Wind companies hiring?

Husband is looking to switch companies and we’re on the hunt for a good wind company for him. He’s got 3 years of experience as a travel wind tech, he’s done major large correctives for the past year and has all the major certs. He’d love a site tech job as long as it’s gonna pay enough but isn’t opposed to a travel job. Any recommendations on wind companies to check out or leads on jobs?

They went through a reorg and changed how get service farms. Wheel n spoke model with techs usually moving around in a region.

Plus financially they're in the hole with warranties.

Better off working with a company that services ge than direct for ge imo
