Hello all,

I have been in the US for 3 years and I am an ELV/ICT engineer. Can anyone tell me what my type of engineer is called in the US?

I’m not finding postings with this job title. Is there an equivalent/another name for an ELV (extra low voltage) engineer?

My field includes access control, networking, computers, CCTV, fire alarm systems, and the design, supervision, and installation of these.

I know there must be jobs in this field here but I am at a loss for how to market myself!

You may be looking for electronics engineer, controls engineer or possibly computer science engineer. If access control is in reference to software security, you may be looking at cyber security roles. Best of luck.

Besides SALT, any other specialized areas I should try to get some experience in? Also open to any tips and tricks to help tailor my workflow and experiences for the months to come.

Team just applied for a TS Clearance (defense agency). Trying to assess if it makes sense to wait till the clearance comes through (6 months to a year?) before I job hop. I'm hoping to get some clarity on the following:

2. In terms of compensation, how much value (% compensation) does a TS clearance have in the DC area? Places I'm considering: AWS, Azure, GCP, Data bricks, Appian etc.
Any advice, thanks!
