Position Overview

We are hiring an Air Sealing & Insulation Technician to perform hands‑on weatherization work in homes across our service area. This role involves physical, hands‑on work—often in hot attics or tight crawl spaces—so comfort working in those conditions is essential. The technician will maintain high quality, verify results with blower‑door tests, and mentor new technicians as the company grows.

• Participate in daily on‑site activities, ensuring work progresses according to schedule and the daily plan.

Owning Your Own Work

• Check work against company, program, and code standards before leaving each job—own the quality installed.
• Catch and correct deficiencies on the spot rather than leaving them for callbacks.
• Document completed work with photos, readings, and required sign‑offs for every job.

Crew Leadership & Coordination

• Act as crew leader when required, training and mentoring new technicians on technique, safety, and quality.
• Coordinate with project managers, subcontractors, and team members to ensure alignment and efficiency.
• Resolve on‑site issues promptly and efficiently, minimizing disruptions to the schedule.

Administration

• Invoice completed jobs accurately in Oracle NetSuite, ensuring billing matches the work performed.

Qualifications

Must‑Have

• Hands‑on experience in air sealing, insulation, weatherization, or building performance work.

• Takes pride in craft and stands behind quality of own work.
• Valid NJ driver’s license with a clean driving record.
• Reliable, organized, and comfortable with digital documentation (photos, readings, logs).

Nice‑to‑Have

• BPI Building Analyst, Envelope Professional, or comparable certification.
• Familiarity with PSEG or other NJ utility weatherization program requirements and inspection criteria.
• Experience invoicing or job‑tracking in Oracle NetSuite (or a comparable ERP/CRM).
• OSHA 10/30, lead‑safe (RRP), or other relevant safety credentials.
• Bilingual (English/Spanish) a plus for crew leadership.

• Paid training, certifications, and a clear path into lead and supervisory roles.
• Steady, year‑round pipeline of utility‑program and residential work.
