- Maintain extremely thorough, accurate, and timely documentation for all commissioning activities, inspections, and work completed, using company asset management and project tracking platforms.
- Support High Voltage (HV) charger operations, including conducting plug cycles and responding to service needs during commissioning.
- Perform Low Voltage (LV) battery replacements and jump-starts as needed.
- Maintain tools, equipment, and a clean work environment to ensure efficiency and safety.
- Develop and maintain strong customer service skills, ensuring a positive customer experience throughout the go-live process.
- Participate in training programs and hands-on learning opportunities to develop technical and project coordination expertise.
Qualifications:
- Exceptional attention to detail and a high standard for accurate, organized documentation.
- Demonstrated time-management skills, a strong work ethic, and a commitment to driving continuous process improvement.
- Proficiency with computers and standard software (documentation tools, spreadsheets, asset/project management platforms) required.
- Automotive Technology certification from an accredited school preferred (not required).
- Willingness to develop project management and project coordination skills; prior experience a plus.
- Basic electrical and AC skills.
- Ability to read and interpret documents such as safety rules, operating and maintenance instructions, and procedure manuals.
- Strong problem-solving skills.
- Excellent written and verbal communication and interpersonal skills.
- Must be able to lift 50 lbs. and work in varying weather conditions.
- Willingness to travel and work flexible hours, including evenings and weekends if required.
- Reliable transportation and a valid driver’s license with a clean driving record.
