Owns end-to-end visual integrity, color fidelity, signal processing, and operation of large- and small-format LED systems and video playback pipelines across rehearsals, live events, and broadcasts.

Responsibilities

  • Act as the technical point of contact for display and video pipeline integrity across rehearsals, executive QCs, and live broadcasts at SJT, APO, and remote production sites.
  • Serve as technical lead on display hardware selection for remote productions, specifying screen types, dimensions, aspect ratios, and pixel pitch tailored to audience sight lines and on-camera performance.
  • Develop signal flow diagrams for live event display and video systems
  • Project manage and oversee the deployment of show display and video systems for live events, including vendor management and supervising technical crews.
  • Assist with set-up and deployment of display control systems during rehearsals, live events, and broadcasts, including occasional operation.
  • Partner closely with Keynote producers, video editors and post-production teams to establish and enforce best practices for asset delivery and display optimization.
  • Validate color accuracy, luminance, and gamma curves across displays; inspect source files in DaVinci Resolve to troubleshoot color pipeline mismatches.
  • Assist with troubleshoot processing, cabling, scaling, or tile anomalies in real time without disruption to presenters or live audiences.
  • QC and live monitoring of video content, including Keynote presentations, product launch films, pre-show animations, and live feeds for playback anomalies, dropped frames, motion judder, scaling artifacts, sharpness, and moiré.
  • Communicate visual and technical feedback clearly and diplomatically with creative leads, and production stakeholders.
  • Verify signal path integrity, genlock, frame rates, processing latency, and redundant failovers across the display infrastructure.
  • Document and archive all system designs, configuration files, system back-ups and technical run books.
  • Partner with the engineering teams to evaluate next-generation display tech, calibration tools, and emerging video processing platforms.
  • This role requires up to 30% travel, including both domestic and international travel, based on project needs.
  • Work may be required during evenings, overnight hours, weekends, and holidays in support of live events and broadcasts.

Qualifications

  • 3+ years of hands-on technical experience with professional LED display systems, video processors, and live event video pipelines.
  • Demonstrated understanding of color science, color spaces (Rec.709, DCI-P3, Rec.2020), bit depth, dynamic range, and video inspection in tools like DaVinci Resolve.
  • Working knowledge of professional LED processing platforms (e.g., Megapixel Helios, Brompton Tessera).
  • Solid grasp of video engineering fundamentals: signal flow (SDI, HDMI, fiber, SMPTE 2110), EDID, aspect ratios, pixel mapping, raster management, genlock, and frame-rates.
  • Direct experience operating Apple Keynote and playback hardware in a technical production environment.
  • Experience with live event media servers and screen management switchers (e.g., Barco E2/E3, Disguise, Pixera).
  • Proven ability to communicate visual and technical issues cross-functionally with creative, editorial, and executive-facing teams under pressure.
  • Broadcast and on-camera LED display experience, including shutter angle synchronization, refresh rates, scan lines, and camera-to-display moiré mitigation.
  • Experience with live event media servers and screen management switchers (e.g., Disguise, Pixera).
  • Background supporting high-profile keynote presentations, premium product launches, or studio broadcast environments.
  • Practical knowledge of physical screen engineering, including load distribution, ground-support systems, rigging safety, and power distribution.
