    • Clear path to grow your skills and career

    What You’ll Need:

    • A great attitude and willingness to learn

    • Comfort working with tools and solving technical problems

    • High School Diploma or GED

    • Ability to lift 60 lbs, push 100 lbs, and pull 50 lbs

    • Basic hand tools (we can help you get started if needed)

    Position Details:

    • Full-time W2 employment (not subcontracted)

    • Paid training and on-the-job mentorship

    • Competitive starting pay

    Benefits:

    • Medical, Dental, HRA Account and Life Insurance
