs.

Contract Requirements & Qualifications

  • Core Expertise: Proven experience as an IT Technician, Field Engineer, AV Installer, or Technical Support Specialist working with physical hardware setups and digital deployments.

  • Hands-on Installation Skills: Solid experience using hand/power tools to safely mount heavy displays (TVs/monitors) and run clean structured cabling.

  • Hardware & OS Knowledge: Experience configuring hardware devices, peripherals, and micro-hardware platforms (e.g., Raspberry Pi, digital signage media players, or Linux/Windows-based systems).

  • Networking Fundamentals: Basic understanding of local area networks (LAN), wireless configurations, IP addressing, and connectivity troubleshooting.

  • Self-Management: Ability to work autonomously on assignment sites, handle the physical demands of installation, and adapt quickly to varying deployment environments.

Preferred (Bonus) Skills

  • Experience with the installation, wiring, or configuration of physical access controllers and security hardware.

  • Experience with cloud-managed digital signage or remote device management software platforms.

  • Immediate or short-notice availability for new contract assignments.

Contract Details

  • Employment Type: Contract / Project-Based

  • Location: Hybrid / On-Site (depending on project scope)

Note: We thank all applicants for their interest; however, only shortlisted candidates will be contacted for an initial screening.
