- Ensure compliance with NFPA, AHJ, and company standards using approved tools and systems
- Represent SI professionally during customer interactions, walkthroughs, inspections, and follow-ups
- Participate in 24-hour emergency on-call rotation as assigned
- Mentor junior techs and model job readiness, accountability, and field excellence
- Provide process or training feedback to support continuous improvement
- Maintain organized vehicle and jobsite; follow PPE protocols and report tool or safety issues promptly
Requirements - 10+ years of proven experience in fire alarm and life safety systems
- Strong ability to troubleshoot systems independently without needing constant support
- Current certifications: Blue Card; NICET II preferred

Physical Requirements - Lift up to 75 lbs regularly
- Work at heights, in confined spaces, and overhead
- Tolerate seasonal outdoor jobsite conditions
Compensation - $35$55/hr based on experience and certifications
- Medical, dental, and vision benefits (eligibility begins the first of the month following hire; enrollment due by end of that month)
- 401(k)
- PTO and Paid Company Holidays
