YOUR DAY AS A JOURNEYMAN ELECTRICIAN

• You’ll be in the field — not behind a desk.
• Install electrical systems to plans, specs, and NEC standards (conduit, wire, panels, labeling).
• Troubleshoot and resolve issues on-site, then test systems (continuity, phase rotation, voltage) to ensure safe, quality work.
• Keep job sites clean and organized while supporting and guiding apprentices.
• Coordinate with foremen and other trades to keep projects on track.
• Expect travel to different job sites (~2x/week), including outside Los Angeles, and occasional night work depending on project needs.

This is a hands-on role — you’re expected to take ownership and deliver.

WHY THIS ROLE

• We’re growing and we’re selective about who we bring in.
• We promote from within and are transparent about advancement. If your goal is to lead your own crew and run projects within 12–18 months, this is where that path starts.
• Steady work. Real standards. No corner-cutting.
