Electrical Leadman – Modular Buildings

The Electrical Leadman provides hands-on technical guidance, blueprint tracking, and wiring coaching to the crew responsible for internal system installation and heavy equipment integration within modular PDC buildings. This position balances direct conduit bending and wire termination work with frontline supervision to ensure all cable trays, switchgear assemblies, and control grids conform to National Electrical Code (NEC) clearance mandates.
Core Accountabilities The Electrical Leadman is accountable for the daily task execution, electrical safety compliance, and wiring accuracy of the electrical assembly bays. Operating as the frontline extension of the Electrical Foreman, this role balances technical production work with real time coaching to ensure zero terminal landing errors or layout containment clashes, achieving an uncompromised path to customer acceptance.
Essential Duties/Responsibilities:
Frontline Electrical Execution: Lead the physical work crew by example, actively performing the highest-skill tasks, such as making complex multi-point terminations, programming control relays, managing heavy switchgear rigging alignment, and verifying ground grid loop integrity.
Daily Workflow Assignment: Distribute tactical wiring and conduit tasks to Electrical Crewmen under the direction of the Foreman, monitoring task pace, circuit labeling accuracy, and cabinet clearance parameters throughout the shift and flexablity to help out fabrication and other teams when the yard gets slow.
On-the-Job Training: Coach and mentor apprentice-level electricians on reading multi-layered schematics, interpreting three-phase one-line diagrams, calculating conduit fill ratios, and mastering safe arc-flash boundaries.
Material & Print Staging: Ensure the crew has the correct conductor gauges, cable trays, wire markers, and calibrated testing equipment staged at the building bay; coordinate with the Design Support Specialist to verify the team is working off the latest drawing revision before landing wires.
Required Knowledge/Experience:
High school diploma, trade certification, or 3+ years of advanced technical experience as an industrial electrician working with heavy switchgear, motor control centers (MCCs), or large power distribution infrastructure. • Demonstrated ability to read, interpret, and explain complex multi-sheet electrical schematics, point-to-point wiring schedules, and connection prints. • Initial leadership qualities, including strong team communication, high-voltage safety enforcement, and frontline troubleshooting of electrical diagnostic meters.
Preferred Experience
Prior experience leading an industrial electrical assembly line or substation skid integration bay, coupled with basic safety certifications (e.g., NFPA 70E Arc Flash compliance training).
Success Measures
Bay-level throughput efficiency, meeting targeted conduit routing and terminal landing milestones to keep project schedules on track. • Circuit routing and spatial layout execution matching NEC code requirements perfectly, resulting in zero terminal landing defects or clearance non-conformances flagged by QC. • Skill advancement, technical schematic competence growth, and diagnostic trade efficiency tracking of apprentice crewmen under their direct mentorship.
Physical Requirements
Physical Requirements • Ability to execute demanding manual labor, including continuous standing, bending, crouching, and crawling into tight structural bays for the duration of a shift. • Manual dexterity to carefully handle small terminal wiring, strip heavy conductor jackets, and operate high-torque hydraulic crimpers. • Visual acuity matching industrial standards for high-precision circuit mapping and color-coded wire identification.
