MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
JOSHUA PISANO
​
Say hello to Josh Pisano, a dedicated member of Plattekill Fire Department for the past six years. Josh currently serves as a Lieutenant, bringing steady leadership, sharp skills, and a calm presence to every scene.
When he’s not responding to calls, Josh works full-time as a Field Equipment Engineer for the MTA - Metro North Railroad, helping to keep one of the busiest transit systems running smoothly.
Around the firehouse, Josh is known not only for his commitment to the job but also for his passion for music — don’t be surprised if you catch him singing a tune in passing. 🎶
Most recently, Josh took the lead on spearheading major interior upgrades at Station Two, helping to improve the space for all of our members. He also initiated a new improved inventory system for equipment and items for our stations. His initiative and follow-through are just a few of the reasons we’re proud to have him as part of our team.
Thank you, LT Pisano, for everything you bring to Plattekill Fire — on scene, on the job, and yes, even on the mic! 🚒🔥
