Family and Financial Freedom: How Mobile Service Technician Jason Johnson Found Stability at Altec

Jason Johnson, a Mobile Service Technician based out of Birmingham, Alabama, has been with Altec for over seven years.

As a father of four, Jason Johnson knows how important family is when it comes to choosing a career.

After starting out working in Altec’s Birmingham Service Center, Jason transitioned to his current role as an Altec MST. We sat down with Jason to discuss what it means to be a part of Team Altec.

Family Life

Before coming to Altec, Jason worked for a tree care company and a local municipality as a mechanic. When he found out his first daughter was on the way, he knew he had to make a change that would give his family the peace of mind they so desperately needed.

“Before I didn’t have much of an income, we were living paycheck to paycheck; now I have the stability to provide the type of life that my family deserves,” Johnson said.

Jason said that now his family life is different because of the stability they have because of Altec.

Making a Difference 

In addition to the support and improved quality of life he and his family feel as a member of Team Altec, Jason enjoys knowing he is positively impacting his customers.

“I love the fact that at the end of the day, they call me directly whenever they have an issue, and I do all I can to help them. If I can’t help them over the phone, I’m on my way to them,” Jason said.

Beyond his day-to-day work as a mobile service technician, he looks forward to future opportunities at Altec.

“Due to the things that I’ve learned throughout the years, I know that one day I’ll be able to move up and be able to contribute in other ways than I do right now with Altec,” he said.
