  • Identify and resolve electrical, mechanical, and controls-related issues.
  • Conduct scheduled preventative maintenance on chillers, cooling towers, pumps, boilers, and supporting equipment.
  • Interpret blueprints, wiring diagrams, and control schematics.
  • Keep accurate, timely documentation of all service work, repairs, and recommendations.
  • Communicate clearly with customers about system conditions, findings, and next steps.
  • Adhere to all safety requirements, EPA standards, and internal company policies.
  • Provide guidance and mentorship to apprentices and junior technicians when applicable.

Required Qualifications

  • Active TDLR HVAC Journeyman License (Texas).
  • EPA 608 Universal Certification.
  • 5 or more years of commercial HVAC experience with significant exposure to heavy chiller systems.
  • Demonstrated experience with BAS/DDC controls platforms.
  • Strong electrical troubleshooting capability across both low and high voltage systems.
  • Comfortable working independently with limited oversight.
  • Valid Texas driver's license in good standing.
  • Ability to lift 50 lbs and operate in mechanical rooms, rooftops, and confined spaces.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Factory certifications or formal training on major chiller manufacturers.
  • Hands-on controls programming or commissioning background.
  • Prior experience in hospitals, industrial plants, or large-scale commercial buildings.

What We Offer

  • Pay based on experience and qualifications up to $45/hr.
  • Company vehicle, tools, and field technology provided.
  • Health, dental, vision, and retirement benefits.
  • PTO and paid company holidays.
  • Continued training and advancement opportunities.
