Requirements

Chiller Technician: This is where you come in.

We're looking for a Chiller Technician who will provide maintenance, repairs, and installation services of chillers for commercial customers. This person will also consult with customers regarding problems or issues discovered while servicing their chiller systems and work closely with our Service Coordination team and their Foreperson to make sure the customers needs/expectations are met. The Chiller Technician role will be part of our Industrial Group, which is a collaborative team working on a variety of projects and initiatives to support our growing business.

This is a union position through Local 290. This person must be willing and able to join the union or should already be a member!

Top 3 things to deliver in the first year to be a hero:
  1. Technical Expertise - we'll give you the tools you'll need to succeed, then we'll stand back and let the experts (you!) take it from there.
  2. Customer Service - You're the faces our customers see the most, so we're looking for folks who are happy to talk through questions/concerns customers might have.
  3. Pride in yourself and your craftsmanship - Execute with distinction! We do it right for the customer, find satisfaction in a job well done and knowing everyone goes home safely at the end of the day.

Your Background: What kind of person will thrive in this role?

You should have...
  • 3+ years of experience working on Chiller Systems, including Centrifugal, Screw, Scroll, and Magnetic bearing Compressor technology.
  • Membership to/willingness to join Local 290

And everyone you work with should describe you as...
  • high ownership, incredibly strong work ethic
  • great communicator
  • goal/results oriented, tons of initiative
  • great problem solver

And you should be motivated by...
  • Empowering yourself to learn how to do something. If you need a ton of handholding or a micro-manager boss, this is not the place for you
  • Working in a lean, results-oriented environment, where you'll be expected to do more, take on more, and achieve more every year
  • Having fun in an environment high on transparency, open to innovative new approaches with a supportive family feel

Benefits

Compensation: $70 to $85 per hour. Paid in accordance with the union wage scale.

Benefits are provided through the union. For more information, please visit them at their website https://ua290.org/, or reach out to a member of Local 290. If you're relocating to Portland for the role, we'll provide a sign-on bonus to support your move.

Where you will work

Our Portland office (12911 NE Airport Way, Portland OR, 97230) which is 5 minutes from the Portland Airport and Cascade Station and not far from the Downtown corridor, in the heart of the city buzzing with indie boutiques and a creative dining scene ranging from eclectic food trucks to high-end seafood bistros.
