Oculus Group has partnered with Shamrock Business Consulting and is searching for a NETA certified Field Supervisor in Boise, Seattle or Portland. This is a local role. You'll sleep in your own bed, not in an airport or a hotel. You'll run acceptance and maintenance testing crews in the field. You own the scheduling, technical direction, safety, and the quality of everything that leaves the site. You're the senior technical authority on the job, and the person the client calls when something doesn't test right.
What You'll Do:
  • Lead field crews on acceptance and maintenance testing across data center, industrial, utility, and commercial work
  • Serve as the senior technical resource on site: direct testing sequences, troubleshoot failures, and make the pass/fail call
  • Plan and schedule crew assignments, equipment, and test set logistics
  • Own job-site safety, including energized work permits, LOTO, arc flash boundaries, and PPE compliance per NFPA 70EPerform and oversee testing on protective relays, circuit breakers, switchgear, power and instrument transformers, cable, grounding, and rotating machinery
  • Run primary and secondary injection testing, and coordinate relay settings with engineers of record
  • Review and approve NETA test reports before they go to the client
  • Act as the day-to-day client contact on site and manage scope changes in the field
  • Mentor Level 1 and Level 2 technicians and sign off on their progression
  • Coordinate with GCs, electrical contractors, commissioning agents, and owner reps through startup and energization
  • Track job costs, labor hours, and equipment against the estimate
  • What You BringNETA Level 3 certification, current and in good standing (Level 4 also welcome)5+ years of field testing experience, including time directing crews
  • Hands-on experience through medium voltage (high voltage a plus)
  • Proficiency with major test sets, such as Doble, Megger, Omicron, AVO, Vanguard, or Phenix
  • Working knowledge of NETA ATS and MTS, NFPA 70E, and the NEC and IEEE standards that apply
  • Ability to read one-lines, schematics, relay logic, and control wiring diagrams
  • Comfortable troubleshooting energized systems and making decisions under schedule pressure
  • Valid driver's license and a clean driving record
  • Able to pass a background check and drug screen (DOE or clearance eligibility a plus)
Why This RoleNETA Level 3 techs who can actually run a crew are rare. Plenty of people test well. Far fewer can direct a job, handle a client, and hold a schedule at the same time. If you're already doing supervisor work without the title or the pay, this role gives you both. And you'll do it while living at home. Interested?
