The Electrical Service Technician I is an entry-level, client-facing field role supporting the troubleshooting, diagnosis, repair, and servicing of electrical systems under the direct supervision of a Journeyman or Master Electrician. The role assists with service calls in commercial, industrial, and operational environments, helping identify electrical issues, perform basic repairs, and support installations. The position also contributes to customer service by maintaining a professional presence on job sites, communicating respectfully with clients, and supporting timely service delivery. The apprentice develops foundational troubleshooting skills, follows established processes, works safely, and progresses through required apprenticeship training and on-the-job hours. Documentation or a letter verifying on-the-job training hours may help determine starting salary. This is a primarily field-based position at commercial, industrial, construction, and customer-occupied sites. Work locations can vary daily and require frequent travel within the service area. Conditions may include indoor and outdoor environments, extreme temperatures, noise, dust, confined spaces, active construction, and work around electrical equipment. The schedule is generally Monday through Friday, with start times varying by site and service needs; early mornings, extended shifts, overtime, and occasional weekends may be required. The work requires lifting, carrying, pushing, or pulling up to 50 pounds; standing, walking, bending, kneeling, crouching, and climbing for extended periods; working at heights and in confined spaces; operating tools and equipment; wearing required personal protective equipment; and driving between job sites. A high school diploma or GED, an active state-specific Apprentice Electrician License, and a valid driver’s license with a clean driving record are required. Enrollment in, or willingness to enroll in, a state-approved electrical apprenticeship program is also required. Two or more years of related experience is preferred, not required.
