• Intimate knowledge of broadcast routing systems, including campus-scale routing infrastructure

• Strong networking skills (IP video, broadcast networking, infrastructure networking)

• Deep signal flow knowledge across video, audio, lighting, and data systems

• Strong troubleshooting methodology — able to diagnose and resolve issues systematically under pressure

• Experience with rack builds, cable management, and broadcast system installation

• Ability to learn new and emerging production technologies at a deep level quickly

• Availability during standard business hours in Menlo Park, with flexibility for production needs, early calls, or late shoots as necessary
