Miller Electrical is looking for a skilled, well-rounded Journeyman Electrician to join our Electrical Service division. This is not a commercial or industrial construction role — it is a service position, and that distinction matters. Our service electricians handle a high volume of diverse residential and light commercial calls every day, working independently to diagnose problems, complete repairs and installs, and deliver an exceptional experience to our customers.

The right candidate brings high energy, a genuine passion for the trade, strong diagnostic instincts, and the people skills to represent Miller with pride in every home and business they enter. If you thrive on variety, take ownership of your work from start to finish, and love the challenge of troubleshooting — this role is built for you.

WHAT MAKES SERVICE DIFFERENT

Service work is fast-paced and varied — no two days are the same, and no two jobs are identical.
You own the job from start to finish: diagnose it, fix it, and leave the customer better off than you found them.
You'll build real relationships with repeat customers across a wide territory.
Strong diagnostic and communication skills are valued as much as technical ability.
Service electricians at Miller are trusted to make decisions independently in the field — it's a role for self-starters who take pride in doing things right.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Respond to a variety of residential and light commercial service calls, performing same-day diagnosis, repair, and installation work across a diverse customer base.
Troubleshoot electrical systems quickly and accurately — service work demands sharp diagnostic thinking, not just execution from a set of plans.
Install, repair, and upgrade panels, circuits, outlets, switches, fixtures, ceiling fans, EV chargers, generators, and other common service items.
Inspect electrical systems for code compliance (2023 NEC), safety hazards, and deficiencies — and clearly communicate findings and options to the customer.
Read wiring diagrams, schematics, and as-built drawings to support diagnosis and repair on existing systems.
Use test equipment including ohmmeters, voltmeters, and circuit tracers to safely identify faults and verify repairs.
Connect wires to circuit breakers, transformers, and other components with precision and care for finished-space work.
Place conduit in walls, ceilings, and concealed areas as needed for new circuits and service upgrades.
Install ground leads and connect power cables to motors and equipment in light commercial settings.
Represent Miller professionally in every customer interaction — explain work clearly, answer questions confidently, and leave the job site clean.
Document work completed, materials used, and time accurately in company systems for every job.
Maintain your company vehicle, tools, and equipment in clean, safe, and ready condition at all times.
Participate in on-call rotation for after-hours emergency service.

QUALIFICATIONS

MN Class A Journeyman Electrical license, or a directly reciprocating state Journeyman's Class A license.
Valid driver's license with a clean Motor Vehicle Record (MVR) — required to operate a company vehicle.
Strong knowledge of 2023 NEC code requirements with the ability to apply them in the field.
Proven ability to independently diagnose and solve a wide range of electrical problems — service work requires thinking on your feet, not just following a plan.
Able to read blueprints, wiring diagrams, and schematics.
Proficient with hand tools and test equipment including conduit benders, electrical meters, ohmmeters, and voltmeters.
Strong customer service and communication skills — you will be the face of Miller in every home and business you enter.
Self-motivated, organized, and able to manage a full day of service calls with minimal supervision.
Able to lift and carry up to 50 lbs, work in confined spaces, and perform physically demanding tasks.
Microsoft Office and basic computer proficiency
