Electrical Qualification Agent - Michigan

Detroit, MI

DESCRIPTION

We are seeking Electrical Inspectors/Quality Agents to join our expanding startups across the US. As an inspector, your role will primarily involve ensuring that jobsites and projects adhere to proper safety protocols, with a more hands-off approach. Our startups focus on power generators, ranging from industrial to commercial applications. Experience with various kilowatt size generators is essential due to the diverse applications you'll encounter. Responsibilities include loadbanking, proper use and installation of automatic transfer switches and parallels, and obtaining the correct permits per county and state regulations.

Some startups will also involve supporting and installing EV charging stations, primarily Level 3 chargers. While industrial or commercial EV experience is preferred, substantial residential installation experience is also acceptable. Given the nature of the work, strong project management skills are required to delegate tasks among trades, enforce safety protocols, communicate with stakeholders and county officials, and meet project deadlines.
