Providing mentorship and guidance to junior technicians, promoting a proactive safety culture, and driving continuous improvement in testing protocols are also essential components of this position. Because of the dynamic nature of ABM's business, you should be prepared to travel up to 75% to support customer projects, emergency responses, outages, commissioning efforts, and critical shutdowns.
This position offers a competitive base pay rate of $60.00 to $75.00 per hour plus paid overtime, reflecting relevant experience, skills, and geographic factors.
