· Can troubleshoot either electrical or mechanical issues confidently (both is great; not required)

· You’re currently working in/as electrical maintenance, HVAC, millwright, elevator technician, or industrial maintenance environment

· Are comfortable working at heights and in industrial facilities

· Want a team that treats technicians like professionals
