Xenon is continuing to grow across Ireland, and we are now seeking an experienced Senior Fire \& Security Systems Engineer to join our expanding Munster team.

This is an opportunity to work on a diverse portfolio of commercial, healthcare, industrial, and high\-specification projects \- delivering and maintaining premium electronic security and life safety systems.

We are particularly interested in engineers with experience (or a strong interest in developing experience) on industry\-leading platforms such as Bosch, Milestone, Avigilon, SPC and Honeywell Galaxy. Experience with these systems is highly desirable, but not essential\- attitude, capability, and professionalism matter most.

What You’ll Do

  • Independently planning and managing your workload with full understanding of project and client requirements.

  • Installation, commissioning, fault\-finding, maintenance, and upgrades of:

  • CCTV systems (including enterprise\-level VMS platforms)

  • Access control systems

  • Intruder alarm systems

  • Fire alarm and emergency lighting systems

  • Diagnosing and resolving complex technical issues.

  • Providing technical support and guidance to junior engineers when required.

  • Ensuring all works are delivered in full compliance with industry standards and best practice.

  • Demonstrating systems to clients and offering professional technical support.

  • Carrying out client requirement surveys where necessary and feeding accurate technical information back to the sales team to support proposals and system design
What We’re Looking For
  • Minimum 5\+ years’ experience within the Fire \& Security industry.

  • Strong hands\-on capability across multiple system types.

  • Experience with platforms such as Bosch, Milestone, Avigilon, or Honeywell Galaxy preferred but not essential.

  • Electronic Security Systems Qualification or Electrical Craft Certificate (QQI Level 6 or equivalent preferred).

  • Safe Pass (training can be provided if required).

  • Excellent fault\-finding ability and attention to detail.

  • Confident, professional communication skills.

  • A proactive mindset and ability to work independently.
Role Details
  • Location: Munster (ideally South / South\-West Ireland).

  • Travel: Primarily across Munster, with some occasional travel to Leinster.

  • Vehicle: Company vehicle provided.

  • Eligibility: Candidates must have the right to work in the EU (no sponsorship available).

  • Licence: Full EU driver’s licence required.
Why Join Xenon?
  • Work on high\-end, modern systems — not just basic installs.

  • Be part of a growing, forward\-thinking Irish company.

  • Join a professional team that values quality, compliance, and technical excellence.

  • Genuine autonomy and trust in your ability.

  • Competitive salary based on experience.
If you’re a skilled, motivated engineer who enjoys technical variety, autonomy, and delivering high standards of workmanship, we’d love to speak with you.
