About This Role The AV Engineer - East Coast is responsible for delivering an exceptional AV experience as our primary AV presence on the East Coast. You will operate with a high degree of independence, owning the health of the NYC office's conference rooms and executive spaces day to day while deploying as a core member of the install team on major office buildouts across the country. You possess a strong ability to prioritize and organize tasks while working in collaboration with the AV Engineering team and the Workplace Team, and you're comfortable being the only AV resource in the room: making sound decisions in a fast-paced environment, communicating clearly with executives and stakeholders, and staying self-motivated with a positive attitude. What You'll Do • Serve as the primary AV support resource for our East Coast and Central offices, covering room health, troubleshooting, and repair of professional audio systems, video display systems, and video-conferencing solutions. Support regional offices remotely from NYC with periodic on-site visits as needed. • Provide white-glove AV support for executive requests and high-visibility meetings (All Hands, leadership meetings, product announcements) in the East Coast region. • Deploy as a core installer on medium and large office buildout projects: rack fabrication, cable termination, device mounting, and final hookup and testing of AV systems, working directly alongside the build lead. • Contribute to comprehensive project documentation during builds (as-builts, room records, and configuration notes) so every system is fully captured before handoff to operations. • Assist with system commissioning, preventive maintenance, and upgrades of AV hardware across the deployed fleet, with growing ownership of East Coast systems support as the office footprint expands. • Perform daily room sweeps each morning to confirm conference room health and ensure all systems can be used to their full capacity for the day. • Provide timezone overlap support for European offices, partnering with regional AV and IT staff on remote troubleshooting. • Coordinate on-site with vendors, contractors, and the Workplace Team during projects and day-to-day operations. What You Bring • 4+ years of corporate Audio Visual experience, with significant hands-on installation work. • Proven install skills: rack building and dressing, cable pulling and termination (Cat6, audio, video), display/camera/speaker mounting, and reading and interpreting AV drawings and schematics. • Experience with video conferencing platforms and hardware (Zoom Rooms, Neat, QSC, DTen, or similar). • Working knowled
