Seasonal Satellite TV Installer/Technician - Full-time / Part-time

DIRECTV is the premier satellite provider in the country – and we’re one of the companies that install it for them.

We’re MasTec Advanced Technologies and we’re looking for Seasonal Satellite Installation Techs to install, service and upgrade DIRECTV satellite systems. This is a great opportunity to put your experience in computers, electrical, maintenance, cable, military and customer service to work for a great company.

In this role, sometimes you’re the ‘make it happen’ tech who gets families and businesses up and running with all the TV they love – up to 285 channels. Some days you’re the ‘save the day’ tech, fixing the system if things go wrong and bringing the TV back (this is especially critical on game days or season finales). And on other days, you’re the ‘rainmaker’ tech, upgrading customers’ systems to maximize their DIRECTV experience. Seriously, you’re pretty much a hero.

Our seasonal technicians are paid on a piece-rate model, gain access to a 401K, and have a stable workload through the summer.

Essential responsibilities:



Serving customers.

You’ll coordinate schedules with customers, review their order and begin the installation. Once the system is installed, you’ll give customers a tour of their DIRECTV system to make the most of their new or upgraded service.

Installing the DIRECTV technology.

You’ll conduct site surveys to determine the best positioning of the equipment for strongest signal reception and formulate the wiring plan. You’ll place the mounts, dishes and receivers to ensure satellite connectivity.

Troubleshooting.

If things go wrong, you’ll diagnose the issues, make repairs and replace or upgrade components – and get the TV back for customers. Qualifications

Yes, there are some requirements. You must:

• Be able to lift 80 pounds and climb 40-foot ladders
• Be able to meet the 300lb weight restrictions of our ladders (including approximately 25lbs in a tool belt) to comply with OSHA and our Company safety standards
• Have a valid driver’s license
• Pass a pre-employment drug test, criminal background check and MVR (driving record) check
• Be able to work a flexible schedule that includes weekends or evenings
• Have basic computer skills
• A high school diploma or equivalent; college or technical school a plus
