  • Review technical content written by peers and suppliers to ensure accuracy and industry relevance.
  • Enter and verify vehicle specifications and vehicle -specific product information within the automotive database.
  • Add useful product features, specifications, and compatibility information for customer reference.
  • Participate in occasional installs and field testing to maintain hands -on industry knowledge and stay current with installation techniques and trends.
  • Collaborate closely with engineering, product development, and marketing teams to improve products based on installer and customer feedback.

Qualifications
  • Real -world experience in Car Audio Installation is strongly preferred.
  • Installers are highly encouraged to apply.
  • Passion for car audio, fabrication, product innovation, and hands -on problem solving.
  • 5 years of experience in Automotive or Car Audio Installation.
  • Associate or Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or related field preferred, but equivalent hands -on industry experience will also be considered.
  • Strong troubleshooting and technical problem -solving abilities.
  • Conversational English communication skills.
  • Typing Certification required: minimum 40 WPM net of errors (50 WPM recommended).
  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast -paced environment.
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills.
  • Familiarity with subwoofers, amplifiers, enclosures, DSPs, speakers, and vehicle integration is a strong advantage.
