AV Software Developer of Modules, Drivers, and Plugins

Excellent opportunity for an AV software developer to leverage their talents in mainstream programming languages and AV control system platforms by creating, maintaining, and supporting the building blocks of successful control system programming - modules, drivers, and plugins that integrate a product's API with AV control systems.

Control Concepts, Inc., is offering a unique opportunity for an experienced AV software developer with C#, Lua, JavaScript, and/or Python experience, as well as Crestron, Q-SYS, AMX, Extron, Crestron Home, and/or RTI platform knowledge who wants to do more than routine AV programming to work with a supportive work team in a positive atmosphere that fosters learning, growth, and advancement. The role requires a commitment to continuous learning and being challenged to develop proficiency in various new technologies and programming platforms. This opportunity is not for everyone.

As audiovisual control shifts from programming to configuration, those who leverage modern software development languages will avoid obsolescence or commoditization. Control Concepts has been blending software development with AV control system platforms for decades to create the building blocks that AV programmers need to complete projects more efficiently and effectively in the form of modules, drivers, and plugins that provide API integration.

Job Responsibilities:

• Create, support, and maintain multi-platform API integrations between manufacturers’ products and AV control system platforms
• Support AV systems utilizing control system platforms including, but not limited to, Crestron, Q-SYS, Extron, Crestron Home, RTI, Control4, and Nice for commercial and residential audiovisual applications
• Learn new programming languages and control platforms as required to satisfy business needs
• Contribute to a project team of software developers to identify new opportunities, create new products, and develop innovative applications that are put to market
• Provide technical support during development, implementation, and ongoing client needs

Qualifications:

• Experience with C#, Lua, Python, JavaScript, HTML5, and/or other modern programming languages
• Understanding of TCP/IP networking and Web technology
• Implementation of object-oriented programming
• Excellent troubleshooting skills
• Understanding of AV systems and signal flow
• Crestron, Q-SYS, AMX, Extron, Crestron Home, RTI, Control4, and/or Nice platform knowledge and programming experience
• Minimum of four years of software development experience or two years of experience in the audiovisual industry
• Candidate must be customer-centric, self-motivated, organized, analytical, personable, and a problem solver with the ability to manage multiple projects and priorities

This position is for a remote worker. Control Concepts has a remote team with headquarters in NJ and members throughout the US. The ability to work independently, communicate reliably, and be trusted to fulfill responsibilities with limited intervention while fitting in with a close-knit software team working on an East Coast schedule is critical.

To act on this limited opportunity, submit a cover letter along with your resume for consideration and share your favorite programming language in [square brackets] in your subject line. Only candidates who show genuine interest will be considered.
