  • Solid understanding of single- and three-phase electrical fundamentals; able to read schematics
  • Valid FL driver's license and clean driving record
  • Able to work outdoors in Florida heat, lift 50+ lbs, kneel/climb as needed
  • Manufacturer/dealer certification (Generac, Kohler, or Cummins) or EGSA certification a strong plus

  1. Do you have 3+ years of direct standby/generator service experience? (Yes/No — "No" disqualifies)
  2. Do you have a valid FL driver's license and a clean driving record? (Yes/No — "No" disqualifies)
