  • Record service notes, job site photos, task completion statuses, and billing documentation in Salesforce in a timely manner.
  • Maintain professional, clear communication with field leads, client engineers, and site contractors.
Requirements

  • High School Diploma or equivalent required; vocational, technical, or military technical training preferred.
  • Prior military experience, or 1+ years in industrial maintenance, field service, construction, or manufacturing.
  • Practical mechanical aptitude and comfort using standard hand and power tools.
  • Ability to pass confined space entry training and perform physical tasks in restricted spaces (e.g., 30-inch pipelines) wearing required PPE/respirators.
  • Physical ability to lift up to 50 lbs, climb, bend, kneel, and work in varying outdoor weather conditions.
  • Valid Driver’s License with an acceptable driving record.
