Overview


Shermco Industries is seeking a full-time entry-level or experienced Field Electrical Engineer to join our team for Brownfield projects at customer sites.

The Field Engineer will perform testing, troubleshooting, and design work on electrical power delivery systems (switchgear, relays, motor controls, low voltage, medium voltage). You will be working at our customer sites and traveling within MS, GA, and AL. Ideally, we are seeking someone in Birmingham, AL or Atlanta, GA or Meridian, MS. Most of our clients are within 250 miles of these cities. A company vehicle, gas, credit card and per diem allowance are provided.
