YOUR LIFE AS A LEAD IRRIGATION TECHNICIAN

This lawn care position typically works Monday through Friday from 8 am to 5:30 pm with occasional weekend work, holidays, and on-call emergencies. Additionally, due to the seasonal nature of the work, some peak load situations may arise.

As a Lead Irrigation Technician, you ensure both commercial property and homeowner's association (HOA) irrigation systems are operating at peak efficiency. To do this, you safely excavate necessary holes to troubleshoot and repair pipes, fittings, sprinkler heads, electrical components, and central control computers. You also install timers, piping, and valves as well as perform general system maintenance and correct over or underwatering. As needed, you locate, excavate, repair, and replace damaged or malfunctioning equipment. To guarantee a properly functioning system, you perform backflow tests, system start-ups, and part evaluations. With each job, you test irrigation systems to make sure they are properly functioning, record detailed inspections, and complete necessary paperwork.

Additionally, you take responsibility for maintaining inventory including the purchasing of repair parts. To stay organized, you keep your work vehicle and equipment clean. You are proactive in diagnosing and repairing any issues, thinking critically to solve problems, and completing repairs with minimal impact on landscapes. Our clients, work-site partners, and team enjoy working with you due to your accurate, complete, and timely work.
