Alarm Specialist

Job Description

In this role, you'll be the go-to expert ensuring that fire alarm, security, and access control systems operate safely and effectively at all AutoZone locations.

You'll troubleshoot system issues, coordinate repairs, and work closely with vendors, contractors, and local fire authorities.

Although you'll work within a small, collaborative team, you'll also operate independently in the field-making decisions, diagnosing problems, and ensuring repairs are performed correctly and efficiently.

Your work directly contributes to keeping our locations secure and compliant with local standards.

Responsibilities



* Ensure proper functionality of fire alarm, security, and access control systems across all AutoZone stores.


* Troubleshoot system issues and coordinate repair services for security, fire, and access control equipment.


* Communicate with city and county fire departments to understand and apply local codes and standards.


* Use alarm diagnostic software and technical troubleshooting to resolve issues related to alarms, safes, security lighting, cameras, telephones, and store maintenance systems.


* Guide vendors and contractors onsite to ensure proper repair procedures and job completion.


* Collaborate closely with a small internal team and maintain strong communication across all channels (in-person, phone, and electronic).

Qualifications

What We Are Looking For


* 4-5 years of experience working with low-voltage systems, fire and security systems, or alarm signaling.


* Skilled trade experience gained through field training, manufacturer-certified classes, and state or national certifications.


* Ability to work independently with appropriate oversight and follow best practices consistently.


* Strong verbal and written communication skills.


* Ability to work closely with internal teams and external vendors.


* Demonstrated ability to manage third-party contractors at AutoZone facilities.

You'll Go the Extra Mile If You Have:


* Additional certifications in fire alarm or security systems.


* Experience working in a multi-site retail environment.


* Advanced proficiency with alarm diagnostic software or related technology.


* Strong organizational skills and the ability to juggle multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment.
