West Covina, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 8/3/2026

About The Work

CALTEC Corp. is the General Contractor on a public works upgrade project at a large public assembly facility — an audio/video and lighting modernization. The electrical scope includes tenant improvement of an existing control room, power and pathway for new A/V equipment on the existing structure, full replacement of the lighting across multiple control zones, generator backup power and automatic transfer switches, underground feeders, and power for new mechanical equipment.

Real work, real duration, and enough of it to plan around. This is a registered California public works project — prevailing wage, certified payroll, weekly.

  • Install and terminate feeders, panels, transformers, disconnects, and automatic transfer switches
  • Set and terminate lighting fixtures at height from scissor and boom lifts, including controls wiring and zone tie-ins
  • Pull underground conductors and support trench, bedding, and backfill operations
  • Install raceway and pathway for A/V, telecom, and security systems
  • Support testing, labeling, panel schedules, and punchlist closeout
  • Work safely: daily tailgate meetings, fall protection at height, LOTO and energized-work procedures
  • Turn in accurate daily time coded to the right cost code
  • Take and record your meal and rest periods

Required

WHAT YOU NEED

  • California Electrician Certification (State of California ET/General Electrician certification) — current
  • Minimum 3 years of commercial or industrial electrical experience
  • Ability to read and build from electrical plans and specifications
  • OSHA 10 (or ability to obtain within 30 days of hire)
  • Comfortable working at height from scissor and boom lifts
  • Valid California driver's license and reliable transportation
  • Ability to pass a pre-employment drug screen and any Owner-required background check
  • Own hand tools

  • Aerial and scissor lift certification, NFPA 70E, fall protection training
  • Experience with high fixture-count lighting installations
  • Underground and duct bank experience
  • Bilingual English/Spanish

Compensation

Wages are paid at the applicable California prevailing wage rate for the Inside Wireman classification, per the DIR General Prevailing Wage Determination in effect for Los Angeles County for this project.

Your fringe benefits are paid as cash on your paycheck — health and welfare, pension, and vacation/holiday go into your wages, not into a trust you have to wait on. Your take-home reflects the full package.

Overtime, shift differential, and Saturday/Sunday/holiday premiums are paid per California law. Paid weekly. Certified payroll filed weekly.
