Job description

This role is responsible for designing, deploying and delivering live event and broadcast studio production sites globally. As a successful candidate, you will deploy production systems that enable high quality, efficient operation and meet high customer demand. You will have a strong background in audio, video, and lighting system design deployment, as well as excellent organizational and interpersonal skills. The ability to maintain focus across multiple projects while continuously improving the product is essential. In this role, you will lead the deployment and commissioning of archetypical technical schematics for live event systems, appropriately scaling these designs in partnership with cross-functional teams. You must also be able to receive commissioned systems for upcoming deployments, managing integration partners, and collaborating seamlessly with architectural and trades teams.
