Job description

• › Junior Field Service Technician – Easton, MD

As a Junior Service Technician at Delval Equipment, you’ll build the technical skills and hands‑on experience needed to become an expert in commercial and industrial boiler systems. Working alongside experienced technicians, you’ll learn how to maintain, troubleshoot, repair, and optimize the equipment that keeps critical facilities operating every day.

This role is ideal for someone with at least a year of hands‑on experience in a mechanical, electrical, HVAC, or related technical trade who is ready to take the next step and develop expertise in a highly specialized field. Previous boiler experience is helpful, but not required. We’ll provide the training, mentorship, and field experience needed to build your knowledge and take on increasingly complex work as your skills develop.

Why Delval?

Learn a Skilled Trade. You’ll receive hands‑on training in boiler systems, burners, controls, combustion, electrical troubleshooting, and mechanical systems while learning directly from experienced technicians in the field.

Become an Expert. You’ll develop advanced skills in boiler diagnostics, system optimization, and lifecycle support, working alongside some of the most experienced boiler professionals in the industry.

Solve Real Problems. Every customer system is different. The work is layered, technical, and genuinely challenging, whether you’re in the field, sales, or operations, and no two solutions look the same.

Build a Long‑Term Career. Delval invests heavily in technician development through structured in‑house training, manufacturer training programs, and hands‑on mentorship from experienced professionals.

Work With a Team That Has Your Back. Our team is supported by world‑class technical expertise, responsive leadership, and a culture built around teamwork, reliability, and doing things the right way.

About Delval Equipment: Delval Equipment has spent more than 70 years helping customers design, install, and operate industrial and commercial boiler systems. Our industry‑leading technical expertise, combined with deep knowledge of our customers’ systems, has allowed us to build a reputation as a trusted partner in keeping mission‑critical systems operating safely, reliably, and efficiently over the full lifecycle of their equipment. We operate out of five offices — Valley Forge, Lebanon, and Washington, PA, and Sykesville and Easton, MD — serving customers across Northeast and Mid‑Atlantic.

What You’ll Do

• Work alongside experienced Service Technicians to maintain, troubleshoot, and repair commercial and industrial boiler systems, burners, controls, and related equipment.


• Learn to perform boiler start‑ups, preventive maintenance, inspections, testing, and repairs.


• Develop mechanical, electrical, combustion, and controls troubleshooting skills through hands‑on field experience and formal training.


• Assist with the installation, maintenance, and upgrade of burners, combustion controls, and related boiler equipment.


• Learn to read and interpret electrical schematics, technical drawings, equipment manuals, and manufacturer documentation.


• Help identify equipment problems and develop effective solutions under the guidance of experienced technicians.


• Perform preventive maintenance and system optimization work to improve equipment reliability and efficiency.


• Follow established safety procedures while working in industrial environments, including confined spaces, elevated work areas, and high‑temperature conditions.


• Complete work orders, service documentation, and reporting accurately using company software and mobile devices.


• Communicate professionally with customers and collaborate with technicians, subcontractors, and internal teams.


• Travel daily to customer sites throughout the region, with occasional overnight travel as needed.


• As experience and capabilities develop, take on increasingly independent service responsibilities and participate in the on‑call rotation.

What You’ll Bring

• Minimum 1+ year of hands‑on experience in commercial or industrial HVAC, electrical, mechanical maintenance, boiler service, controls, plumbing/pipefitting, industrial equipment, or a related technical trade.


• Boiler, burner, or combustion experience is preferred, but not required.


• Strong mechanical and/or electrical aptitude with an interest in developing expertise in commercial and industrial boiler systems.


• Basic understanding of mechanical and electrical systems and the ability to use common hand and power tools.


• Strong problem‑solving skills and a willingness to learn how complex equipment and systems operate.


• Ability to read and interpret basic technical instructions, diagrams, or equipment documentation.


• Commitment to safe work practices in industrial environments.


• Strong communication skills and willingness to ask questions and learn from experienced technicians.


• Dependability, initiative, and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team.


• Valid driver’s license and willingness to travel throughout the region.


• Ability to meet the physical demands of the role, including lifting equipment and working in confined or elevated spaces.
