About The Position

Accelevation designs, manufactures and installs the physical infrastructure that powers today’s most advanced technologies.

This role exists to ensure problems are surfaced and addressed in real time, work is performed to standard, and teams are continuously improving. Team Coaches have real authority and accountability for their area and are expected to solve problems at the lowest possible level.
