About the role
Job Description: Residential HVAC Service & Installation Specialist
A day in the life:
You start your morning reviewing service tickets, loading your truck, and heading out in a well-organized company vehicle (available to qualified technicians). You’ll troubleshoot a furnace that won’t ignite, swap a failed capacitor to bring an A/C back online, and walk a homeowner through your findings in plain language. In the afternoon, you might set a new heat pump or mini-split, knock out seasonal maintenance, and lend a hand on a light commercial call. If an emergency pops up, you’re the calming pro who restores comfort and ensures everything meets code.

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
