Project Manager – Networking, Low Voltage & Wireless

This is a remote position. Job Description: Project Manager – Networking, Low Voltage & Wireless (Remote) Position Overview: We are looking for a technically advanced Remote Project Manager to lead the design and implementation of sophisticated networking and security infrastructures. The ideal candidate will be a subject matter expert inUbiquiti ecosystems, encompassingWiFi Access Point (WAP) deployments, Access Control, and CCTV (Cloud/On-Prem). This role requires a unique blend of high-level project management usingZoho Projectsand deep technical knowledge ofBICSI-standardstructured cabling andPoint-to-Point (P2P)wireless bridging. You will lead field teams remotely, ensuring that wireless coverage is optimized, wired backbones are robust, and security systems are seamlessly integrated. Key Responsibilities: - Wireless Infrastructure Management:Oversee the full lifecycle of WiFi deployments, from initial predictive heatmaps and site surveys to the mounting, configuration, and tuning of Access Points (WAPs). - CCTV & Security Integration:Manage the installation of bothCloud-based (SaaS) and On-Premise (NVR/DVR)surveillance systems, ensuring proper storage calculations and network bandwidth allocation. - Full-Stack Ubiquiti Oversight:Act as the technical lead forUniFideployments (Wireless, Switching, Routing),UniFi Access(Readers, Hubs, Electric Strikes), andUniFi Protect. - P2P & Wireless Backhaul:Design and managePoint-to-Point (P2P) and PTMP linksto extend network connectivity across campuses or between buildings where trenching fiber is not feasible. - Blueprint & CAD Interpretation:Read and annotate floor plans and site blueprints to determine cable paths, firewalls, and optimal placement for APs and cameras to minimize interference and "dead zones." - Standards & Quality Control:Enforce strict adherence toBICSI standardsfor all low-voltage work, including rack cable management, labeling, and CAT6/Fiber certification testing. - Zoho Workflow Management:UtilizeZoho Projectsas the "single source of truth" for all project milestones, task dependencies, document storage, and technician scheduling. Technical Qualifications: - WiFi & RF Expertise:Deep understanding of 2.4GHz/5GHz/6GHz frequencies, SSID/VLAN segmentation, roaming protocols (802.11k/r/v), and interference mitigation in high-density environments. - Networking & Structured Cabling:Expert knowledge of CAT6/6A and Fiber Optic (Single-mode/Multi-mode) infrastructure, including splicing and OTDR testing protocols. - CCTV Architectures:Proficiency in managing IP-based camera systems, including understanding bitrates, frame rates, and the differences between local NVR storage and cloud-retention models. - P2P Wireless:Experience with outdoor wireless bridging (e.g., Ubiquiti airMAX, airFiber, or 60GHz Wave technology). - Physical Security:Familiarity with low-voltage door hardware, strikes, and maglocks in an Access Control context. Software & Mastery: - Zoho Suite:Advanced proficiency inZoho Projects(Gantt charts, milestones, and time tracking) andZoho Cliq. Familiarity with Zoho CRM and Zoho Books is a major plus. - WiFi Design Tools:Experience withUbiquiti Design Center, Ekahau, or NetSpot for predictive wireless planning. - Documentation:Ability to review and approve Fluke LinkWare reports and CCTV coverage maps. Requirements Remote Work Requirements: - Minimum 3 years of experience managing field technicians and subcontractors in a100% remote capacity. - Expertise in "Remote Eyes" management—using video calls and photo submissions to audit site quality. - Ability to maintain a high level of organization and meet deadlines without direct physical supervision. Preferred Experience & Certifications: - Industry Experience:5+ years in Low Voltage, Telecommunications, or MSP Project Management. - Certifications:BICSI (RCDD/Installer), PMP, or Ubiquiti certifications (UWA, UEWA, UWA). - Education:Degree in Information Technology, Construction Management, or equivalent field experience. Benefits What We Offer: - The opportunity to work with cutting-edge Ubiquiti hardware and lead a digitally forward-thinking team using the latest Zoho automation tools. - Advancement within the company - Exposure to a variety of technology for ongoing learning and experience Originally posted on Himalayas
