This hybrid production/system engineer role will be in charge of both the health and maintenance of the production systems as well as the operation of the production systems during events.

The System Engineer within Event Productions should have a strong background in technical problem solving skills to support the operational engineers when systemic problems arise, and proactively, when invention and efficiency can be implemented to solve problems before they occur.

Production technologies require systematic backup systems so that a buffer is created where the team and client will have knowledge of an implemented backup plan, but the end customer (attendee) will hopefully never even know a problem occurred.

This requires system engineers to have a deep understanding of their systems to quickly identify root cause and offer efficient solutions to maintain production stability.

Responsibilities include:

Promptly, thoroughly, professionally communicate with team, customers, and business partners.
Proactively engage with production team to pursue process improvements.
Search out opportunities to help others improve skillsets and knowledge base.
Design, program and operate live events with autonomy, taking the customers' ideas and delivering an outstanding product.
Ensure industry best practices are followed with a safety first mindset.

Pre-event:

Event setup and technical coordination of assigned systems.
Recommend technical resource scheduling for equipment and labor script.
Thorough testing of equipment use cases ahead of event.
Clear communication with all team members.

Event execution:

Operational technical services for assigned events.

Optimizing systems for the best quality attainable.

Technical leadership of vendor engineers when required.

Dynamically flex to client needs and changes.

Post-event:

Assist with strike of event space(s), ensuring correct equipment handling and storage.

Participate in post-event feedback discussions/surveys.

This is a full time, 40/hr week position with adaptive event hours (not necessarily normal business hours).

Travel to cities throughout Canada and the US would be expected, approx 25% of the time during the first year.
