Job description

Electricians Wanted – Data Center Construction Across Texas

Tarpon Specialty Services is hiring electricians for the data center construction wave underway across Texas. Projects are being built statewide, and Abilene is one of the first. If you are a licensed electrician in the Big Country – Abilene, Sweetwater, Brownwood, Snyder, Stamford, Clyde – this is the chance to get into critical-power construction close to home, with more Texas sites coming behind it.

We are not filling one or two spots. We are building a large, ongoing electrical workforce and staying in touch with every qualified hand as new Texas projects open.

Who We Need
  • Journeyman Electricians

  • Apprentice Electricians

  • Electrical Foremen and Lead Electricians

  • Commercial, industrial and data center electricians

The Work

These are large-scale, long-duration builds with heavy electrical and critical-power scope. Assignments vary by position, and may include:

  • Conduit – EMT, RMC/IMC and PVC – bending, installing and supporting

  • Cable tray, raceway and wire/cable pulls and terminations

  • Switchgear, distribution gear, transformers and panels

  • Grounding and bonding

  • UPS, generators and backup-power systems

  • Motor controls, control wiring and low-voltage/fiber

  • Working from prints, one-lines and electrical drawings

  • Testing, commissioning and startup support

Data center experience helps but is not required for every position. Electricians coming from plants, refineries, power generation, hospitals, semiconductor sites and other large commercial or industrial projects fit well here.

Requirements
  • Current Texas electrical license or registration (TDLR)

  • Verifiable electrical construction experience

  • Able to meet project employment and site entry requirements

  • Safe, dependable, and willing to work overtime and extended schedules as the project requires

  • Reliable transportation

Pay
  • Competitive hourly wages by license level and experience

  • Overtime available

  • Long-term work with immediate and upcoming openings
