  • Follow strict safety and PPE usage protocols due to noise, electrical hazards, and elevated work areas

The Experience We're Looking For:

  • 7+ years of experience in transformer oil work, testing, assembly, or service
  • Experience interpreting scopes, drawings, and technical documents
  • Advanced Load Tap Changer experience
  • Basic proficiency with Microsoft Office and online platforms

Additional Requirements:

  • Willingness to travel up to 80% across the continental U.S.

  • Must successfully complete a background check and pre-employment/random drug tests
  • Legally authorized to work in the United States
  • Available for extended and irregular hours, including weekends and holidays
  • Physically capable of lifting 50+ lbs, working outdoors in all weather, at heights (100+ ft), in confined spaces, and around high-voltage equipment
  • Requires good vision, hearing, and English proficiency for safe, effective communication in noisy environments

Bonus Points for:

  • Prior experience leading transformer service teams
  • Understanding of transformer oil testing procedures and reporting
  • Familiarity with transformer disposal preparation
  • Knowledge of oil processing and degassing best practices
  • Class A CDL, OSHA, and/ or TWIC card
  • Technical training or certification in transformer repair or electrical systems
  • Experience with transformer testing software or OEM systems
