We do one thing no other electrical company in Sacramento dares to do. We turn our journeymen into business owners. We do not hire workers. We develop operators. There is a difference and it changes everything.
Modern Edison Electric is Sacramento's only electrical fire safety specialist. We use our proprietary system called the SafeHome Method to identify and permanently eliminate the hidden electrical risks inside aging and historic homes. Our clients trust us with their family's lives. We do not take that lightly.
We just crossed $1 million and are scaling to $10 million in the next 18 months. The journeymen who join now are starting a self development journey - one that builds their ability to create their own income, sharpens their sales and marketing skills, and puts them on a path to running their own premium profitable business in 40 hours a week or less. Without working themselves into the ground to get there.
We have built an entire framework and training system around your success as an independent operator. Administrative scheduling/communications support, documentation systems, tools & resources, sales coaching, marketing and leads development, social media strategies - it is all there from day one. The only question is how fast you are willing to evolve.
The candidate who thrives here is wired differently than most. They do not need to be told what to do. They see a system, they learn it, they run it. They find ownership energizing, not overwhelming. They want their work ethic and skill set to actually determine what they earn and who they become - not a manager's opinion of them.
If you are looking for hand-holding and predictable days, this is the wrong company. If you are looking for a place where the ceiling is removed, keep reading.
What You Will Do:
Learn and Master the Foundation First Framework - Marketing, Sales, Product delivery, Financial clarity. And also the SafeHome Method - our proprietary system we use to find and eliminate electrical fire risks inside Sacramento's historic homes. Execute high-quality installations that families are counting on. Own lead flow, your close rate, your projects from start to finish, set your own schedule, communicate directly with homeowners and your dedicated administrative assistant, and present your KPI data weekly so the team always knows exactly where we all stand.
What You Will Learn:
Most journeymen spend their entire career getting better at one thing: the work. Here you build an entirely different stack. Meta ads, brand building, sales mastery, premium pricing, objection handling, leadership of your dedicated assistant, project management, financial clarity, P&L statements, customer lifetime value, high performance mindset, networking, and AI tools and automation.
By year four you are not just a better electrician. You are a fully equipped operator ready to launch and scale your own business
What You Will Earn:
- $40-$80/hr based on your production (see compensation structure below)
- 3% project management commission on gross margin once you hit $40k installed per month
- 3% sales commission on gross margin for contracts you personally sell.
-3% additional commission on any upsells or friends and family referral contracts.
- Spiffs for five-star reviews, door hanger contracts, and referral card contracts
- Benefits and development investment that grows with tenure
The Long Game:
Day 1 through 30 is your on-ramp. You learn the system, you run the system, you get enough foundation under your feet to start moving. That is just the beginning.
From there, everything is yours. Sales mastery, marketing, AI and automation, leadership, self-development, financial clarity, networking - the full stack from day one. The four years are not a waiting period. They are the time it takes to truly absorb it, implement it, and become it.
Once a year we leave the job sites behind. The Breakthrough Adventure Retreat brings the entire team together for three days of expert speakers, immersive experiences, and deep dives into the four pillars of the Foundation First Framework - marketing, sales, product delivery, and financial clarity. This is not a company party. It is an investment in who you are becoming.
By year four you are not the same person who applied. You are not just a better electrician. You are the man capable of launching and scaling a business that does ten million dollars. If that is the path you want, we help you get there.
If you want to stay - grow deeper, lead more, earn more, keep becoming more - that door is open too. Indefinitely.
Most companies hire you to do a job. We hire you for the transformation.
This is the place. If you have been waiting for a company that actually invests in who you are becoming - not just what you can produce - you just found it.
Who You Are:
You are a CA licensed journeyman electrician with 5-10 years of residential field experience. You have worked in older homes where the wiring is unpredictable and code calls require real judgment.
You are self-directed. You do not wait to be told what to do.
You are emotionally resilient. You stay level when the job gets hard.
You are growth-oriented. You are actively becoming better, not just maintaining.
And somewhere underneath all of it, you have always known you were built for more than just showing up to someone else's job site. You just needed the right place to prove it.
