That’s really cool! When you do repair work for a generator I assume you’re not just going to replace the generator, so I guess you have to get in there and do component level repairs? That seems really cool. I would imagine some of the technicians would have the skills of both a mechanic and an electrician for some of those jobs?

Right, I'm fully licensed as an electrician but I also have to repair/maintain natural gas/propane/diesel engines. There's also increasing amounts of computer/network knowledge needed for new controllers and setting up network monitoring. Overall it's a job that really benefits from a lot of different skill sets, and has a lot of day to day variety in the work I'm doing.
