  • Work safely with hand tools, power tools, plumbing equipment, and underground locating equipment while following all safety protocols
  • Document work performed, materials used, and time on site in service tickets or work orders with clear, accurate notes
  • Communicate professionally with customers on-site, explaining findings, recommended repairs, and system operation in clear terms
  • Coordinate with supervisors, designers, and other crew members to schedule work, prioritize tasks, and complete projects on time
  • Monitor inventory on the service vehicle or in the shop and report material needs to ensure readiness for upcoming jobs
  • Comply with company policies, local codes, and environmental best practices related to water conservation and irrigation design
