About The Role

Airgas is a global leader in industrial gases, and our Field Service Technicians play a vital role in keeping our customers' beverage and gas systems running reliably. While our route drivers focus on delivering and refilling CO2 microbulk tanks, Field Service Technicians are responsible for installing, maintaining, repairing, and removing the bulk storage tanks and beverage carbonation systems on-site.

This is not a delivery route driving job. Although technicians operate commercial service vehicles such as F-550s or box trucks requiring a Class A or B CDL, driving is primarily how technicians travel between customer jobs across a broad geographic territory.

Key Responsibilities

• Installation & Mechanics: Perform hands-on mechanical work using hand tools, power tools, and drills to run lines, install centralized Microbulk cryogenic tanks, set up gas monitors, and mount control boxes at commercial customer sites like restaurants, bars, and stadiums. Note: The company provides all necessary tools, drills, and lines.
• Maintenance & Emergency Service: Respond to service calls, troubleshoot gas line or tank issues, perform system inspections, and replace faulty equipment to minimize downtime for the customer.
• Physical Work: The job involves physical tasks such as maneuverability on ladders, running tubing through ceiling tiles, drilling into structures, and using specialized hand trucks to maneuver large stainless steel tanks.
• Autonomy & Schedule Flexibility: Technicians operate with a high degree of independence. You must be self-motivated, trainable, adaptable to shifting daily schedules, and willing to travel (including occasional overnight stays depending on the territory needs).
