4. Rotating 24/7 On-Call Responsibility – Security System

Emergencies

This role participates in a rotating 24/7 on-call schedule to support urgent physical security

system issues outside of normal business hours. On-call responsibilities include responding to

security system emergencies involving access control, video surveillance, intrusion detection,

intercoms, door hardware integrations, and other critical security infrastructure.

The on-call engineer is expected to triage incidents, provide remote troubleshooting when

possible, coordinate with internal teams and vendors, escalate critical failures, and support

restoration of security system functionality in a timely manner. Examples of on-call events may

include access control outages, door controller failures, camera system outages affecting critical

areas, security server or recording failures, life-safety/security-impacting door issues, or other

incidents that could affect site security, compliance, or business continuity.

Participation in the on-call rotation requires reliable availability during assigned on-call periods,

timely acknowledgement of alerts or calls, and clear documentation of actions taken,

escalations, and resolution status. On-site response may be required when remote remediation

is not sufficient or when the incident presents an immediate operational or security risk.
