Security Technician at Prime Partners

About This Security Technician Role

Hey there! I’m glad you could join me for a chat about what it’s like working as a Security Technician with Prime Partners. I’ve been in this field for a while, and let me tell you, there’s nothing quite like the sense of accomplishment you get after a day of setting up a security system that you know is going to keep people safe. Sure, there are challenges—like any job—but the good definitely outweighs the bad. Just last week, we wrapped up a project at a local university, installing a state-of-the-art access control system. Seeing everything come together smoothly after a few hiccups with wiring was incredibly rewarding.

What Your Week Actually Looks Like

Picture this: you’re on a commercial site, installing and configuring IP cameras, access control systems, and alarm systems. Your day starts with pulling and terminating low-voltage cables—it’s meticulous work, but it’s satisfying when everything is just right. You’ll also be testing these systems on-site to ensure they’re operational and reliable. Teamwork is crucial here. You’ll collaborate with project managers and general contractors to make sure everything aligns with the project timelines. And yes, you’ll be keeping those installation records pristine and training clients to use their new systems. It’s a hands-on role, but you’ll never feel like you’re going it alone as the team has your back.

What You’ll Need to Succeed

To thrive here, you’ll need about 1-3 years of experience installing security systems. It’s more about what you can do than what’s on paper. You should be comfortable with cable routing, IP networking, and troubleshooting both hardware and software. Strong communication and organizational skills are key, too. We value practical skills, but having a knack for problem-solving and a proactive attitude will set you apart. It’s important to be adaptable and a team player—those traits will take you far in this role.

The Good Stuff

Now, let’s talk perks. Prime Partners offers a competitive salary, ranging from $23.93 to $30.45 per hour based on your experience. But it’s not just about the paycheck. We’re big on career advancement, so there are plenty of opportunities to grow and move up. Ongoing training and certifications are part of the deal, ensuring you’re always at the top of your game. Plus, we care about work-life balance—you’ll find that we’re flexible when it matters. And the team culture? It’s supportive and friendly, making every day on the job a little brighter.
