Maintenance Engineer

KSAT12, the Graham Media Group owned - ABC affiliate station in San Antonio is looking for a full time Television Maintenance Engineer.

We're looking for a Maintenance Engineer who's excited to jump in, problem-solve, and help keep our broadcast operations running at their best. If you enjoy hands-on work, learning new tech, and being part of a team that moves fast, this could be a great fit.

You'll work with a wide range of equipment, including VHF transmitters, microwave radio systems, HD-SDI routing, audio consoles, ENG field gear, live trucks, computer systems, and more. Every day looks a little different - and that's part of what makes the job interesting.

• Support live production, news, and weather events (including remote broadcasts).
• Troubleshoot and fix equipment issues to keep things on-air and on schedule.
• Jump into a fast-paced environment where teamwork and communication matter.
• Use basic computer skills to support newsroom and production workflows.
• Work flexible hours when needed (nights/weekends/holidays may come up).
• Maintain a valid driver's license and reliable driving record.
• Work closely with and report to the Director of Technology.

Qualifications

• Experience in broadcasting is great but not required.
• Understanding of mechanical/electrical systems is helpful.
• Familiarity with satellite and RF systems, digital/analog TV equipment, non-linear editors, or ENG gear is a plus.
• Experience with high-power RF transmitters is an added bonus.
• Comfortable using test equipment to diagnose and measure electronic signals.
• Technical degree, trade school, military training, or equivalent hands-on experience preferred - but passion and willingness to learn go a long way, too.
