Boyd Property Group is seeking an experienced Electrical Service Technician with strong residential construction experience and well-rounded mechanical and electrical knowledge.

We are looking for a technician who can independently troubleshoot, diagnose, and complete residential repairs and installations while providing professional service to homeowners and property-management clients.

Compensation & Incentives

$32.00–$40.00 per hour, based on experience, technical ability, licensing, and demonstrated field knowledge.

Responsibilities

  • Troubleshoot, diagnose, repair, and maintain residential electrical and mechanical systems.

  • Diagnose circuits, breakers, receptacles, switches, lighting, GFCI/AFCI devices, panels, and related electrical components.
  • Troubleshoot mechanical equipment and identify appropriate corrective repairs.
  • Perform preventive and corrective maintenance.
  • Use electrical meters, testing equipment, hand tools, and power tools to accurately diagnose problems.
  • Read and interpret wiring diagrams, schematics, equipment specifications, and manufacturer documentation.

Competitive candidates should possess:

  • Strong working knowledge of residential electrical systems
  • Strong mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting ability
  • Practical knowledge of residential construction and building systems
  • Ability to diagnose electrical and mechanical problems rather than simply replace components
  • Experience using electrical meters and diagnostic equipment
  • Understanding of electrical panels, circuits, breakers, GFCI/AFCI protection, lighting, devices, and residential wiring
  • Ability to read wiring diagrams, schematics, and technical documentation
  • Ability to work independently and make sound field decisions

  • Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record

Virginia electrical licensure is highly valued. Candidates who currently hold a Journeyman or Master Electrician license, or who possess the documented experience and qualifications necessary to become licensed, are strongly encouraged to apply. Additional compensation and/or bonuses may apply based on licensure and qualifications.

The Technician We're Looking For

This is not simply an electrical installer position.

We're looking for someone who understands how residential systems work together and can walk into a property, evaluate a problem, determine the root cause, develop an appropriate repair plan, and complete the work correctly.

The strongest candidate will combine residential construction experience, electrical knowledge, mechanical aptitude, troubleshooting ability, and customer-service skills.

For experienced technicians who can take ownership of service calls and projects, Boyd Property Group provides opportunities to increase earnings based on skill, licensing, productivity, performance, and increased responsibility.
