Your Typical Shift

You’ll work onsite at 5484 West River Drive Northeast, Comstock Park, MI, on a consistent full-time schedule: Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM–5:00 PM (42.5 hours/week). The day starts with organizing your work flow and the morning is typically mixed with inspections, tests, services, and repairs. During the afternoon we focus on completing projects, maintenance, and repairs.
