• Maryland Master HVAC - or has held a Journeyman license for at least 3 years and is eligible to sit for the master exam. We will pay for the exam.

• Experience commissioning equipment, performing startups, and supporting replacement projects in the field.
• Demonstrated ability to mentor and develop less experienced technicians.

• Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record.
• Willingness to participate in an on-call rotation (only once every 6-8 weeks!)
• Professional communication skills, both in the field and in written service documentation.

Bonus Points For

• Experience with building automation systems such as Niagara, Metasys, Tracer, or Desigo.
• Critical-environment experience supporting healthcare facilities, data centers, laboratories, or other mission-critical operations.
• OEM training from Trane, Carrier, York/JCI, Daikin, or similar manufacturers.
• Experience scoping and estimating repair, retrofit, and replacement projects.
• NATE, A2L, or other industry certifications.
