$38-$45+ per hour, based on experience and qualifications Help Us Build Something Victory Fire Protection is expanding its Fire Alarm Division, and we're looking for an experienced Lead Fire Alarm Technician who wants more than another technician job. We're building our fire alarm operation with a simple goal: hire great people, perform high-quality work, take care of our customers, and create a place where talented technicians can build a career. This is an opportunity to get involved early and have a real voice in how the department operates. We're looking for a technician who takes pride in the trade—someone who can troubleshoot a difficult system, run a project, work professionally with customers and AHJs, and help develop the technicians working alongside them. What You'll Do You'll perform and lead commercial fire alarm installation, service, programming, commissioning, testing and troubleshooting throughout the Greater Philadelphia, South Jersey and surrounding markets. You'll work with fire alarm control panels, initiating devices, notification appliances, power supplies, sprinkler interfaces, fire pumps, elevator recall, HVAC shutdown, door release and other life-safety system interfaces. As a Lead Technician, you'll also help: Run fire alarm projects from startup through acceptance testing Read and interpret drawings, specifications and sequence-of-operations documents Troubleshoot SLC, NAC, power, communication and ground-fault conditions Program and commission fire alarm systems Coordinate work with electricians, sprinkler technicians, GCs and other trades Conduct acceptance testing with AHJs Document field conditions and deficiencies Train and mentor developing technicians Help establish Victory's field standards and best practices Who We're Looking For We're primarily interested in commercial fire alarm professionals , not simply general low-voltage experience.

You're not joining a massive organization where you're simply another technician number. You're joining Victory while we're building the Fire Alarm Division . That means the right Lead Technician will have an opportunity to influence how we install systems, how we perform service, how we train technicians and ultimately how the department grows. We want someone who may eventually grow beyond Lead Technician into opportunities such as: Lead Technician → Field Supervisor → Fire Alarm Operations Leadership What We Offer $38-$45+ per hour Overtime opportunities Company vehicle Company fuel card Company phone/tablet Medical, dental and vision benefits 401(k) Paid vacation and holidays Paid manufacturer training Paid NICET testing/certification support Tool/boot allowance Advancement opportunities Direct access to Fire Alarm Division leadership You don't need to be actively looking for a job.
