About DCA

The Opportunity

If you’ve spent years diagnosing refrigeration circuits, reading schematics, and coaching younger techs—and you’re ready to trade the ladder for a headset—this role is for you. You’ll be the calm, trusted voice who helps contractors, reps, and service teams get DCA equipment running right.

\n
• Parts & RMAs : Recommend parts, create concise quotes/RMAs (warranty & non-warranty), and document root causes.
