About the Role
Farmers Electric Design & Construction is hiring an E6 Limited Energy Electrician holding a current Washington State EL06 certificate to install and service low-voltage systems across the Puget Sound from our Bothell shop. Fire alarm and life safety, access control and intercom, intrusion and security alarms, video surveillance — the systems that protect buildings and the people in them.
