About the Role

Are you tired of driving a service van across the state, dealing with unpredictable schedules, and chasing residential commission targets?

We are seeking a seasoned, dependable HVAC Technician with at least 5 years of hands-on commercial or institutional experience to join our dedicated campus maintenance team. In this role, you won't be managing random home service calls—you will be responsible for servicing, maintaining, and troubleshooting systems on a single, permanent campus.

If you take pride in following clear SOPs, working with a steady crew, and keeping critical facilities running smoothly year-round, this is the long-term opportunity for you.

Key Responsibilities

Maintain, troubleshoot, and repair campus-wide HVAC equipment, including packaged rooftop units, chillers, split systems, heat pumps, air handlers, and control systems.
Perform routine preventive maintenance according to standard operating procedures (SOPs) and manufacturer specifications.
Complete daily work orders, digital inspection logs, and maintenance tracking accurately and on time.
Respond promptly to temperature adjustments, service calls, and critical facility issues across campus.
Adhere strictly to campus safety protocols, Lock-Out/Tag-Out procedures, and environmental compliance standards.
Work collaboratively with our on-site facilities, electrical, and maintenance team members.

Qualifications & Requirements

Experience: Minimum of 5 years of professional experience in commercial, institutional, or large-scale HVAC maintenance.
Certifications: EPA Universal Certification required. (State HVAC license or journey-level credential preferred).
Skills: Strong mechanical aptitude, advanced electrical troubleshooting skills, and fluency with reading wiring schematics and technical manuals.
Work Style: High attention to detail, strong respect for safety protocols, and a proven track record of following step-by-step technical instructions.
Physical Capabilities: Ability to lift 40 lbs, climb ladders, and work comfortably in equipment rooms and rooftop settings.

Why Join Our Team?

No "Windshield Time": Work on one dedicated campus every day—no daily highway driving or living out of a service van.
Predictable Hours: Enjoy a consistent daily schedule and reliable income without chasing seasonal sales metrics.
Work-Life Balance: Minimal on-call rotation with predictable, scheduled campus operations.
Job Stability: Long-term institutional stability in a supportive, safety-first environment.
