Job Description

For over 20 years, this full-service low-voltage contractor has been designing, installing, and supporting state-of-the-art structured cabling systems, access control systems, intrusion alarm systems, camera surveillance systems, unified communications systems, and audio/visual solutions. With a reputation for quality and reliability, they've become a trusted name in the industry for commercial, healthcare, education, and industrial clients.

Position Overview
We're looking for a Cable Technician 2 to join our team and support structured cabling and low-voltage system installations across a variety of commercial job sites. This position requires hands-on proficiency with copper and fiber installations, including splicing and rack building, as well as the ability to troubleshoot and test system integrity.

Tech 2s are skilled, experienced installers who execute high-quality work while also helping guide Tech 1s in the field. While not responsible for managing labor like a lead, you're seen as a mentor by junior techs and are expected to set the standard on job sites.

Key Responsibilities

• Run and dress structured cabling (Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a) per job specs
• Terminate RJ45s at the patch panel using punch-down tools
• Perform copper testing and documentation
• Splice fiber, including mechanical splicing
• Build out ladder racks, IDFs, and MDFs
• Label, trace, and verify cable connectivity using tone and volt meters
• Install access control, security, CCTV, paging, and A/V field devices
• Read and follow blueprints, wiring diagrams, and scope documents
• Work safely on ladders, lifts, and around active customers in schools, hospitals, and commercial sites
• Provide informal leadership and guidance to Tech 1s on site
• Support field teams with subcontracted national service work
• Other duties as assigned by supervisor

Required Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience in structured cabling and low-voltage systems
• High proficiency in copper and fiber installs, splicing, and closet builds
• Experience in schools, hospitals, and occupied commercial environments
• Strong understanding of patch panel terminations, labeling, and connectivity testing
• Ability to work independently, communicate clearly, and represent the company professionally
• Reliable transportation and a valid driver's license with a clean driving record
• OSHA 10 certification preferred
• Comfortable working at heights and lifting/moving equipment
• Solid team player who sets the tone for others through accountability and craftsmanship

Benefits and Compensation

• $26 $35/hr based on experience and qualifications
• Health, dental, vision, and life insurance
• Short-term disability, AD&D, and long-term disability coverage
• 401(k) with company match
• Flexible paid time off (PTO)
• Opportunities for growth and advancement

Why Work With Us

We're more than a low-voltage contractor, we're a close-knit team that takes pride in our work and supports each other's growth. You'll work alongside experienced professionals in a company known for doing things right the first time. Whether you're building out an MDF or guiding a newer tech, you'll be part of a company that values craftsmanship, safety, and long-term success.
