What are the responsibilities and job description for the Low Voltage Technician position at Guard Dog Networks?
About Guard Dog Networks:
Guard Dog Networks was started by a senior low voltage technician and a systems engineer with a dream: Deliver superior low voltage services in a manner that fully respects the customer and the technician.
After working for others in the industry for a collective 20 years, Wilson and Ryan realized that there had to be a better way. Too often we found that low voltage systems were poorly planned by higher ups and then the blame fell on the technician when the plan was poorly executed. From there, Guard Dog was born.
Our service lines fall under four brackets: Electronic Security Solutions (Access Control, CCTV, Burglar Alarm Systems); Business Communications (Business Networking, Business Phone Systems, Conference Room Systems); Structured Cabling (Copper and Fiber Cabling and Termination); and Residential Automation (High End Residential A/V, Home Automation (Crestron, Savant), Whole Home WiFi)
