  • Install, configure, and integrate new audiovisual systems in conference rooms and shared spaces, working with cabling, network infrastructure, video conferencing codecs, and related components.
  • Provide expert advice on equipment purchases and lifecycle planning, evaluating vendor proposals, defining technical specifications, and recommending cost-effective, compatible solutions to leadership.
  • Create and manage visual and multimedia content for internal audiences, including video productions, digital signage channels, podcasts, and training materials used in employee communications and recognition events.
  • Support virtual collaboration platforms by configuring meeting environments, assisting users with connection issues, and ensuring high-quality audio and video for remote participants.
  • Develop troubleshooting guides, knowledge base articles, and technical records, and cross-train colleagues to maintain coverage during absences and to standardize support procedures.
  • Contribute to broader technology projects by tracking milestones, timelines, budgets, and progress updates, and by identifying opportunities to improve processes through new or refined AV tools.

  • Strong working knowledge of professional audio mixers, microphones, video cameras, lighting instruments, projectors, interactive displays, and digital signage systems.
  • Familiarity with IP networking fundamentals and how they relate to AV-over-IP, IPTV streaming, and video conferencing platforms.
  • Proven capability to document system architectures, create user-friendly guides, and train others on AV and collaboration tools.
  • Excellent organizational and communication skills, with attention to detail when coordinating multiple events and competing priorities.
