Essential Duties and Responsibilities

Training Delivery & Certification

• Deliver installation training and certification curriculum in the field across all certification levels, using the standards, materials, and delivery model established by the Mobile Installation Partnerships Training Team.

• Conduct hands-on certification assessments and skills evaluations, verifying that technicians can install to Protech quality, safety, and customer-experience standards before they are released to work independently.

• Certify Protech's existing ADAS and ADM technicians into the mobile installation program, and onboard and certify new installation technician talent as the segment scales.

• Document assessment results, certification status, and recertification activity accurately and on time in the LMS and related tracking tools.

• Deliver re-certification and refresher training as hardware, vehicle platforms, and installation procedures change.

Field Coaching & Quality Support

• Provide on-site coaching and side-by-side support to technicians and installation partners during live installs, correcting practices in the moment and reinforcing standard procedures.

• Observe installs across the full range of fleet vehicles—passenger vehicles, tractor trailers, heavy equipment, and specialty platforms—and identify skill gaps, recurring errors, and safety concerns.

• Escalate quality trends, procedural gaps, and content inaccuracies to the training team, and support corrective training where field performance indicates a need.

• Support new-market and new-partner launches by conducting initial trial installs and delivering the training required to have a certified, ready workforce in place ahead of demand.

Content Support & Field Procedure Capture

• Capture field procedures during new installs to include proper wire routing, hardware/sensor/ camera mounting locations, and vehicle-specific variations and submit source material to the Training Team for inclusion in installation job aids and SOPs.

• Pilot and provide feedback on new job aids, quick-reference guides, and training content before final release.

• Help maintain consistency of delivery across markets and partners by using the current, version-controlled versions of all training materials.

Partnership & General

• Serve as a day-to-day training point of contact for installation partners and technicians in assigned markets.

• Champion a culture of safety, quality, and technical excellence within the mobile installation workforce.

• Background in advanced vehicle diagnostics, telematics, or electronic/aftermarket hardware installation strongly preferred.

• Experience training, mentoring, or coaching technicians, whether formally as a trainer or informally as a lead technician; experience delivering structured curriculum is highly valued.
