What they need


Are you an experienced Project Engineer looking to take on large-scale, complex projects in one of New Zealand’s most challenging and secure environments? We are seeking a motivated professional to join our team, delivering advanced security system solutions across critical sites.


About the Role

As a Project Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in the successful delivery of high-value, technically complex projects. You will be responsible for designing and implementing integrated security systems, ensuring compliance with all licensing and regulatory standards, and managing detailed documentation such as Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs).

This role requires someone who thrives in both the design office and on-site. You’ll move seamlessly between solution design, documentation, and hands-on installation alongside the site delivery team.


Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and implement detailed system designs and technical solutions for large, complex sites.
  • Lead the preparation and management of ITPs, compliance documents, and licensing requirements.
  • Provide technical guidance to site teams during installation and commissioning.
  • Collaborate with project managers, clients, subcontractors, and stakeholders to ensure seamless project execution.
  • Maintain and manage detailed documentation, drawings, and change records throughout project lifecycles.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve technical challenges during design, installation, and commissioning phases.
  • Ensure projects are delivered to the highest safety, quality, and compliance standards.

Skills & Experience

  • Strong knowledge and hands on experience of PLC systems
  • Strong knowledge of IT networks, server infrastructure, and core security systems.
  • Proven experience in the design, delivery, and integration of large-scale security systems (CCTV, access control, perimeter detection, etc.).
  • Hands-on experience in installation, testing, and commissioning of electronic security solutions.
  • Familiarity with regulatory compliance, licensing processes, and industry standards.
  • Strong technical documentation skills, including ITPs, O&M manuals, and as-built records.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work under pressure in high-security environments.
  • Relevant qualifications in engineering, IT, or electronic security (or equivalent industry experience).

Why Join Us?

  • Work on some of the most challenging and rewarding security projects in the country.
  • Be part of a highly skilled, collaborative team committed to delivering excellence.
  • Opportunity to work on both the design and hands-on delivery side of projects.
  • Competitive remuneration and career development opportunities within a growing national business.
