- Familiarity with transfer switches, electrical panels, control wiring, and generator electrical connections.

- Knowledge of applicable electrical codes and safe work practices, including energy isolation and lockout/tagout procedures.
- Hold any electrical license or credential required for the assigned work and location. [Confirm required license level before posting.]
- Strong attention to detail, troubleshooting skills, and follow-through.
- Clear, respectful communication with customers, office staff, and other trades.
- Able to complete assigned field duties safely, with or without reasonable accommodation. [Confirm essential physical duties and travel requirements.]
- Willing to learn equipment-specific procedures and complete manufacturer training as needed.
Responsibilities: - Install and connect generator electrical equipment, transfer switches, conduit, and wiring within the scope of assigned qualifications and licensing.
- Inspect and troubleshoot generator electrical systems, control circuits, transfer switches, and related connections.
- Identify electrical faults, complete approved repairs, and verify proper operation before closing out the job.
- Perform scheduled electrical inspections and preventive maintenance following manufacturer instructions and company procedures.
- Test generator startup, power transfer, and operation under load using approved procedures and appropriate safety controls.
- Follow applicable electrical codes, manufacturer requirements, and company safety practices, including required protective equipment and energy isolation procedures.
- Coordinate with office staff, other technicians, and other trades to keep installations and service work moving.
- Explain completed work and recommended next steps clearly to customers without making promises outside the approved scope.
- Document test results, repairs, parts used, photos, and follow-up needs in accurate job records.
- Keep tools, equipment, and work areas organized, and promptly report unsafe conditions or work outside the assigned scope.
