We’re looking for a skilled Fire Alarm Technician who takes pride in doing the job right – whether that’s installing a brand-new system or tracking down a fault that’s been giving others headaches.
You’ll be the go-to expert on fire detection, alarm, and life safety systems, ensuring every site you touch meets the highest safety and code standards.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Install, program, and commission fire alarm systems – from control panels and initiating devices to full networked systems.
- Test and inspect systems to ensure full compliance with NFPA 72, NFPA 70 (NEC), and local codes.
- Diagnose and repair everything from communication faults to loop issues – quickly and accurately.
- Work with leading manufacturers such as Notifier, Siemens, Edwards, Fire-Lite, and Gamewell.
- Collaborate on projects with contractors, engineers, and clients to deliver seamless installations.
What You Bring
- 3-5 years of experience in fire alarm installation, inspection, or service.
- Solid knowledge of addressable and conventional fire alarm systems and loop/network configuration.
- Ability to read schematics, wiring diagrams, and blueprints with precision.
- Hands-on familiarity with multimeters, testers, and loop analysis equipment.
- Clean driver’s license and the ability to work at heights or in tight spaces when needed.
Preferred
- NICET Level II or III Certification in Fire Alarm Systems.
- Experience with major platforms such as Notifier, Siemens, EST, or Honeywell.
- Trade school or technical certification in electrical systems.
- Previous work in commercial, industrial, or mission-critical facilities (schools, hospitals, data centers, etc.).
If you’ve got solid experience in low-voltage electrical systems, troubleshooting, and system commissioning, and you want to work on meaningful, technically challenging projects – this is the role for you.#HVACTech
