If you thrive on solving complex technical challenges and keeping broadcast operations running at their best, Scripps wants you on the team. We're looking for a Support Engineer II in Clearwater, Florida, to provide tier II installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting support for the broadcast-specific hardware and software applications that power a national television network. In this hands-on role, you'll be a critical resource for stations and teams across the organization — diving deep into difficult problems, leading special projects, and delivering the kind of reliable, expert support that keeps Scripps on the air around the clock.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

  • Configure, install, maintain, and upgrade hardware/software associated with the broadcast air chain and support infrastructure.
  • Research and resolve difficult and complex problems in a potentially stressful environment and/or under time constraints.
  • Perform systems integration, component-level electronics repair, and construction management in the field.
  • Provide training and direction to local station staff in person, over telephone, email, and video conference.
  • Monitor and respond to hardware and software problems utilizing a variety of tools and techniques.
  • Administer and maintain security of operating systems in broadcast and support equipment.
  • Provide continuous and reliable troubleshooting assistance to the 24/7 internal broadcast help desk.
  • Perform emergency recovery, scheduling, and backup procedures.
  • Manage and drive special projects to support the operation of a national television network.
  • Perform other duties as required by senior-level management within the Scripps organization.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED:

  • Associate's degree preferred or equivalent vocation/technical experience
  • 5-7 years of broadcast and/or IT experience.
  • Valid driver's license, good driving record, and ability to provide proof of insurance with the company-required insurance limits.

WHAT YOU'LL BRING:

  • Strong computer networking skills and organizational skills.
  • Able to conform to a high-security environment and execute the rules governing the Scripps company security and controls policies.
  • Able to work in stressful situations and multitask as necessary.
  • Capable of delivering exceptional customer service to individuals around the organization with varying degrees of knowledge.
  • Flexible working hours required, including holidays, weekends, and evenings with occasional overtime.
  • This is an ON-CALL position.
  • Some travel is required.
  • Must be able to lift up to 50 pounds.

WHERE YOU'LL LIVE, WORK, AND PLAY:

Clearwater, Florida, is one of the Gulf Coast's most beloved destinations — and an exceptional place to call home. Clearwater Beach consistently ranks among the top beaches in the United States, offering sugar-white sand, sparkling turquoise water, and spectacular sunsets year-round. Beyond the beach, the city is home to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, the beloved destination made famous by Winter the dolphin, as well as a thriving waterfront dining and entertainment scene along Cleveland Street and the downtown Marina District.

As part of the greater Tampa Bay area, Clearwater residents enjoy access to a major metropolitan hub just a short drive away. Tampa Bay is home to professional sports teams including the Buccaneers, Rays, Lightning, and Rowdies, as well as world-class venues like Amalie Arena and Tropicana Field. The region also boasts a rapidly growing arts and culinary scene, with acclaimed museums, craft breweries, music festivals, and diverse dining options that reflect the area's rich cultural mix.

Florida's famous sunshine and warm climate make outdoor living a year-round pursuit in Clearwater. From kayaking and paddleboarding on the Intracoastal Waterway to cycling the Pinellas Trail — one of the longest urban trails in the Southeast — there's no shortage of ways to stay active and enjoy the natural beauty of the area. Add in no state income tax and a relatively affordable cost of living compared to other coastal metros, and Clearwater offers an outstanding quality of life for those ready to put down roots on Florida's stunning Gulf Coast.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
