HVAC Selling Technician

HVAC Selling Technician

A field role for high-level technicians who can diagnose with confidence, build trust with homeowners, and turn service calls into real solutions. Tempo Air has served DFW homeowners since 1966. This is not a basic service technician job. Our HVAC Selling Technicians combine technical expertise with strong homeowner communication to diagnose system issues, recommend the right path forward, and help customers make smart comfort decisions. If you want to be more than just an employee, Tempo offers the rare advantage of employee ownership through an ESOP.

What Makes This Role Different

Employee-Owned - You are not just helping build someone else's company. Tempo offers an ESOP so your work contributes to long-term value for your future.

Sales + Technical Skill - You will diagnose, explain, recommend, and close. This role rewards technicians who can do the work and communicate it clearly.

Career Stability - Tempo has been serving homeowners in DFW since 1966 and has built a strong reputation in residential home comfort.

Real Benefits - Health, dental, vision, paid time off, paid holidays, life insurance, disability protection, ongoing training, and retirement benefits with employer match.

Not the Right Fit If...

You want a desk job or a role with little homeowner interaction. You dislike physical field work, changing conditions, or on-call responsibilities. You are uncomfortable recommending repairs, upgrades, or replacement options when they are clearly needed. You prefer heavy supervision instead of taking ownership of your truck, your calls, and your results.
