With minimal supervision, you will professionally maintain the electrical systems associated with Anchorage International Airport (ANC). Duties encompass a wide range, including airfield lighting systems, exterior building lighting, street lighting, lift stations, pilot‑controlled gates, and other electrical controls. The airport environment is dynamic, offering both excitement and challenges for electricians. The combination of advanced systems and constantly changing conditions demands a high level of skill.

Responsibilities also include the maintenance and repair of all electrical systems across the airfield and complex, regardless of weather conditions. Effective communication on both company and air‑to‑ground radios is essential. Additional tasks involve equipment cleaning and maintenance, fixture rebuilding, locates for construction projects, testing backup generators, and airfield lighting inspections.

As part of the AFM crew, you will inspect and repair lighting systems in various conditions. This could involve replacing light fixtures during whiteout conditions on runways and taxiways during snow events, repairing fixtures by boat on the lake, or training for emergencies. These scenarios illustrate the diverse challenges faced daily, where routine maintenance keeps Alaska's infrastructure operational.

TED STEVENS ANCHORAGE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT is located west of Anchorage, Alaska. While we strive to create a collaborative team work environment, the ANC environment can be fast‑paced with frequently changing conditions. Priorities change in an instant, and a successful applicant will change with them. You can expect a dynamic and fluid work environment that is both challenging and rewarding in a multicultural setting.

Your experience here will be fun, enlightening, and will broaden your knowledge, skills, and experience.
