Job Description

Minuteman Security Solutions LLC supports the U.S. Army Integrated Commercial Intrusion Detection System (ICIDS), which helps detect and assess unauthorized entry into protected facilities. ICIDS work can include intrusion sensors, field controllers, communications, alarm monitoring equipment, and DAQ Electronics StarWatch Security Management System (SMS) software. Access control and video interfaces are included only where installed and assigned.

The Entry-Level ICIDS Electrician assists qualified electricians and ICIDS technicians with pathways, conductors, power infrastructure, grounding, and equipment mounting. This position welcomes applicants beginning an electrical trade career; related background is helpful but prior professional electrical or ICIDS experience is not required.

Qualifications

  • • High school diploma or equivalent. A college degree is not required for general hiring
  • • Interest in electrical work; basic measurement and arithmetic skills and the ability to learn drawing interpretation.
  • • Ability to follow instructions and use tools safely after training; recognize work requiring a qualified electrician
  • • Ability to obtain apprentice or trainee registration and any credentials required for the assigned work and location. Required electrical supervision and licensing remain applicable.
  • • Dependability, attention to detail, clear communication, and willingness to learn and follow approved technical and safety procedures.
  • • Meet applicable customer background-screening, badging, and site-access requirements. Maintain a valid driver’s license when driving is required for the assignment.
  • • Willingness to complete assigned ICIDS, manufacturer, safety, and security training. Existing DAQ or ICIDS certifications are preferred, not general application prerequisites; manufacturer and contract credentials must be verified before installation, administration, or service that requires them.
