Casting: Seeking DMX SFX Programmer for On-Stage SFX Explosion Scene

We're building a set for an upcoming theatrical production and are looking for a skilled special effects technician to help program a dramatic on-stage "explosion" of a life-sized house (16' x 14' x 8'). The structure will physically break apart on cue, and we’re looking to enhance the scene with DMX-controlled effects—fog, smoke, lighting, cork cannons, etc. This job requires the recommendation for the right machines, advise on placement, and program the full sequence into a DMX controller (your preferred system) right now we have a Chauvet obey70, but we can get any controller that the candidate is comfortable with as long as it will be easy for our stage hands to easily run the sequence during shows and rehearsals. Must be reliable, experienced, and able to deliver a fully programmed, repeatable effect sequence. Located in Rahway, NJ — remote or in-person work is welcome. Please include previous DMX SFX work if available. Paid hourly or by project.
