This is a full time position with AEPS Electric.

“Good electricians strive to do good work efficiently, because it’s part of who they are.”

— Dan Lichtman, Owner

AEPS Electric is a 23‑year‑old, licensed New Jersey electrical contractor specializing in commercial and industrial solar. We’re looking for a working Site Supervisor to lead our second crew—someone who takes pride in craftsmanship, knows how to lead people, and wants to grow with a tight, experienced team.

This is a hands‑on leadership role, not a clipboard‑only position. You’ll be working in the field while supervising a small crew on large, interesting projects.

• 11 field electricians, 4 office staff
• Project Manager and Field Supervisor both have 20+ years with the company
• PM is a former Field Supervisor—understands the field and supports crews
• Tight‑knit group that encourages learning, growth, and accountability
• Big projects with small crews = variety, challenge, and pride in the work
• Changing job sites keep the work interesting and engaging

• Supervise and work alongside a crew of 2–5 electricians
• Lead commercial and industrial solar installations
• Ensure all work complies with NEC and OSHA standards
• Read and interpret blueprints, schematics, and construction drawings
• Train and mentor crew members to meet AEPS Electric’s standards
• Coordinate with the Project Manager to keep projects safe, efficient, and on schedule
• Set the tone on‑site through professionalism, safety, and quality workmanship

• Commercial / Industrial electrical experience required
• NJ Licensed Journeyman preferred
• Strong working knowledge of NEC
• OSHA certification preferred (company will help obtain if needed)
• Proven leadership and communication skills
  
  Comfortable working at heights and on rooftops
• Proficient with electrical hand and power tools
• Valid driver’s license and clean background required
• A leader who isn’t afraid to work alongside their crew

• Crews help choose start times based on daylight and season
  • Summer: as early as 6:30 AM
  • Winter: as late as 8:00 AM
• Typically 8‑hour workdays, though hours may vary by project
• Overnight, nights, and weekends as needed

• $35/hour, negotiable based on experience
• 401(k) with 4% company match
• Health insurance (40% paid by employer)
• Paid Time Off (PTO)
• Company‑provided phone, shirts, sweatshirts
• Hard hats, safety glasses, and required PPE provided

We don’t micromanage. We trust experienced leaders, support our crews, and believe good work speaks for itself. If you want to lead a crew, work on meaningful projects, and be part of a company where people actually stay—this is the place.
