Commercial HVAC/R TechnicianLos Angeles, CAPay: Ranging from $29.75 - $33.50/hr + Overtime + Full BenefitsWho We AreAtoms is building the machines that power the next era of progress.Over the last decade, software has transformed the digital world. But the physical world, where food is made, minerals are mined, goods are moved, and industries are run, remains far less intelligent, far less efficient, and far more constrained. We're changing that.Atoms builds Physical AI—real-world robots for the industries that move civilization forward, starting with food, mining, and transport. Our systems are designed to understand, predict, and control the real world with precision, turning complex physical operations into something more reliable, more scalable, and more productive.This work requires more than robotics. It requires deep integration across hardware, software, AI, operations, manufacturing, and real estate. We don't just build machines in a lab. We deploy them into real environments, operate them, learn from them, and improve them until they work at scale.We are roboticists, engineers, operators, and builders. We believe the next great technology companies will not only transform information, but the physical systems that shape everyday life.If you want to work on hard problems with real-world impact, join us.Why This Role Is DifferentThis isn't a typical HVAC job chasing random service calls.Work on modern, standardized commercial kitchen facilitiesPredictable environments ? faster diagnostics, less guessworkMix of hands-on repair + system troubleshooting + facility supportOpportunity to grow into Facilities or Regional leadership rolesBe part of a rapidly growing operation in a $100B+ industryIndependent problem-solving with access to a collaborative support network (engineering, senior techs) for complex escalationsWhat You'll DoHVAC/R & Facilities MaintenancePerform preventative maintenance and repairs on commercial HVAC/R systems (WIC/R, RTUs, exhaust fans, hoods, make-up air units, DOAS systems)Diagnose and troubleshoot system issues across multiple sitesSupport refrigeration and kitchen ventilation systemsFacility Operations SupportConduct site inspections to ensure equipment is operating safely and efficientlyHandle basic electrical and plumbing maintenance as neededCoordinate with external vendors for specialized repairs and warranty workSystem Performance & TroubleshootingUse Building Management Systems (BMS) to monitor performance and diagnose issuesProvide remote troubleshooting support to onsite teams and vendorsReview reports (startup, testing, balancing) to verify system performanceNew Site SupportAssist with new facility openings by verifying installation and system functionalityIdentify issues early and coordinate corrective actionsWhat Your Week Looks Like70% hands-on HVAC/R maintenance & repair20% troubleshooting & diagnostics (onsite + remote)10% inspections, reporting, and system verificationWhat We're Looking ForRequired5+ years of commercial HVAC/R experienceExperience working with rooftop units, ventilation systems, or refrigeration (WIC/F)Strong troubleshooting and diagnostic skillsValid driver's license and ability to travel between sites locallyPreferredHVAC Universal certification (EPA, trade school, or equivalent)Experience in restaurants, hospitality, or multi-site facilitiesWorking knowledge of electrical and plumbing systemsWork Environment & ScheduleField-based role across the Greater Los Angeles areaLocal travel between sites (home daily)Monday–Friday schedule with on-call rotation and overtime opportunitiesWhy Join UsAt Atoms, you'll work on one of the defining challenges of our time—bringing automation into the physical world to drive real, lasting impact.
