As Flock expands as a multi-product company, our physical camera and solar infrastructure footprint across public and private environments is growing. Maintaining seamless operational readiness requires hands-on technical execution across both brand-new site deployments and critical ongoing hardware maintenance. You will install, align, and service our solar panels, cameras, and infrastructure directly in the field, keeping safety hardware operating reliably across every community we serve.

What You'll Own

  • Execute physical hardware installations and maintenance across camera systems, solar panels, batteries, and mounting poles.

  • Conduct thorough site surveys with public safety partners and property owners to verify traffic control plans and permit compliance.

  • Perform physical site preparation including post-hole digging, mounting hardware, and aligning LPR and PTZ cameras.

  • Diagnose and repair field hardware, software connections, and minor underground private wiring or irrigation disruptions.

  • Document completed installations, inventory logs, and service records directly through the mobile field application while managing local equipment shipments.

  • Demonstrate hands-on mechanical aptitude with power and hand tools, including comfort operating ladders, bucket trucks, and lifts at heights up to 30 feet.

  • Operate field vehicles and tow support trailers safely while adhering to environmental and workplace safety protocols.

What This Role is Not

  • This isn't a desk-based or remote troubleshooting role; you'll be outdoors in the field every day working on rooftops, ladders, and bucket trucks in all weather conditions.

  • This is not solely a new-installation or single-product job; your time will be split between new deployments and ongoing fleet maintenance across cameras, solar systems, and mobile trailers.

  • This isn't a fixed-schedule local role; you will travel up to 50% across your region with dynamic schedules that adapt to customer site needs.

What You Bring

  • Practical experience in low-voltage wiring, electrical assembly, construction, or technical field service environments.

  • Ability to meet physical field requirements, including lifting equipment up to 50 lbs and working outdoors independently across dynamic daily routes.

  • Capability to drive service vans, trucks, and tow small equipment trailers safely across public and private roadways.

  • Comfort using mobile applications and basic digital tools to log service records, submit site photos, and track inventory.

  • Possession of a valid driver's license is required.

Flock Safety is a comprehensive public safety operating system and security hardware network designed to eliminate crime and build safer communities. The company is most widely recognized for its proprietary Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) cameras, which capture actionable vehicle data—such as license plates, vehicle make, type, color, and unique identifying features (like roof racks or bumper stickers). Under the hood, Flock Safety combines solar-powered, infrastructure-free hardware with an advanced, cloud-based machine learning platform. This software instantly cross-references captured vehicle data against state and national crime databases (like the FBI's NCIC), sending real-time alerts to local law enforcement when a stolen or wanted vehicle enters a monitored area. Their primary target audience spans a wide spectrum, including thousands of local police departments, Homeowners Associations (HOAs), property managers, school districts, and commercial businesses. What sets Flock Safety apart in the physical security space is its ethical, privacy-first approach to surveillance—data is strictly encrypted, automatically deleted after 30 days by default, does not use facial recognition, and is expressly not sold to third parties, striking a unique balance between proactive crime prevention and community privacy.
