• Interface with Building Management Systems (BMS) using BACnet, Modbus, and similar protocols.
• Troubleshoot and correct issues across mechanical, electrical, and control systems.
• Conduct or assist with warranty repairs and prepare root cause analysis reports.
• Provide comprehensive owner training and system documentation at handover.
• Complete all required field reports, test logs, service records, and punch lists.
• Ensure compliance with OSHA regulations and site-specific safety requirements.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of field experience in HVAC service or commissioning, particularly involving custom or large-scale mechanical systems.
• Proven skills in startup, troubleshooting, and commissioning of components including VFDs, sensors, and actuators.
• Comfortable interpreting mechanical/electrical drawings and installation manuals.
• Previous supervisory or field leadership roles are advantageous.
• Familiarity with BMS integration and communication protocols (BACnet, Modbus, etc.).

Requirements

• OSHA 10 or 30 certification is preferred.
• Must hold a valid driver’s license with a clean driving record.
• Open to 100% travel across the U.S. and Canada.
• Capable of lifting up to 50 lbs, climbing ladders, and working in mechanical environments.
• Competitive pay structure with per diem (aligned with GSA M&IE guidelines).
• Company-covered travel including airfare, hotel, and ground transportation.
