About the role
As an AV Production Engineer, you are the single threaded owner of AV for assigned events.
From first technical conversation with the client, through designing the AV plan, coordinating gear and local crews, to running the show on‑site, you are responsible for making the event look and sound exceptional and feel easy for the client.
You must be equally comfortable:
•
Deep in signal flow and troubleshooting
•
Mixing Audio
•
Talking to clients in plain English
•
Leading local crews on long show days
This is an Atlanta‑based role. Day‑to‑day when not traveling will be at our Atlanta facilities (warehouse, gear prep, testing, design).
What You’ll Do
Pre‑Production & Design
•
Own AV planning for assigned shows: room layouts, gear lists, signal routing plans, and staffing needs.
•
Work directly with clients to understand show flow, content needs, and constraints.
•
Coordinate with internal production, software, and logistics teams on gear prep, freight, and timelines.
•
Build and review run‑of‑show and cue sheets.
On‑Site Execution
•
Lead AV on site for conferences and events, typically multi‑room / multi‑track.
•
Manage and direct local crews (A1s, V1s, hands) to execute setups, rehearsals, and shows.
•
Operate or oversee:
•
Video: Blackmagic switching/routing, camera setups, projection, IMAG, confidence monitors.
•
Audio: Allen & Heath / Yamaha digital consoles, RF coordination, basic mixing for voice‑heavy shows.
•
Lighting: Basic stage lighting and room wash setups.
•
Deploy and operate our StreamCase systems for multi‑track recording/streaming.
•
Troubleshoot signal flow, RF, and networking issues quickly and calmly under show conditions.
Post‑Event & Ops
•
Ensure recordings, assets, and reports are delivered correctly to internal teams and clients.
•
Update checklists, diagrams, and playbooks based on lessons learned.
•
Help maintain warehouse standards: gear prep, labeling, testing, and safety.

Strong leadership with local crews; clear, calm, and safety‑first.
Travel & Physical Requirements
