Business Installation Technician

At ALLO, we believe people are our biggest asset. Our team brings the ALLO mission to life because as local members of each community, we live, work, play, and volunteer right here with you. We're passionate about being involved and contributing to the success and progress of each of our GIG Communities.
We pursue these passions because ALLO leaders have created a workplace where folks are valued, ideas are heard, and leaders and teammates show up for each other at work and in life.
Here's the deal: Not all heroes wear capes, at ALLO they were green and they install fiber-optic service. We are looking for individuals we can invest in. We have a full benefits package that can be compared to the best in the business. Our customers are downright euphoric when the ALLO van pulls up. And there's no hype involved, our technicians prove that ALLO service is more than just light-speed technology.
Installation technicians juggle new challenges, new environments, and new people every single day and they do it with a smile knowing they're setting the stage for a customer's entire ALLO experience. So when you hear whispers in a crowd, when you notice stares on the street, it's not a bird, it's not a plane, it's ALLO fiber and we're truly here to save the day. Knowledge and experience are essential, we need applicants with real construction experience, but character is just as important. We look for those who have a natural instinct for our core values: Honest, Local, Exceptional, and Hassle-Free. Each day at ALLO is a new experience, learning opportunity, and challenge. If you can see yourself fitting into this growing team, let's talk about GIG things together. Consider this your invitation to grow with Allo and be a part of something amazing in your community.
