Job Description

Aviation Electrical Inspector (Low-Medium Voltage)

Location: Austin, Texas (Onsite)

Industry: Aviation / Construction

Area of Specialty: Terminal Expansion / Utility Infrastructure / Airfield Electrical Systems

Austin-Bergstrom International Airport is growing at an incredible pace, and we’re looking for a sharp Electrical Inspector to ensure our power infrastructure is world-class.

We aren’t just pulling wire; we are building the backbone of Central Texas’s primary gateway. This role puts you at the center of multi-million dollar terminal and utility expansions where precision and safety are the top priorities.

What You’ll Do

• Monitor & Inspect: Oversee the installation of low-to-medium voltage electrical systems (up to 35kV), including switchgear, transformers, motor control centers, and backup power systems to ensure 100% compliance with NEC and project specifications.
• Quality Assurance: Conduct rigorous field inspections and witness Acceptance Testing (NETA) to verify the integrity of cable pulls, terminations, and grounding systems.
• Safety Oversight: Enforce strict adherence to NFPA 70E standards and airport-specific safety protocols, ensuring all work is performed in a manner that protects the traveling public and airport operations.
• Documentation: Review shop drawings, submittals, and RFI responses. Maintain detailed daily logs and "as-built" records to track progress and identify potential deviations before they become costly delays.
• Collaborate: Serve as the technical bridge between the General Contractor, Engineering teams, and Airport Operations to ensure seamless integration of new electrical assets.

What You’ll Bring

• Experience: 10+ years of experience in electrical inspection or master-level electrical work, specifically on large-scale airport projects (Aviation experience is required).
• Technical Knowledge: Deep expertise in NFPA 70 (NEC) and NFPA 70E standards. Experience with medium voltage distribution and SCADA systems is highly preferred.
• Certifications: Valid Journeyman or Master Electrician license, or ICC/IAEI Electrical Inspector certification. OSHA 30-Hour Construction Safety certification is required.
• Adaptability: The ability to navigate a high-security, 24/7 operational environment and communicate effectively with diverse stakeholders.
• Precision: An "eagle eye" for detail and a commitment to ensuring that Austin’s infrastructure is built to last.

Why Join Us? Austin is the fastest-growing city in America, and our airport is the heartbeat of that growth. This is your chance to be a part of a massive program while enjoying the incredible culture of the Silicon Hills.
