About this role
Titan Electronics is looking for someone who can bridge hands-on technical work with project leadership. You'd manage the full lifecycle of complex security system installations—access control, CCTV, alarms, and structured cabling—across the Chicago area, coordinating field teams and subcontractors while serving as the client's main point of contact on site. The role requires at least five years installing and servicing electronic security systems, with proven experience leading multiple projects or acting as a senior technician. You'll need solid grounding in low-voltage wiring, network topology, and power systems, plus the ability to troubleshoot and configure systems from vendors like Genetec, Avigilon, and Brivo.
This is a hybrid position based in the West Loop that demands regular travel throughout Chicagoland. Beyond installation and programming, you'd mentor junior technicians, conduct site assessments, prepare material takeoffs, and handle project documentation and compliance. Manufacturer certifications, AutoCAD experience, and a project management credential (CAPM or PMP) are preferred but not required; OSHA 10/30 certification is also valued. The company provides a vehicle, gas card, tools, and travel per diem, along with standard benefits including health insurance, 401(k) matching, and paid time off.
The role suits a senior technician ready to step into leadership without leaving the technical side entirely. You'd stay hands-on with complex installations while building management and coordination skills, with clear growth potential within Titan's national division.
