  • Act as the ultimate technical resource, stepping in to solve complex residential equipment headaches and guide technicians through tricky diagnostics.
  • Keep our fleet and warehouse running smoothly by tracking inventory levels, minimizing part delays, and managing tools.
  • Champion a zero-compromise safety environment, ensuring all field operations match industry regulations and company safety standards.

  • A valid driver's license with an acceptable driving record, and the ability to clear our standard drug screening and background check.


Physical Requirements & Work Location
  • Ability to work comfortably in unconditioned spaces subject to extreme seasonal temperatures, including sub-zero winters and high-heat summers.
  • Ability to safely navigate residential spaces, including entering and working in basements, crawlspaces, attics, and utility closets.
