  • Complete related project work and service calls within your assigned territory

  • Serve as the lead technician in the New Haven area, acting as a technical resource for junior inspectors

  • Maintain accurate records and communicate findings clearly to clients and internal teams

  • Represent Cennox professionally in all client-facing environments

What We're Looking For

  • State of Ohio Fire Alarm License

Minimum 3 years of hands-on experience in electronic security, fire alarm systems, or a closely related field

  • Valid driver's license with a clean driving record and a reliable, insured personal vehicle

  • Demonstrated ability to work independently, manage a daily field schedule, and operate with minimal supervision

  • Strong communication and customer service skills

  • Physical ability to lift up to 50 lbs and perform tasks that include climbing, bending, and working in varying weather conditions

Preferred:

  • NICET certification (Fire Alarm Systems) and/or working knowledge of NFPA codes and standards

  • Experience in commercial alarm inspection, installation, or service across any segment of the electronic security industry — including access control, CCTV, or intrusion detection

  • Prior experience in a lead technician or field mentor capacity

  • Comfort working from a tablet or Android device for scheduling and reporting

Compensation & Benefits

  • Health, dental, and life insurance

  • 401(k)

  • Company-provided tools, uniform, and Android smartphone

  • Opportunities for advancement and cross-training across Cennox's banking and retail service lines
