      Lead A/V Technician

      I manage the audio/visual department for the conference center at 300 E. Randolph. As a client-facing lead technician, my responsibilities are diverse and the role is demanding yet rewarding. Primary responsibilities include, but are not limited to, executive (C-level) tech support, conducting needs analyses, purchasing equipment, overseeing inventory, interfacing both guest devices and client-owned Cisco telepresence videoconferencing equipment with Crestron-controlled A/V devices, training end users on equipment operation, creating instructional videos and manuals, digital signage operation and maintenance, as well as designing, building, and operating custom portable Public Address solutions. I play an active role in live event production, as the in-house A1 as well as the in-house TD when productions do not require a dedicated telepresence support team. I also coordinate equipment rentals and interface with outside A/V companies for large scale events as well as regularly meet with guests and stakeholders for the purposes of providing general A/V consultation. In addition to providing tech support and supervising live event production, I also operate and maintain the AMX Inspired Signage digital signage network for most of the building, which is comprised of dozens of IP controlled players and monitors. This ranges from updating and managing slide playlists to physical component troubleshooting and software configuration. Show less
