HVAC Service Technical Advisor

HVAC Service Technical Advisor

Brandt Heating and Air Conditioning is hiring an HVAC Service Technical Advisor in Iowa City. This role combines technical expertise with training, mentoring, field support, and leadership while offering more controlled hours than a traditional technician position.
This Is More Than a Technical Role

The Technical Advisor is one of the people technicians turn to when they need guidance.

You'll help set expectations, coach technicians, identify training needs, develop training programs, and provide technical support when a job becomes more complicated.

You'll spend time in the field, but your role goes beyond individual service calls. You'll help improve how the department operates and how technicians develop throughout their careers.

You'll also:

• Ride along with technicians to provide coaching and feedback
• Help troubleshoot complex HVAC issues
• Support repair-versus-replacement decisions
• Conduct training and mentoring
• Help establish and maintain technician expectations
• Build and maintain training programs through Interplay Learning
• Review callbacks and help identify ways to prevent repeat problems
• Collaborate with dispatch, service, and installation
• Help maintain safety and code compliance
• Support relationships with local trade schools

A Better Way to Use Your HVAC Experience

This role offers more predictable and consistent hours than a traditional technician position, while keeping you connected to the technical work you enjoy.

On-call responsibilities are shared through a good rotation, meaning you won't be on call every week. The company also places a real emphasis on work-life balance and works to get the team wrapped up earlier whenever the day's work allows.

• Health, dental, and vision insurance
