Fire alarm, access, building controls, video, intrusion, commercial audio. It's all custom work, not cookie-cutter. Network is a little different. It's more cookie-cutter and you'll see a few women.
That makes a lot of sense. Us tech nerds handle a lot of things in-house where I work, but AV and access control is one of the things we don't touch. Too difficult and specialized for us.
I don't consider it difficult, but it's really an untaught specialty. Becomes more of a network and firewall job every day. Keeping your stuff on a security subnet while setting up access from the outside world or a general subnet is seriously tedious. You have to play nice and be firm with IT entities which would prefer your kinds of issues didn't exist.

I'm curious bublet, what does an Electronics Field Tech do?

It's a near zero for women in the field for AV and security.
