About This Role
This is a field-and-site engineering role at the intersection of electrical systems and audiovisual technology, where you will be physically installing and commissioning equipment in classrooms, meeting rooms, and public spaces rather than sitting at a design desk. Synertech operates in Ethiopia's growing smart infrastructure space, supplying AV and ICT solutions to institutions, so the work sits at the meeting point of engineering and technology integration. It suits someone early in their career who is comfortable moving between a toolbox and a laptop, and who wants hands-on exposure to a niche that few Ethiopian engineers specialize in.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The employer is looking for a practical problem-solver rather than a theoretical engineer, since the day-to-day demands someone who can troubleshoot a malfunctioning video wall or a misconfigured control system on the spot. The junior-level framing with a preference for site experience suggests they want someone who has already been on installation projects and understands that commissioning rarely goes exactly to plan. The mix of AV, LED, and ICT integration points to a candidate who is adaptable and willing to learn multiple technology stacks rather than deepening expertise in just one.
How to Approach This Application
Your CV should lead with concrete projects you have physically installed, tested, or commissioned, naming the equipment types and the scale of the site. Because this role blends electrical work with AV and networking, highlight any experience with control systems, signal flow, or structured cabling, even if it was brief. The employer is likely screening for willingness to travel to project sites and work within installation timelines, so signaling flexibility and site-readiness early will help.
Who This Role Suits
Best suited to a junior engineer with one to three years of hands-on installation or commissioning experience who wants to build a specialty in AV and smart building systems. Competition is likely moderate, as the niche skill combination narrows the candidate pool, but candidates with only classroom knowledge and no site exposure will struggle.
Job Purpose
To plan, coordinate, install, test, commission, and maintain electromechanical systems associated with audiovisual (AV) solutions, LED display systems, smart rooms, smart classrooms, and related ICT infrastructure projects.
Responsibilities
- Install, configure, integrate, test, and commission audiovisual systems, including projectors, interactive displays, professional displays, video conferencing systems, sound systems, microphones, amplifiers, speakers, and AV control equipment.

- Ensure proper electrical power distribution, grounding, cable management, and protection for LED display systems.
- Configure LED controllers, processors, receiving cards, and display software as required by the project.
- Implement smart classroom and smart room infrastructure, including interactive displays, smart boards, projectors, AV systems, lecture capture equipment, video conferencing facilities, and related technologies.
- Coordinate the installation of electrical outlets, dedicated power supplies, cable conduits, trunking, floor boxes, equipment racks, and mounting accessories.
- Implement structured cabling and connectivity for AV and ICT equipment in coordination with network engineers.
- Review project specifications, BOQs, drawings, method statements, and implementation schedules before commencing site activities.
- Prepare installation plans, material requirements, work schedules, and daily or weekly progress reports.
- Diagnose and resolve faults affecting AV equipment, LED displays, smart classroom systems, power supplies, and related infrastructure.
- BSc degree in Electromechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related engineering field.
- Relevant experience in audiovisual system installation, LED display deployment, Smart classroom implementation, AV signal transmission, structured cabling, equipment integration or integrated ICT infrastructure projects is highly desirable.
