Position Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled Service Technician to diagnose, repair, and restore HVAC systems for our residential customers. This role is responsible for handling demand service calls, system failures, and advanced troubleshooting , while delivering an excellent customer experience and identifying appropriate repair or replacement solutions.

You are the problem-solver customers rely on when their system isn’t working—and a key driver of service revenue and sales opportunities.

Key Responsibilities Diagnostics & Repair
  • Diagnose and repair residential HVAC systems including furnaces, heat pumps, AC systems, and ductless units

  • Troubleshoot electrical, mechanical, and airflow-related issues

  • Perform high-quality repairs that resolve issues the first time

  • Test systems after repair to ensure proper operation and safety

Customer Communication & Solutions
  • Clearly explain system issues, repair options, and recommendations to customers

  • Present repair vs. replacement options in a professional, honest manner

  • Build trust through transparency and technical expertise

  • Provide pricing and options using ServiceTitan

Revenue Generation & Opportunity Identification
  • Identify additional repair needs, system improvements, and upgrade opportunities

  • Generate leads for system replacement when appropriate

  • Offer memberships, IAQ products, and add-ons when they provide real value

  • Accurately document all recommendations for follow-up by the sales team

Documentation & System Use
  • Complete detailed job notes, including diagnostics, work performed, and recommendations

  • Upload photos and ensure all information is accurately recorded in ServiceTitan

  • Track time, materials, and job status in real time

  • Maintain clean, organized digital records for each call

Dispatch & Team Coordination
  • Communicate with dispatch regarding job progress, delays, and availability

  • Assist in keeping schedules efficient and on track

  • Coordinate with install and sales teams when replacement opportunities arise

  • Ensure smooth handoffs when escalation is needed

Qualifications
  • Strong HVAC diagnostic and repair experience

  • Ability to troubleshoot complex system issues independently

  • Solid understanding of electrical systems, airflow, and refrigeration principles

  • Strong communication and customer service skills

  • Experience with ServiceTitan or similar CRM preferred

  • Valid driver’s license and clean driving record

What Success Looks Like
  • High first-time fix rate with minimal callbacks

  • Accurate diagnostics and efficient repair times

  • Strong average ticket through honest, value-driven recommendations

  • Consistent generation of qualified sales leads

  • Clean, complete job documentation

Compensation & Structure
  • Hourly through a training period, normally 60 days, then performance pay.

Why This Role Matters

Service Technicians are the engine of the business . You solve urgent problems, generate revenue through repairs, and uncover opportunities for larger projects. Your ability to diagnose correctly, communicate clearly, and execute efficiently directly impacts profitability and customer trust.
