Qualifications

• Experience: Minimum of 3–5 years of experience in facility maintenance, commercial building engineering, or residential/commercial electrical trade work.

• Technical Expertise: Strong, demonstrated proficiency in electrical systems, circuit diagnostics, low/high voltage systems, and basic building controls. (Journeyman electrician license or technical trade certification is a huge plus!)
