Engineering Electronics Technician
100% Travel

System One is seeking traveling Engineering Electronics Technicians to support site preparation for contractor installation of racks, ranging from wall mount racks to multiple racks per site at FAA sites. This is a great opportunity to join a respected government contractor in the construction and engineering services sector!

Important Details:
  • 6 months contract opportunity to start (most likely will be temp-to-hire; depends on performance and work load)

  • Pay rate up to $35/hr. Salary will be commensurate with experience. Additional H&W (Health & Wellness ) rate of $4.93/hr (paid in addition to hourly pay rate for the 1st 40 hours worked each week)

  • Work schedule: Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM – 4:00 PM (approximately)

  • Travel costs are reimbursed at the government rate (GSA) based on the assigned duty location (project location).

Our field staff are deployed for weeks at a time. These are 100% travel positions. Employees are reimbursed for all travel expenses, including weekends, at GSA rates.

  • Only working time (including travel time) is compensable on this contract. Our intent is to have minimal downtime, but we do schedule opportunities for individuals to return home every six weeks on average for around a week. Given that there is ample overtime (10 - 20% is expected) during deployments, the total hours work typically is more than enough to cover any non-elective downtime.

  • Weekly pay
