Senior AV Technician

• Lead the Physical Install

You are the technical point person on site.

You will handle TV mounting, speaker installation, rack building, and structured wiring, setting the standard for clean, professional work.

• Work Side-by-Side with a Helper

You will regularly work with a junior installer or helper—showing best practices, explaining the “why,” and helping them grow through hands-on mentorship.

This is not a crew-management role.

• Coordinate with Subcontractors (As Needed)

On larger projects, you will collaborate with subcontractors (e.g., electricians, cabling teams, specialty trades) to coordinate scope, timing, and quality—without direct personnel management responsibility.

• System Deployment

Install and test network hardware (Ubiquiti / Eero), IP cameras, and automation devices.

Assist with getting systems online, updated, and tested.

If you have programming experience, you’ll use it; if not, you’ll begin learning it here.

• 3+ Years of Experience

Proven history in residential AV or low-voltage installation.

• The “Hands”

Confidence fishing wire in finished walls, mounting TVs on various surfaces, and building tidy, professional racks.

• The “Head”

Solid understanding of home networks (setting up WAPs, testing speed and connectivity).

Familiarity with Control4 or Savant is a plus, but not required.

We are happy to train the right master installer.

• Professional Maturity

Comfortable collaborating with teammates, helpers, and subcontractors, and communicating professionally with clients.

• Requirements

Valid driver’s license and ability to pass a background check.

We believe in promoting from within.

This role offers a clear pathway to:

• Senior Technician → Automation Programmer
• Automation Programmer → Project Manager

We provide paid training and support to help you obtain Control4 and Savant certifications.

Based in Friendswood, Jarvis Smart Homes is a locally owned integrator that prioritizes quality craftsmanship over high-volume churn.

We serve high-end residential clients who expect perfection, and we treat our team with that same level of care and respect.

Unlike large corporate shops where technicians are just a number, here you’ll work closely with the owner, have a dedicated helper for physical support, and collaborate with trusted subcontractors on larger projects.
