We're looking for a residential lead electrician who's ready to take ownership of projects, run jobs efficiently, and be part of a company that values skill, effort, and accountability.

What You’ll Be Doing:
  • Leading residential jobs from start to finish - new builds, remodels, additions, and custom homes.
  • Managing a crew, delegating tasks, and keeping projects on track and up to code.
  • Laying out and installing clean, professional wiring systems.
  • Interpreting blueprints and job specs, ensuring compliance with building and safety codes.
  • Installing conduit, pulling circuits, setting gear, and trimming out cleanly.
  • Working safely, efficiently, and with attention to detail.
  • What We're Looking For:
  • At least 4 years of hands-on experience in residential electrical work.
  • Ability to read blueprints, manage a team, and run jobs with minimal oversight.
  • Strong work ethic, reliable communication, and a drive to get things done right.
  • Willingness to lead by example and help build up newer team members.
  • Clean appearance and professional attitude - we want people who represent the brand well.
What We Offer:
  • Competitive pay ($20-29/hour depending on experience).
  • Paid vacation, paid holidays, and sick leave.
  • Health benefits.
  • Company vehicle for lead roles.
  • Paid training and certificates (fire alarm, journeyman prep, etc.)

A clear path to grow within the company - we promote from within.

Supportive, no-drama culture focused on doing great work and getting better every day.

We're a company on the rise, and we're building a team of professionals who want to rise with us.

If you take pride in your work, know how to run a job, and want to be part of a crew that respects the trade - we'd like to meet you.
