Job description

Are you an experienced electrician who would like to use your brain more and your back less?

Are you a self-starting individual who thrives on challenges and enjoys working independently? Do you like to see how things are made? Do you enjoy travel and not being tied to an office or the same work environment every day? Do you want to help build a successful company while also developing skills that will propel your career?

Who we are: Guidant Power, provides arc flash evaluations, infrared inspection and electrical safety training to industrial, commercial and healthcare clients nationwide. Since 2011 we have completed thousands of evaluations and inspections for well-known companies in healthcare, energy, and manufacturing.

We are adding a data collector to our team to help make workplaces safer. If you have 480V 3-phase factory, hospital or data center experience we want to talk with you!

Who we need: We are looking for an individual with prior industrial electrical experience to travel to customer sites and collect information and inspect their electrical distribution systems. We expect you have experience working in well-run industrial facilities, hospitals or data centers and to be able to read and understand one-line diagrams. You should be able to identify components within the electrical distribution system and describe how they function. Following our safety procedures, you will be required to open live equipment to record data.

In addition to arc flash evaluations, you will perform Line Isolation Monitor (LIM) and Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) testing in critical environments such as hospitals and data centers. This work requires attention to detail, clear communication, and adherence to strict safety and operational procedures to minimize disruption to essential systems.

We are looking for an individual who can work independently as well as with a team. Most of your time will be spent alone, and you must be efficient, able to manage time effectively, understand your limitations and ask for help when necessary. Although you will be alone on site, you will be constantly communicating with our team during the site visit, so there is plenty of support if you need it.

What you'll do:

• Travel to job sites to conduct arc flash evaluations
• Open equipment and record equipment information- via photos, paper, and electronic means
• Read and understand one line drawings and make edits to create accurate as-built drawings
• Test and document performance of LIMs and ATS equipment following established procedures and customer requirements
• Utilize online document storage to retrieve and upload data, as well as spreadsheets to enter information
• Communicate with engineering and the customer to answer questions and ensure accuracy
• Apply labels to electrical equipment
• Conduct yourself professionally at all times because you are the company's interface with our customers. Be able to observe and inquire about other opportunities where the company may be able to help.
• Use your brain, not your brawn, we want someone who can use their experience to accurately describe electrical distribution systems so our engineers can efficiently model them.
• You’ll get to see how stuff works. From ice cream factories, to tires, to hospitals, to nuclear power plants, you will be working with a wide variety of customers whose names you will know.

What you bring to the table:

• Industrial experience (previous experience with arc flash evaluations, LIM or ATS a plus, or an electrical engineering degree)
• Ability to travel (valid driver’s license, air travel)
• Live within an hour of a major airport
• Ability to work efficiently on laptops and tablets and be proficient using applications similar to Google drive, spreadsheets, Google photos, and pdf files.
• Proven teamwork and collaboration skills working in a small, highly focused and interactive team

Additional Information:

• Must be able to lift 50 pounds and walk, stand, and crawl for extended periods
• You must reside in the USA
