Standby Power Field Service Technician (Generators & ATS)

Lead with Reliability

Since 1986, our team has been a trusted name in the generator and electrical construction space—delivering commercial backup power solutions, expert generator installation, rewiring, panel and conduit work, repairs, and preventative maintenance agreements. We also mobilize temporary power on demand, from 1,400‑watt portable gasoline units all the way up to 2,500,000‑watt diesel systems—keeping critical operations online when it matters most.

A Day in the Field

Your day could start with preventive maintenance on a 20–150 kW residential/light commercial genset, followed by troubleshooting on a larger 200–500 kW commercial unit, and wrap up validating controls and automatic transfer switches (ATS) at an industrial site.
