The Basics
How long have you been at City Light? March 2025
Tell us about your role. As an ironworker, I work with metal materials in a variety of ways. Sometimes that’s in the Steel Shop welding and cleaning metal or climbing electrical towers to make critical repairs. There are many different types of electrical towers that make up our grid, and it’s my job to make sure they remain structurally sound. This can involve installing additional steel, welding, drilling, or bolting on brackets and other structural components.
