Job description

We’re Hiring: Residential HVAC Service Technician – Senior / Lead

Location: Collegeville, PA (Field-Based Role) | Pay Range: $85,000–$110,000+ (Base + Performance Incentives) | Full-Time

Company Overview:

Alpha 1 Heating & Cooling is built around execution, accountability, and field leadership. We don’t carry weak performers, and we don’t lower standards to make people comfortable.

At this level, expectations increase. So does scrutiny.

Senior technicians here influence more than their own calls. Your judgment, communication, preparation, and consistency affect the standard of the entire operation.

A lot of technicians want senior-level pay and authority. Far fewer can consistently perform at the level required to earn and keep it.

If you want real responsibility, real trust, and the ability to lead from the field, keep reading.

Position Summary:

We’re hiring a senior-level Residential HVAC Service Technician who can solve difficult problems, lead in the field, and operate without handholding.

This is a working leadership role — not a title.

You’ll take escalations, handle complex diagnostics, support developing technicians, and help set the standard for how work gets performed across the company.

Some technicians complete calls.

Senior technicians create trust, solve high-level problems consistently, and raise the standard around them.

What You’ll Get:
  • $85,000–$110,000+ total compensation based on performance, execution, and leadership
  • Performance incentives tied to production, accuracy, and job execution — not just sales
  • Expanded field leadership opportunities for technicians who continue to perform
  • Continued training and development opportunities
  • Health Insurance + Retirement Plan
  • Paid Holidays + PTO
What You’ll Do:
  • Run complex service calls independently — diagnose, repair, and close
  • Handle escalations and difficult field situations professionally
  • Support and develop less experienced technicians in the field
  • Maintain high standards across workmanship, communication, and customer experience
  • Lead through preparation, professionalism, and execution
What You’ll Bring:
  • 7+ years of residential HVAC service experience
  • Advanced diagnostic ability across electrical, airflow, controls, and system performance
  • Strong communication and field judgment under pressure
  • Ability to lead, teach, and hold standards without drama or ego
  • Ownership mindset — you solve problems instead of passing them
Physical Requirements & Work Environment:

This is field work. Long days, ladders, rooftops, attics, crawlspaces, heavy equipment, and weather exposure are part of the job.

You’ll carry tools and materials, lift 50+ lbs, stay productive in difficult conditions, and continue performing when the call gets complicated or the day gets long.

Leadership in this role happens in the field — not from behind a desk.

If You’re Going to Lead — Lead From the Front

At this level, your work, communication, and leadership become visible quickly.

If you can solve difficult problems, lead by example, and make the people around you better, apply now.

If you need reminders, excuses, or someone else to carry accountability for you, this role will expose it quickly.

Alpha 1 Heating & Cooling is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We hire based on performance, accountability, professionalism, leadership, and execution.
