Auto Action Technologies

About This Role

Auto Action Technologies is a SoundOff Signal authorized emergency vehicle upfitter in Kenilworth, NJ. We build police interceptors, fire vehicles, EMS units, transit buses, and government fleet vehicles for agencies across the tri-state area. Our shop runs IPC-620 certified technicians and a strict 3-stage quality control process.

As an Upfitter Technician, you work independently on full vehicle builds from start to finish. You own your bay and your build — executing complete law enforcement, fire, and EMS conversions with minimal supervision.

Responsibilities

•          Execute complete emergency vehicle upfits independently — police interceptors, fire, EMS, and fleet vehicles

•          Install, wire, and program lights, sirens, control systems, and accessories per build sheets

•          Perform 12-volt electrical work: power distribution, circuit protection, and grounding

•          Read and execute wiring diagrams and installation schematics without supervision

•          Conduct full quality inspections on completed builds covering function, aesthetics, and safety

•          Remove and reinstall interior trim panels professionally

•          Train and guide Level C technicians assigned to your bay

•          Coordinate with shop supervisor on build schedules and parts requirements

Requirements

•          3 or more years of automotive electrical or emergency vehicle upfitting experience

•          EVT Level 1 certification required — Level 2 preferred (testing fees paid by AAT)

•          Proficiency with 12/24-volt automotive electrical systems, power distribution, and CAN bus basics

•          Experience with SoundOff Signal, Whelen, Federal Signal, or Code 3 platforms

•          Ability to read and execute complex wiring schematics independently

•          Fabrication skills: console and cabinet installation, custom mounting, and interior trim work

•          Familiarity with Ford Police Interceptor, Chevy Tahoe/Silverado, and Ram platforms preferred

•          Valid driver's license required

•          Strong attention to detail and professional pride in build quality

What We Offer

•          Base pay $22–$28/hour plus per-vehicle commission — your output drives your income

•          EVT Level 1 and Level 2 certification support — testing fees paid by AAT

•          Clear path to Lead Technician designation and Level A pay

•          Medical and Dental insurance

•          401(k) with company contributions

•          A real shop doing real public safety builds — not a dealership or service center
