Generator Companies In Tx Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Most generator companies hire warm bodies and hope they figure it out. Plesh Electric doesn't work that way.

Thirty years in New Jersey. Every installation documented, every connection tested, every job site left clean before we leave. That standard is entirely about who we hire.

COMPANY CONTEXT

Plesh Electric serves residential and commercial customers throughout New Jersey — electrical installations, generator systems, service upgrades, and remodeling. Tony Plesh built this business on one thing: if it has our name on it, it's done right. We're building toward multiple specialized crews and a dedicated generator division, with a clear target to be the premier electrical contractor in New Jersey. If you want to grow inside a company while it's still small enough for your work to matter, this is a good time to join.

WHAT THE WORK ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE

Here's what you're actually signing up for.

You'll respond to service calls at residential homes and commercial buildings — sometimes urgent. Generator problems don't follow a schedule. You'll diagnose equipment you've never seen before, in crawl spaces and utility rooms that aren't easy to access, with a customer standing nearby who needs the power back on.

Some days are clean calls — straightforward fault, fixed in an hour. Other days you'll pull a unit apart, find something that isn't in any manual, and have to work through it yourself with a customer waiting. You'll keep detailed records of every job, update parts inventory when you pull stock, and work safely around live systems — not because someone's watching, but because you know what a loose connection actually costs.

The work is physical and precise, and the standard doesn't move based on how tired you are at the end of the night.

If that sounds like a problem, this isn't the right role. If it doesn't, keep reading.

WHO BELONGS HERE

Craftsmanship: You document every phase and photograph every installation — not because Tony asks, but because your name is attached to the work.

Accountability: If you said 8am Tuesday, you’re there at 8am Tuesday. The customer doesn’t chase you. Tony doesn’t chase you.

Safety: You call a stop-work when something doesn’t look right, even when it slows the job down. The Team IV says it directly: you’re the safety guy, not the one with the clipboard.

Clean work: Organized truck. Swept job site. Labeled materials. Tony checks all of it — not to micromanage, but because he knows messy job sites produce messy work.

WHAT YOU NEED

• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation to Whitehouse Station, NJ
• Ability to pass a background check
• U.S. work authorization
• Experience in electrical work and generator service
• Comfort reading wiring diagrams, schematics, and technical manuals

You do NOT need:

• An electrical license — useful but not required
• Years of experience at a generator company specifically — strong mechanical or electrical background transfers

WHY PLESH ELECTRIC

• Pay that reflects your skill level — based on what you can do
• 30 years of reputation behind the name you'll be putting on your work
• A company that's growing — more crew positions, a dedicated generator division, and room to move up
• Tony is hands-on and reachable — this isn't a large company where you're a number
• Trucks, tools, and equipment provided — you show up ready to work
• Tony is on every job right now — when you do something well, he sees it. When something's wrong, you hear about it directly, not through a manager three levels up

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

• Apply — takes about 5 minutes
• 15-minute phone call — we ask a few questions, you ask whatever you want
• Face-to-face interview — about 45 minutes, real questions about past work
• Half-day working session at the shop or on a job — mutual evaluation, no surprises on day one
• Offer — by phone first, paperwork after

$25 - $35 hourly

• Diagnose and troubleshoot generator faults — mechanical, electrical, and software — and resolve them on the first visit when possible
• Install standby and portable generator systems to manufacturer specifications and NJ electrical code
• Perform scheduled preventative maintenance on residential and commercial generator equipment
• Test all systems before leaving a job site and document results accurately
• Work from manufacturer service manuals and wiring schematics — if the documentation exists, use it; if it doesn’t, troubleshoot from first principles
• Maintain parts inventory records — log parts pulled and flag reorder needs after every service call
• Update customers on job status before they have to ask — check in at arrival, communicate delays, confirm completion

Required:

• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation to Whitehouse Station, NJ
• 2+ years of experience in electrical work and generator service
• Comfortable working from wiring diagrams and manufacturer service documentation
• Available for occasional after-hours service calls when equipment failures don’t wait until morning
• U.S. work authorization
• Generator-specific certifications Highly Preferred.

You do NOT need:

• An electrical license — useful if you have one, not a requirement if you don’t
• Prior work at a generator company — HVAC, electrical service, or any trade with electrical and mechanical overlap gets you in the door
