Quality Representative
Location: Various | Full-time | Travel Required

Strengthening our nation's power grid isn't easy, but reliable electrical service is essential to everyday life. Every time someone charges an iPhone, cranks up the A/C, or turns on a computer, we are busy behind the scenes making it happen.

Michels Power, Inc. is one of the largest, most sought-after power delivery contractors in the United States. We execute the entire spectrum of electrical infrastructure projects-including the construction of transmission lines and substations, the modernization of distribution systems, and the development of both Oil & Gas facilities and Renewable Energy initiatives. We also restore power after natural disasters strike.

Our work improves lives. Find out how a career at Michels Power, Inc. can change yours.

As a  Quality Representative - Foundations, your key responsibilities will be in assisting operations with implementation and compliance of existing Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) programs on electrical infrastructure foundation projects. This position conducts jobsite inspections and assessments to ensure adherence to quality expectations in accordance with project specifications and industry standards. Critical for success is the ability to work independently and maintain strong attention to detail while working in a fast-paced environment.

Why Michels Power, Inc.?

  2. We're a national leader in substation and transmission construction with a long track record of success.

  7. We believe everyone is responsible for promoting safety-regardless of title.

    2. Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) and Health Savings Account (HSA)
    3. Short- and Long-Term Disability Insurance
    4. 401(k) Retirement Plan
    5. Legal Assistance and Identity Theft Protection Plans
      (Benefits may vary based on position and location)

Why you?

  • You like to surround yourself with dedicated, value-driven people.
  • You thrive on new challenges and evolving technologies.
  • You think "we've always done it this way" is not a good enough reason.
  • You want to know your efforts are recognized and appreciated.
  • You like making your own decisions-with the right support.
  • You want to be part of a team that improves lives through essential infrastructure.

What it takes?

  • 3+ years of construction experience in electrical infrastructure foundation construction
  • Experience in reviewing and understanding construction blueprints and schematics
  • QA/QC Certification in ISO or the American Society for Quality (Preferred)
  • Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite
  • A valid driver license for the type(s) of vehicles which may be driven and an acceptable driving record
  • Ability to travel and commit to long term onsite projects
