Job description

SoBro Construction — Hillsboro, OR

SoBro Construction is a non-union specialty contractor in the Pacific Northwest, with divisions in electrical contracting and wireless/low-voltage. We do commercial and industrial electrical work across Oregon and Washington. We're hiring a Journeyman Electrician who wants more than a tools-only job. This is a field role first but we're looking for someone with the judgment and ambition to grow into field leadership: running crews, walking jobs with GCs, supporting estimates, and eventually helping lead the division. If you're a strong electrician who's been waiting for a shop small enough to actually notice, this is that role.

What You'll Do

• Perform and lead commercial and industrial electrical installation work
• Run work from drawings and specs; keep quality and code compliance tight
• Support and enforce jobsite safety practices (OSHA and state regulations)
• Coordinate day-to-day with our project manager and project administrator on schedule, materials, and scope
• Flag scope changes and field conditions early — you're our eyes on the job
• Join job walks and site visits with GCs and clients as you grow into the role
• Mentor apprentices and help build the crew around you

Who We're Looking For

• Oregon Journeyman Electrician license required (Washington a plus, or willingness to obtain reciprocity)
• Solid commercial and/or industrial experience; strong on plans, specs, and code
• Reliable and present — the field, the office, and clients can count on you during the work day
• Good communicator: can talk to a GC, an inspector, and an apprentice in the same afternoon
• Commercially aware: understands that hours, materials, and change orders are money, and works accordingly
• Wants to grow — into foreman, superintendent, and beyond. We promote from within when the person's ready.

Compensation

Competitive hourly or salary based on experience and license level, plus license premiums for additional state certifications. Health benefits, paid holidays, and PTO. Clear path to increased responsibility and pay as you take on leadership.

The Pay Range For This Role Is

45 - 80 USD per hour(HQ)
