Fire Alarm & Security Technician — Utah | 1099 Contractor
Salt Lake City, UT
2026-04-28
About Us
Computech-XP is a US-based IT and field services company operating across multiple states. We work with enterprise clients and national deployment networks, coordinating technical projects ranging from commercial IT installations to security and life safety systems. As we expand our coverage in Utah, we are looking for a licensed Fire Alarm Technician to join our contractor network on a long-term basis.
About the Role
You will be responsible for the installation, inspection, testing, and servicing of fire alarm systems across commercial sites in Utah. You will receive work order assignments directly from our operations team and are expected to work independently in the field with a high standard of documentation and reliability.
Some work orders will require concurrent coverage of burglar alarm systems. Working knowledge of intrusion detection is therefore a requirement for this role, not a preference.
This position starts at $40.00/hour. Hourly rate is subject to review and increase after a few months of consistent, quality work.
