What are the responsibilities and job description for the Lead Low Voltage Technician position at Odin Technologies LLC?
Lead Low Voltage Technician
Odin Technologies is looking for an experienced Lead Low Voltage Technician to join our field team based out of Sewell, New Jersey.
IMPORTANT: This position requires regular travel to job sites outside of New Jersey. Travel is a required part of this position and is non-negotiable. Our technicians work throughout New Jersey, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Delaware, with a significant amount of our current work located in Maryland. Applicants must be willing and able to travel regularly, including overnight paid travel when required.
This is a hands-on lead position, not an entry-level role. We’re looking for someone who can independently run projects, troubleshoot complex systems, lead technicians in the field, and take ownership of a project from installation through commissioning.
What You'll Do
- Lead commercial access control and IP video installations
- Install, program, troubleshoot, and commission access control systems, including controllers, readers, strikes, maglocks, REX devices, power supplies, and door hardware
- Install and configure IP cameras, NVRs, VMS platforms, and supporting network equipment
- Troubleshoot hardware, software, wiring, and network-related issues
- Read and interpret construction drawings, risers, wiring diagrams, and project scopes
- Lead and mentor technicians and apprentices in the field
- Coordinate with Project Management, customers, general contractors, and other trades
- Complete system testing, walkthroughs, punch lists, and required project documentation
- Provide customer/end-user training when needed
- Maintain Odin Technologies' quality and safety standards
What We're Looking For
- 5 years of professional access control and IP video experience
- Experience independently running commercial projects and/or leading field technicians
- Strong knowledge of low-voltage wiring, terminations, structured cabling, and door hardware
- Strong troubleshooting skills across hardware, software, and network environments
- Experience with industry platforms such as Lenel, Genetec, Hanwha, Axis, HID, Mercury, Openpath/Avigilon, Milestone, or similar systems
- Familiarity with network switches, VLANs, PoE, and IP addressing
- Ability to read construction drawings, risers, and wiring schematics
- Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record
- Ability to work from ladders and lifts and in active commercial environments
- Ability to pass required background checks and customer/site clearances
- Must be willing and able to travel regularly throughout NJ, MD, PA, and DE, including overnight travel as required
Manufacturer certifications such as Lenel, Genetec, Hanwha, Axis, or similar are a plus.
Schedule & Travel
This is a full-time, primarily Monday–Friday field position with approximately 40 hours per week. Start and end times vary by project, with typical schedules such as 7:00 AM–3:00 PM or 8:00 AM–4:00 PM.
Regular travel is an essential requirement of this position. While Odin Technologies is based in New Jersey, our projects are located throughout NJ, MD, PA, and DE, with Maryland currently being one of our primary work areas.
Candidates should expect to travel to wherever their assigned projects are located. This may include multi-day projects and overnight stays. Candidates who are not willing to regularly travel outside of New Jersey should not apply for this position.
Odin provides hotel accommodations and a travel meal allowance/per diem for required overnight travel.
Overtime is available and may be required based on project needs.
Pay & Benefits
Up to $35.00 per hour, based on experience, certifications, technical ability, and ability to independently lead projects. The top of the range is reserved for highly experienced candidates capable of independently leading complex projects.
