WHAT YOU NEED

• High school diploma or equivalent; trade school, military equivalent (MOS 12P, 91D, or comparable), or manufacturer training preferred.

• Three or more years of progressively responsible work on diesel generators, preferably mid-size portable units (15–150 kW).

WHAT WE'D ALSO LIKE TO SEE

• Manufacturer certification (Caterpillar, Cummins, Kohler, Generac, or equivalent).

• HAZWOPER 24-Hour for fuel handling.

• Post-disaster work experience (Yutu, Mangkhut, Soudelor, or comparable Pacific theater event).

• Familiarity with shelter operations, FEMA Public Assistance, or military post-disaster operations.

WHAT WE OFFER

• Competitive hourly wage with overtime per CNMI Wage and Hour Act (4 CMC §9221).
