• Ability to travel (valid driver’s license, air travel)
• Live within an hour of a major airport
• Proficiency with laptops/tablets and applications like Google Drive, spreadsheets, photos, and PDFs
• Strong teamwork and collaboration skills

Additional Information:

• No current visa sponsorship available
• This is a 100% travel position

What we offer:

• 401(k) plan
• Flexible work policies

We seek a teammate with values, skills, and passion to make Guidant Power a leader in electrical safety and reliability. If you can contribute uniquely, we want to hear from you.
