Meet the leadership, project and service teams behind TDR Electric — certified master electricians, estimators and coordinators with a shared belief that empowerment drives success.

Our Team

Where empowerment
drives success.

Decentralized leadership is more than a buzzword at TDR Electric — it's how we run projects. Our forepersons, project managers and coordinators are trusted to make decisions in the field, backed by leadership with decades of combined experience across commercial, multifamily and EV infrastructure work.

Many of our leaders have been with us since the early days, advancing through the ranks. That continuity means the people quoting your project are connected to the people building it — and accountable to both.

  • Certified Master Electricians (CME) and FSRs in leadership
  • Lean management and Integrated Project Delivery expertise
  • In-house HR, estimating and project coordination
  • Leaders promoted from within, not hired around the team
