Why Work Here?

This opportunity offers a clear path to learn a valuable trade in low-voltage systems with structured on-the-job training. The organization invests in entry-level team members, providing comprehensive training and promoting from within—many project leaders began in entry-level roles and advanced through dedication and performance. Once converted to permanent, employees gain access to a robust benefits package, including medical, dental, vision, and prescription drug coverage, life and accidental death insurance, short- and long-term disability insurance, a 401(k) retirement plan, and paid vacation and holidays.

Work Environment

The role is based on first shift, typically Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with overtime expected when project demands require it. Work takes place at vacant job sites, and you will not work with live wire, supporting a safer learning environment for entry-level technicians. Job locations include commercial construction sites, industrial facilities, and existing commercial buildings such as hospitals, schools, data centers, banks, and office buildings across the greater Nashville area, including Nashville, Smyrna, Murfreesboro, Franklin, Madison, and nearby communities. On the first day, you will report to the office for onboarding and then travel directly to job sites thereafter. The environment involves active construction settings where hand tools and basic installation equipment are used regularly, and work is physically demanding, requiring frequent lifting, moving materials, and working overhead or above ceiling tiles. Attire typically aligns with standard construction and industrial job site expectations, such as durable work clothing and appropriate footwear suitable for commercial and industrial environments.
