Electrical Inspector – Field-Based Role Supporting NYC School Assessments

Schedule: Fieldwork from September through Memorial Day Weekend

Start Date: Includes 3 weeks of paid training

Work Type: 100% Field-Based | Team-Oriented | Seasonal with Return Option

Are you an experienced electrical professional looking to make a meaningful impact in New York City’s public infrastructure? Join a dynamic team of inspectors conducting Building Condition Assessment Surveys (BCAS) for schools across Queens and Brooklyn. This is a hands-on, field-based role where your expertise will directly support the improvement and safety of educational facilities.

What You’ll Do

+ Conduct electrical inspections as part of a 4-person team focused on school building assessments.

+ Perform HVAC and electrical system evaluations using standardized protocols.

+ Use an iPad-based system to document findings—no complex tech required.

+ Travel throughout Queens and Brooklyn during non-peak hours for site visits.

+ Participate in coordination meetings and collaborate with project leads.

+ Follow strict guidelines—no asbestos evaluation is required.

What You Bring

+ 5+ years of electrical inspection and surveying experience.

+ Experience in electrical engineering or related technical field.

+ Ability to read and interpret electrical blueprints and apply electrical codes.

+ Experience with institutional or K–12 projects is highly preferred.

+ Familiarity with NYCHA, BCAS, MEP systems, and construction management is a plus.

Why This Role Stands Out

+ ️ Hands-On Work: 100% field-based—no desk job here.

+ Simple Tech: Easy-to-use iPad system for all documentation.

+ Comprehensive Training: 3 weeks of onboarding to set you up for success.

+ Seasonal Flexibility: Work from fall through spring, with the option to return annually or take summers off for freelance or personal projects.

+ Team Environment: Join one of 15 teams, each made up of 4 inspectors, working together to improve NYC schools.
