This seat is filled
We are hiring a Texas Master Electrician to hold our license of record and lead the technical standard the crew runs to. This is a supervision and standards seat, not a production seat. You provide genuine, documented oversight: permits, install reviews, ride-alongs, and field training, and you sign off on work you would put your own name behind.
It runs part-time, 15 to 20 flexible hours a week, W-2, with mileage reimbursed. You set the bar the journeymen, wiremen, and apprentices work to, backed by documented systems and a veteran-owned company that runs straight with its people.
What you will do
- Serve as the License Holder of Record and keep the company operating to Texas code.
- Pull and manage permits and coordinate inspections.
- Set installation standards and review completed work for quality and safety.
- Provide documented supervision: install reviews, ride-alongs, and field training for the crew.
- Set pricing standards and hiring bars for the electrical crew.
What you need
License required
Texas Master Electrician license (TDLR)
This role includes serving as our License Holder of Record. You are the licensed authority the company operates under.
- Current Texas Master Electrician license in good standing (TDLR).
- Willingness to serve as the company License Holder of Record.
- Years of hands-on residential and light commercial experience.
- Clean driving record and the discipline to run a job right.
- A teacher's mindset. You raise the people around you.
Pay
$35 to $38 per hour
- Part-time, 15 to 20 flexible hours per week
- W-2 employee, not a 1099 contractor
- Mileage reimbursed
Hourly W-2 rate set by experience. This is a supervision and standards seat, not a production seat.
Benefits
- Take-home van for lead roles
- Paid training
- Veteran-friendly employer
What a week looks like
- Review the crew's open jobs and set the priorities and the standard.
- Handle permits and inspections, and answer code questions from the field.
- Run install reviews and ride-alongs on the work that needs a licensed eye.
- Walk finished work, sign off on what meets code, and coach the crew.
Who thrives here
- You want to own the technical standard a crew runs to, not just lend a license to a name on a form.
- You teach. You would rather raise a crew's standard than be the only one who can do the work.
- You read code for keeps and you run a job tight.
Do not apply if
- You want to sign off on other people's work and clock out. This seat carries real, documented supervision.
- You are not comfortable being the licensed authority the company operates under.
Tools, van, and pay
Lead roles get a take-home company van, stocked and maintained. We buy the power tools, the meters, and the material. You bring your own hand tools, the way any tradesman does.
Pay grows as you add licenses and take on more responsibility. Under Wattsmith Performance Pay, commission tiers rise as you advance through the career ladder, so the same day of work pays more at every rung. We would rather pay to keep a good electrician than train a new one.
