Meet Justyce: Day Wireless Systems’ Upfitter and Van Operator

Justyce, an experienced upfitter at Day Wireless Systems, operates this cutting-edge mobile workshop. His journey into the world of upfitting is as unique as the van itself:

  • Background: Previously worked at McMinnville airport 
  • Entry into upfitting: Found the job listing on Craigslist and learned on the job
  • Experience: Nearly three years in the upfitting industry


On Getting the Job
“I didn’t really have, wiring (experience), or know anything other than what I did on my own car. I applied, got the interview, and Day Wireless gave me the job. And then I just learned everything as I was going. I’ve been doing it for almost three years now.” 

Is it everything you’ve expected?
“It’s fun because there’s always something different. We do the same thing every day but it’s always in a slightly different way, and then what I find most fun is going on the road and fixing problems, because then you’re having to troubleshoot what’s wrong.” 

Justyce’s Perspective on Mobile Upfitting
Justyce shared his thoughts on the benefits and challenges of mobile upfitting:

  • Variety in work: Each day brings new challenges and slightly different approaches to similar tasks
  • Problem-solving opportunities: Enjoys on-site troubleshooting and finding solutions in the field
  • Flexibility: Comfortable working solo or as part of a team, depending on the job requirements
