Absolute Air Services is growing its residential electrical business, and we’re looking for an experienced E-1 Licensed Master Electrician who wants to stay hands-on in the field while taking on more responsibility over time.

This is first and foremost a working electrician role. You’ll run residential service calls, complete repairs and upgrades, solve complex electrical issues, and provide customers with professional recommendations.

Because of your experience and E-1 license, you’ll also serve as a technical resource for the team, help support less-experienced electricians, and have the opportunity to take on additional leadership responsibility as the electrical department continues to grow.

If you’re an experienced electrician who enjoys the field but wants a clear path toward greater influence, responsibility, and career growth, this could be a strong next step.

Why Join Absolute Air Services?

  • Steady, year-round customer demand
  • Strong customer service, dispatch, and operational support
  • Company-Provided Vehicle
  • Company Tablet
  • Professional Tools and Equipment
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance
  • 401(k) with Company Match
  • Paid Time Off and Paid Holidays
  • Company-Provided Uniforms
  • Ongoing Technical and Leadership Training
  • Career Advancement Opportunities
  • Opportunity to help shape a growing residential electrical department

What You’ll Do

  • Run residential electrical service and repair calls.
  • Diagnose, troubleshoot, repair, and maintain residential electrical systems.
  • Install and replace panels, breakers, circuits, outlets, switches, lighting, ceiling fans, and related electrical components.
  • Complete service upgrades, wiring repairs, dedicated circuits, and electrical system improvements.
  • Install EV chargers, generators, surge protection, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and other residential electrical equipment.
  • Perform electrical safety inspections and identify code, performance, and safety concerns.
  • Explain findings and recommend appropriate repair or replacement options to homeowners.
  • Complete accurate estimates, service notes, photos, and required documentation.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and professional vehicle and work environment.
  • Serve as a technical resource for other electricians when complex issues arise.
  • Provide guidance and mentorship to apprentices and less-experienced electricians.
  • Help reinforce quality, safety, and code-compliance standards across the electrical team.
  • Support field leadership with technical questions, quality checks, and troubleshooting as needed.

What We’re Looking For

  • Active Connecticut E-1 Electrical Contractor license required
  • Strong residential electrical service, repair, and installation experience
  • Strong knowledge of the National Electrical Code and Connecticut electrical requirements
  • Excellent diagnostic and troubleshooting skills
  • Ability to independently manage complex residential service calls
  • Strong customer service and communication skills
  • Ability to explain technical findings clearly to homeowners
  • Willingness to mentor and support less-experienced electricians
  • Previous lead, foreman, or mentoring experience is a plus, but not required
  • Interest in growing into additional leadership responsibility over time
  • Comfortable using tablets, mobile applications, CRM systems, and field service software
  • Valid driver’s license with an acceptable driving record

What Success Looks Like

Success in this role means being one of the strongest electricians on the team.

You’ll consistently deliver quality work, solve difficult electrical problems, take care of customers, and become someone other electricians can rely on when they need technical guidance.

As the electrical department grows, there will be opportunities to take on more responsibility in areas such as mentoring, quality, training, and field leadership — without requiring you to immediately step away from the work you enjoy.

If you’re an experienced E-1 electrician looking for a strong field opportunity today with room to grow into more tomorrow, we’d like to talk to you.
