The Job
We're hiring a Fire Alarm Inspector to handle routine inspections, testing, servicing, and preventative maintenance on commercial fire alarm systems. You'll work across a range of manufacturers' equipment, not just one brand. Day to day, you'll work with low-voltage wiring and the devices that run on it, keep a tight inspection schedule, and document everything as you go.
You'll log service acknowledgements with the correct coding through a laptop or on paper, and you'll upload, pull up, and file inspection records from a mobile device. Staying on schedule matters here, so reliable time management is a must.Scroll
