Lead Lighting Technician

This Is Not a Seasonal Gig

Humbug Lighting completed our first full season in 2025 with tremendous success — and 2026 is about growth.

We are expanding beyond holiday lighting into a full-service permanent, landscape, and event lighting company, and we’re looking for a proven Lead Technician to grow with us.

This is a year-round leadership opportunity that begins part-time and ramps to full-time in 2026, with a clear path to Territory Operations Manager for the right person.

🚨 IMPORTANT — READ FIRST

This role REQUIRES prior professional experience working on multi-story roofs.

We are not looking for candidates who think they’re comfortable on roofs or ladders.

We are looking for candidates who have:

Worked professionally on multi-story residential or commercial roofs

Regularly used extension ladders and followed ladder safety protocols

A working understanding of roof safety, pitch, footing, and situational awareness

Remained productive and calm at height — as part of a job, not a hobby

If you do not have real, on-the-job roof experience, this role will not be a fit.
