Background

Since our founding in 1825, B’nai Jeshurun (BJ) has been at the forefront of the American Jewish experience. As we approach our third century, our vision is focused on the spiritual work of transformation and on the creation of a Jewish path that is authentic, profound, and helps all members of our community seek and live their purpose to the fullest.

BJ’s spiritual leaders, as well as BJ’s nearly 2,000 member families are dedicated to fostering a diverse, dynamic, and inclusive community that offers multiple avenues for Jewish religious life while providing mutual support in spiritual growth. BJ is committed to honoring tradition while continuously re-imagining and innovating practices and programs to create a vibrant, contemporary, and relevant Jewish experience.

This position serves as the primary on-site technical authority for the physical network architecture and the high-fidelity broadcast environments that power BJ's global reach.

Note:This position focuses strictly on production, campus-wide network infrastructure, and cybersecurity; it does not handle day-to-day internal office tech support or individual staff helpdesk tickets.

• Network Architecture Maintenance: Monitor, optimize, and maintain the health of the core campus IT infrastructure (switches, firewalls, routers, enterprise Wi-Fi access points, and low-voltage cabling) across our historic multi-building campus.
• Data Security & Cybersecurity Compliance: Implement and enforce rigorous data security protocols for AV and network infrastructure. Secure access controls for local NAS/SAN storage, audit physical rack security, and protect live broadcast streams from external interference or cyber threats.
• Facilities & Infrastructure Engineering: Partner with the Director of Facilities on capital physical infrastructure projects, including server room climate control/backup power systems, point-to-point network bridges between campus buildings, and network-connected facility security systems (CCTV, access control).
• Disaster Recovery & Asset Lifecycle: Oversee backup integrity for administrative and digital media files. Maintain a comprehensive registry of technical assets, software licenses, and lifecycle schedules.

Qualifications, Skills, and Experience

• Experience: A minimum of 4-5+ years of professional experience, seamlessly splitting competencies between advanced live A/V production and enterprise IT network infrastructure.
• Education & Certifications: Post-secondary degree in a technical field or equivalent premium certifications (e.g., CompTIA Network+, Security+, Cisco CCNA, or specialized A/V certifications like CTS) are highly desirable.
• IT & Security Expertise: Deep understanding of TCP/IP networking, VLANs, firewall configurations, and data encryption.
• A/V Production Mastery: Command of livestreaming ecosystems, digital video switchers, multi-source audio routing
