You're comfortable working through electrical schematics, controllers, contactors, sensors, wiring, motors, industrial batteries, charging systems, and intermittent electrical faults. And you're experienced enough to work independently at customer locations, make sound diagnostic decisions, communicate clearly with customers, and get equipment safely back into operation.
