Skilled talent needed for a growing industry
The home automation industry is exciting and growing in prominence with the rise in consumer adoption of Internet-of-things (IoT) technologies. With this growth comes a need for skilled and career-minded professionals who have specialised skills that include system design and installation, network infrastructure (i.e., wiring, Wi-Fi, Ethernet etc.), systems interfacing, acoustics, audio and video calibration, and more.
Smart home professionals, or integrators, are technology experts and service providers for residential projects. They are designers of the connected home, delivering solutions for productivity, health, entertainment, and more.
Residential integrators are adept in a wide range of disciplines such as audio/video, networking, telecommunications, lighting control, system control and integration, user interfaces, and surveillance and security systems.
The professional smart home technology industry is made up of companies that design, manufacture, install, integrate, and automate smart homes and intelligent building products, systems, and services.
A skilled workforce is the lifeblood of the professional smart home technology industry making it imperative for companies to attract, develop, and retain skilled talent. As consumer demand for connected devices on a secure network rises, so will the need for integrators. These dual-functioning devices and systems require a high level of expertise from a skilled workforce to install, maintain, connect, and deploy.
