Full Job Description

Job Title: Field Associate, Lighting Inspection

EXO Inc. has been protecting public infrastructure across the U.S. since 2009. Without consistent maintenance and quality assurance, critical assets face a growing risk of failure over time. EXO delivers engineering, inspection, and remediation services for lighting poles, transmission towers, and other infrastructure exposed to ongoing wear from usage, aging, and environmental conditions.

With deep expertise in vertical infrastructure, EXO builds on years of engineering design and fabrication experience across utilities, telecom, transportation, and retail sectors. This foundation supports a comprehensive inspection and asset management approach that addresses both new installations and aging structures requiring immediate attention.

Recognizing that full replacement is often impractical due to cost and safety constraints, EXO developed its “Ex-Tend” approach to manage assets throughout their entire life cycle. From initial quality assurance to ongoing inspection and targeted repairs, this method is designed to extend service life and improve reliability. Supported by data-driven insights, EXO helps clients monitor asset conditions and make informed, strategic decisions.

Position Overview: This position offers the opportunity to build a long-term, rewarding career with a fast-growing company specializing in the inspection and maintenance of retail and commercial lighting structures across the country. This is a travel-intensive role (up to 90%+), supporting inspection projects at retail centers, parking lots, and commercial properties.

The company provides paid training in nondestructive testing (NDT) methods and remediation techniques for lighting structures such as steel light poles. Through a combination of classroom instruction and hands-on field experience, technicians gain industry-recognized skills that lead to increased compensation and career advancement.

The Field Associate is responsible for performing detailed inspections, assessing structural integrity, and executing remediation work on lighting assets primarily located in retail environments. This role requires a high level of independence, attention to detail, and a willingness to travel extensively.

Key Responsibilities:

Retail Lighting Inspections – Conduct nondestructive testing (NDT) on lighting structures located at retail centers, shopping plazas, and commercial properties. Perform visual (VT) and magnetic particle (MT) inspections of welds and structural components.
Structural Assessment – Evaluate the condition and integrity of light poles and related structures, identifying issues such as corrosion, cracking, material fatigue, foundation deterioration, or environmental damage.
Asset Remediation – Perform field-based corrective actions following inspections, including removing grout, drilling weep holes, cleaning surfaces, and applying protective coatings or paint to extend asset life.
Travel & Field Work – Travel extensively (90%+ of the time) to various job sites nationwide. Work outdoors in diverse environments including active retail locations, often requiring flexibility in scheduling and extended time away from home.
Safety Compliance – Adhere to all safety standards and protocols. Identify hazards at retail sites and recommend appropriate repair or replacement actions to ensure public and property safety.
Documentation & Reporting – Accurately capture inspection data using digital applications, including detailed notes and photographs. Prepare clear reports outlining findings, risk levels, and recommended corrective actions.
Collaboration – Communicate inspection results with internal teams, project managers, and clients to support timely and effective remediation efforts.

Continuous Improvement – Provide feedback to improve inspection processes, tools, and methodologies, contributing to operational efficiency and service quality.
