Good Morning,

I am writing to you with regards to the Tower Climber position that I saw advertised on the Indeed.com website.

I have recently relocated to the Austin, TX area and eager to work with your company. I have more than 11 years of full-time work experience as a Surveillance and Optics Technician installation with direct experience in Audio Visual, CATV, CCTV, Security, Electrical Systems in addition to low-voltage installation and climbing communication towers . I have a successful track record of problem solving, communication, and decision making skills. I am confident that I am the best candidate for your vacancy as I am quick learner and excited to learn about the Solar installing industry.

My past positions of electronics and surveillance technician installation experience at Trax previously NewTec, and Casino Apache have taught me the significance of clear communication and friendly face-to-face service. In my last role, I climbed the communication towers to install microwave equipment, antennas and set up various types of audio visual systems to collect data for clients. I have received recognition from my managers and supervisors for my reliability and contribution towards my department’s success.

I am a highly professional, detailed, and results orientated team player who is experienced in working with various cables and cameras.
