Travel to a range of locations such as cinemas, simulation centres, theme parks, or corporate venues where advanced audio-visual systems are installed. Carry out hands-on work with high-end equipment such as large-format cinema projectors, LED video walls, and immersive display systems. Assist with installing, configuring, and testing electrical and AV systems to ensure they are operating at peak performance. Diagnose and troubleshoot faults in real time, using problem-solving skills to identify issues in electrical circuits, signal pathways, or display hardware. Support planned maintenance activities, including system checks, calibration, and replacing or upgrading components where required. Work alongside senior engineers to understand complex systems such as power distribution, control systems, and integrated visual technologies. Document work completed, including fault reports, maintenance logs, and system performance notes. Learn on-the-job through coaching and mentoring, gradually taking on more responsibility as your technical skills develop.
