We are looking for a Field Deployment Manager – Technical Solutions to lead the successful deployment of connected building technology across commercial properties while providing hands-on technical support for complex deployment and customer issues.
This is primarily a project ownership and deployment management role, with a strong technical component. You will manage deployments from pre-installation planning through final go-live, coordinating third-party installers, contractors, client IT teams, facilities teams, and other stakeholders.
Approximately 20% of the role may involve technical support and ticketing, focused primarily on issues that require genuine troubleshooting depth rather than routine support. Basic knowledge-base lookups, simple backend provisioning, and other straightforward requests will be handled internally.
You will not be responsible for performing physical installation work yourself. However, you should have enough hands-on technical knowledge to understand how connected building systems are deployed, diagnose issues, and confidently direct contractors or customer teams through on-site troubleshooting.
The ideal candidate combines technical depth with strong project ownership, business acumen, and customer-facing communication skills. You should be comfortable working with enterprise customers and taking ownership of problems from initial investigation through resolution.
Own end-to-end deployment projects from pre-installation planning through final go-live.
Review building plans, floor plans, and construction drawings to determine appropriate device and gateway placement.
Coordinate third-party installers, low-voltage contractors, general contractors, client IT teams, facility teams, and other stakeholders.
Confirm site prerequisites are completed before installation begins.
Track device quantities, installation progress, logistics, dependencies, risks, and project milestones.
Identify potential deployment risks early and proactively develop solutions.
Provide technical direction to contractors and resolve deployment blockers.
Ensure projects remain organized, documented, and on track through completion.
Take ownership of issues beyond the minimum requirements when needed to ensure successful deployment.
Maintain clear project documentation, status updates, deployment records, and stakeholder communications.
Verify device installation, connectivity, configuration, and data reporting.
Troubleshoot practical networking issues involving IP addressing, DHCP/DNS, VLANs, firewall rules, ports, proxies, and connectivity.
Coordinate with customer network administrators to resolve network admission and access requirements.
Troubleshoot issues involving connected devices, gateways, sensors, cloud connectivity, and BMS integrations.
Determine whether deployment issues originate from the device, network, BMS, installation, or integration layer.
Remotely troubleshoot field issues and confidently guide contractors or customer teams through on-site resolution.
Ensure deployed devices are reliably connected and reporting clean data to the cloud or BMS.
Support technical escalations that require deeper troubleshooting beyond basic support.
Spend approximately 20% of your time supporting technically complex customer issues and tickets.
Investigate and resolve tickets that require genuine troubleshooting expertise.
Support enterprise customers with BMS, networking, device, connectivity, and integration-related issues.
Diagnose BACnet communication, point discovery, mapping, and data-quality issues when applicable.
Investigate issues involving DHCP/DNS, VLANs, firewalls, ports, proxies, SSL inspection, and NTP.
Work across customer support, deployment, engineering, sales, and customer success teams to resolve complex issues.
Escalate issues to engineering only when product-level intervention is required.
Document troubleshooting processes, solutions, and recurring technical issues for internal knowledge sharing.
Act as a key technical and project-facing contact throughout deployments.
Communicate clearly with enterprise customers, contractors, IT teams, facilities teams, and internal stakeholders.
Translate technical problems into clear business and operational impacts.
Set expectations around timelines, dependencies, risks, and resolutions.
Balance technical requirements with customer priorities, project timelines, and business objectives.
Build trust with customers through clear communication, ownership, and follow-through.
Support internal teams with technical context during customer discussions when required.
3+ years of experience managing or deploying physical technology in commercial buildings, such as IoT, low-voltage, security, AV, telecom, BMS, HVAC controls, building automation, or similar technologies.
Demonstrated experience owning projects from planning through completion, not only performing field installation tasks.
Strong ability to read and interpret floor plans, building plans, and construction drawings.
Practical IP networking knowledge, including:
IP addressing
DHCP/DNS
VLANs
Firewall rules
Ports
Network connectivity
Experience coordinating third-party contractors, installers, field service teams, or vendors.
Ability to troubleshoot technical issues independently and guide others through remote/on-site troubleshooting.
Strong project coordination, organization, and execution skills.
Strong customer-facing communication skills.
Ability to work with multiple stakeholders, including enterprise customers, contractors, IT teams, facilities teams, and internal technical teams.
Demonstrated business acumen and ability to understand the customer/business impact of technical issues.
Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Ability to take ownership of problems through resolution rather than simply escalating them.
Nice-to-Have
Experience with BMS, HVAC controls, or building automation.
Strong understanding of BACnet/BACnet IP.
Experience with Modbus or other building protocols.
Experience deploying IoT or connected-building technologies.
Experience with enterprise or large-scale commercial building deployments.
