Who We Are
Superior Alarm Systems is a commercial security integrator working at the top end of the market — global pharmaceutical and biotech campuses, entertainment studios, large-scale manufacturing facilities, and high-security enterprise environments.
Our Technician IV is the senior technical authority on every job site they touch. You own the project in the field. You set the standard. You are the reason clients trust us.
We're growing our Bay Area team and need a Technician IV who has done this before — at scale, in complex environments, with real accountability.
What You'll Do
Field Leadership & Project Execution
Serve as the senior technical authority on commercial installation projects — you own the field from mobilization to closeout
Plan, sequence, and coordinate installation activities across crews of Tech I–III; you set the pace and the standard
Partner directly with Project Managers on scheduling, risk identification, and execution strategy
Proactively identify scope gaps, schedule risks, or quality issues — and resolve them before they become problems
Drive projects to completion on time and within budget without sacrificing workmanship
Hands-On Technical Work
Perform and oversee advanced installation of integrated security systems: access control (PACS), IP video surveillance (CCTV), intrusion detection, and specialty devices
Install, terminate, and test low-voltage cabling to professional standards — clean runs, proper management, no rework
Commission and validate Genetec, Lenel, and/or Bosch systems; perform basic programming and system-level testing
Interpret and work directly from engineered drawings, system schematics, and project specifications — you don't wait for someone to walk you through a set of prints
Validate all work meets SAS quality standards before inspection or customer turnover
Quality & Standards
Enforce best practices across your crew — every device installed cleanly, labeled correctly, tested fully
Conduct jobsite quality audits and punch-list resolution prior to closeout
Document work completed, time entries, and project status accurately in SAS project tracking systems
What You Bring
Required — no exceptions:
5+ years of hands-on commercial security installation experience — enterprise, pharmaceutical, industrial, or institutional environments
Demonstrated experience leading field installation teams on active commercial job sites
Proven ability to independently install, terminate, and commission access control, CCTV, and intrusion systems
Direct experience with Genetec, Lenel, or Bosch (at least one required; multi-platform experience strongly preferred)
Ability to read and interpret engineered drawings, wiring diagrams, and system schematics without assistance
Strong troubleshooting skills — you diagnose and resolve field-level issues independently
Valid driver's license with a clean driving record
Residential-only experience does not qualify for this role. Candidates without commercial systems leadership experience will not be advanced.
What Sets You Apart
Experience delivering multi-phase or large-scale commercial projects from start to closeout
Multi-platform proficiency across Genetec + Lenel + Bosch — or comparable enterprise-grade systems
Familiarity with Bluebeam for drawing markups and D-Tools for project documentation
Experience managing subcontractors or third-party integration partners on job sites
Any relevant certifications: ESA/NTS, manufacturer certs (Genetec Certified Professional, Lenel-S2, Bosch), or CA low-voltage licensing
History of catching and correcting scope issues before they hit the PM's desk
