Wireman Inc. – Bethpage, NY
Job Type: Full-Time
Company Description
Wireman Inc. is an established and growing low-voltage contractor based in Bethpage, NY, specializing in structured cabling, fiber optics, CCTV surveillance, access control, security systems, and AV installations.
We serve commercial, hospitality, residential, and institutional clients throughout New York City, Long Island, and surrounding areas, including schools, active construction sites, and occupied facilities.
Our team takes pride in professionalism, clean installations, quality workmanship, and delivering reliable results.

We are seeking an experienced, dependable Low-Voltage Technician with strong hands-on technical skills and the ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
The ideal candidate will have experience across multiple low-voltage disciplines and be capable of taking responsibility for smaller projects, including coordinating and directing one or two additional technicians or helpers when necessary.
This is a hands-on field position, not an office-based management role. Candidates should be comfortable performing installations, troubleshooting systems, coordinating daily work activities, and communicating effectively with management and other trades.
Work includes a combination of standard daytime schedules and occasional after-hours projects, depending on client and project requirements.
Key Responsibilities
- Install, terminate, test, and troubleshoot Cat6/Cat6A structured cabling and fiber optic systems.
- Install, configure, and troubleshoot IP surveillance cameras, NVRs, and related equipment.
- Install and service electronic access control systems, including card readers, magnetic locks, electric strikes, and associated door hardware.
- Perform rack buildouts, patch panel terminations, cable management, labeling, and certification testing.
- Assist with installation and troubleshooting of intrusion detection, intercom, AV, and related low-voltage systems.
- Read and interpret construction drawings, wiring diagrams, and equipment specifications.
- Independently complete installations, service calls, and troubleshooting assignments.
- Coordinate smaller projects and direct one or two technicians or helpers when assigned.
- Communicate effectively with project managers, foremen, clients, and other trades.
- Maintain clean, organized, and safe work areas, particularly in occupied environments.
- Accurately document completed work, testing results, materials used, and daily working hours.
Required Qualifications
- Minimum 3 years of hands-on experience in low-voltage installations, preferably in commercial environments.
- Strong working knowledge of structured cabling, CCTV, and access control systems.
- Ability to troubleshoot technical problems and complete assignments independently.
- Experience with cable terminations, rack installations, and network cabling testing.
- Ability to read construction drawings and follow project specifications.
- Experience working on active construction sites.
- Strong attention to detail, organization, and quality workmanship.
- Ability to work independently or as part of a crew.
- Dependable attendance, punctuality, and effective communication skills.
- Comfortable working on ladders and performing the physical requirements of field installations.
- Valid driver's license and reliable transportation.
- Flexibility to work occasional evenings or after-hours shifts when required.
Preferred Qualifications
- OSHA 30 certification and/or NYC Site Safety Training (SST) card.
- Experience independently running smaller projects or supervising technicians and helpers.
- Familiarity with SALTO, Keyscan, Honeywell, Bosch, Hikvision, Hanwha, or similar security systems.
- Experience with CCTV/NVR configuration, programming, and troubleshooting.
- Fiber optic termination, fusion splicing, and testing experience.
- Familiarity with network switches, PoE devices, and basic IP networking.
