They are adding a Commissioning Technician to own the start-up of new generator and switchgear installations - the last and most important step before a customer's standby or prime power system goes live.\nThis is a role for a technician who likes being the one who makes the whole system work: not just the engine, but the controls, the transfer switches, the paralleling gear, and the load test that proves it all under real conditions. You'll get OEM factory training, a clear path into senior commissioning or project lead roles, and the backing of a dealer that invests heavily in its people.\nWhat You'll Do\nPerform installation checks, start-up, and full commissioning of diesel and natural gas generator sets, typically in the 100 kW to 3 MW+ range, on new-sales and project installations.\nCommission and functionally test automatic transfer switches, paralleling switchgear, and associated controls, including sequence-of-operations testing and utility/generator transfer scenarios.\nConfigure, program, and troubleshoot generator and switchgear controls using OEM controller platforms and laptop-based diagnostic and configuration software.\nConduct resistive and reactive load bank testing, integrated systems tests, and witness testing alongside engineers, contractors, and owner's representatives.\nVerify installation against drawings and specifications, including fuel, exhaust, cooling, and electrical interconnects; identify and document deficiencies and punch-list items.\nRead and interpret one-line diagrams, wiring schematics, and control drawings to diagnose and resolve issues in the field.\nInstall or repair enclosure and package accessories, battery chargers, remote annunciators, and monitoring equipment as needed to complete start-up.\nComplete commissioning reports, test data sheets, and turnover documentation accurately and on time; walk customers through operation of their new system.\nSupport the service team on complex troubleshooting and warranty issues on recently commissioned equipment.\nFollow all safety programs, including LOTO, arc-flash, and NFPA 70E practices, and keep a company vehicle and tools in clean, professional condition.\nRequirements\nWhat You Bring\n3+ years of hands-on experience with power generation equipment: diesel or natural gas generator sets, ATSs, and/or paralleling switchgear.\nDirect experience with start-up or commissioning of standby or prime power systems is strongly preferred; strong field service technicians looking to move into commissioning will be considered.\nSolid AC/DC electrical fundamentals, including three-phase power, protective relaying basics, and controls logic.\nAbility to read schematics and one-line diagrams and to work confidently with laptop-based diagnostic and configuration tools.\nGraduate of an electrical, diesel, or power generation technical program, or equivalent military training (e.g., Army 91D / USMC 1142).\nValid driver's license with a clean driving record; willingness to travel and to work extended hours during project cutovers.\nPreferred\nExperience with major generator OEMs and their controls and service software, such as Caterpillar, Cummins, Kohler, Generac Industrial, or MTU/Rolls-Royce.\nParalleling switchgear experience (ASCO, Russelectric, Eaton, or similar) and utility-parallel or closed-transition systems.\nExposure to mission-critical environments such as data centers or hospitals (NFPA 110 testing).\nNFPA 70E training, EGSA certification, or an electrical license.\nBenefits\nCommissioning sits at the front end of every new power project, which means steady, high-visibility work tied to one of the fastest-growing segments in the equipment world. You'll work on newer equipment, build relationships with engineers and contractors, and develop the systems-level skill set that leads into senior commissioning, project management, or service leadership.\nComp: $35-55/hour target\nHealth, Dental, Vision, Life Insurance\nPTO\nCompany Vehicle & Gas Card\nPaid Travel Time\n401k Matching","description_format":"text","description_chars":4219,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["401k plan","Life insurance"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Electrical & Electronic Engineering","Skill Assessment","Human Resources","Recruiting & Staffing"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-26T03:12:24Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":10,"expected_fill_days":276,"reasons":["conf:0","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-05T05:45:15Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":110000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/d2bgroups-commissioning-technician-power-systems","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/d2bgroups-commissioning-technician-power-systems.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-06T02:37:15Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3952,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":1048,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-07T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":6351},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=6351"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fd2bgroups-commissioning-technician-power-systems"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fd2bgroups-commissioning-technician-power-systems"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fd2bgroups-commissioning-technician-power-systems"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/d2bgroups-commissioning-technician-power-systems\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fd2bgroups-commissioning-technician-power-systems"}]}
