Description
About AMS Events

AMS Events is a full-service event production company specializing in corporate events, conferences, and live entertainment. Our Audio Technician is a core member of the in-house production team responsible for delivering consistent, professional sound across every show type we produce.

Role Overview

The Audio Technician is AMS Events' in-house audio specialist. You own the audio discipline from pre-production prep through show-day operation — ensuring every system is properly designed, rigged, tested, and executed for each assigned event. You work within a siloed discipline: audio is your lane, and you own it completely.

Day-to-day, you report to the Technical Director, who provides technical direction, equipment specifications, and production plans. On show day, you operate under the direction of the Show Lead, who manages overall on-site execution. Your job is to make sure the audio never fails, never surprises, and never gets in the way of a great show.

What You'll Own

Pre-Show Preparation

Review the technical rider, equipment list, and show documentation provided by the Technical Director for each assigned event

Pull, inspect, and prep all audio equipment required for the show — consoles, microphones, IEMs, speaker systems, cables, and signal processing

Build and test audio system configurations before load-out — ensuring everything is working, properly labeled, and packed for transport

Coordinate with the Warehouse Manager on equipment pull lists and flag any gear that is damaged, missing, or requires substitution

Advance audio-specific requirements with venues and coordinate any house system integration needs

Show Day Operation

Serve as the primary audio operator on all assigned shows — from load-in and soundcheck through the live event and load-out

Set up, tune, and operate the audio system according to the show's technical plan and the client's expectations

Run front-of-house mix for corporate presentations, conferences, concerts, and live entertainment events

Manage microphone placement, gain structure, monitor mixes, and real-time system adjustments throughout the show

Operate under the direction of the Show Lead on-site — communicating clearly, responding to changes, and maintaining professionalism in front of clients and venue staff

Troubleshoot audio issues in real time — quickly and calmly, without disrupting the show or alarming the client

Equipment Stewardship

Return all audio equipment to the warehouse in clean, tested, and properly packed condition after every show

Flag any damaged, malfunctioning, or missing equipment to the Technical Director and Warehouse Manager with documentation

Stay current on the audio equipment in AMS inventory — knowing what we have, how it performs, and how to get the best out of it

Provide input to the Technical Director on equipment performance, upgrade opportunities, and gaps in the audio inventory

Stay current on industry-standard audio consoles, software, and production techniques

Share learnings, show notes, and technical observations with the TD and production team to improve future events

Contribute to AMS audio standards — preferred configurations, signal flow templates, and best practices for recurring show types

Requirements

2–5 years of experience as an audio technician in live event production — corporate, conference, or entertainment formats

Proficiency with industry-standard audio consoles and signal processing equipment

Experience setting up, tuning, and operating full PA systems and monitor systems

Strong troubleshooting skills — able to diagnose and resolve audio issues quickly under show conditions

Professional demeanor on-site — comfortable working around clients, executives, and performers

Valid driver's license and reliable transportation to event sites
