Why You'll Love This Role: You'll thrive in this role if you enjoy solving problems and being the expert people count on when a system needs attention. As a Fire Alarm Service Technician, you'll be the front line for keeping fire alarm systems reliable and code-compliant long after installation: diagnosing faults, performing scheduled inspections and testing, and responding to emergency service calls across a wide range of proprietary and non-proprietary systems.
If you enjoy variety in your day, hands-on troubleshooting, and interacting with a wide range of people, this position will let you shine. It's a chance to make a real difference, knowing that your work keeps life-safety systems functioning when it matters most.
What You'll Do:
Inspection & Testing : Perform scheduled inspections, testing, and preventive maintenance on fire alarm systems, batteries, and electrical wiring in accordance with NFPA 72 and manufacturer requirements
Troubleshooting & Repair : Diagnose and repair system faults, nuisance alarms, and device failures across diverse proprietary and non-proprietary fire alarm systems
Emergency Response : Respond promptly to emergency and trouble service calls, often as part of an on-call rotation
Compliance: Ensure all inspection, testing, and repair work complies with relevant codes including NFPA standards and AHJ requirements
Documentation : Complete inspection, testing, and correction reports accurately and maintain required records for code compliance
Customer Service : Convey system operation, deficiencies, and recommended corrections clearly to customers and building personnel
Professional Growth : Embrace opportunities to learn, grow, and take on additional responsibilities, including limited install or upgrade work as needed
What We’re Looking For:
High School Diploma or GED (required)
EL-06 License (required)
NICET II (preferred but not required)
4+ years in fire alarm inspection, testing, maintenance, and/or repair
2+ years in fire alarm installation (preferred)
Strong working knowledge of NEC (low voltage) and NFPA 72, particularly inspection and testing requirements
Familiarity with water-based fire sprinkler systems
Experience with Microsoft Office and Google Suite
Capable of performing physical labor to include carrying and moving equipment and tools weighing up to 70 lbs
Ability to work in unusual and sometimes difficult positions such as climbing ladders, scaffolding and high lift equipment, utility vaults (confined spaces), above ceilings, etc.
Able to work a full-time yet flexible schedule, including participation in an on-call/emergency service rotation
Drug screening and background checks will only be conducted after a conditional job offer is made. We evaluate criminal history based on its relevance to the job duties.
This is a Safety Sensitive position. All candidates must successfully pass a comprehensive pre-employment drug screening test, including testing for marijuana/THC/cannabis, regardless of state law or medical authorization, as a condition of employment.
Valid driver's license with excellent driving record
Ability to adhere to, implement, and follow safety guidelines and procedures at all times
Ideal Candidate Attributes:
Diagnostic mindset — enjoys tracing a problem to its root cause
Continually seeks ways to improve efficiencies
Desire to grow and willingness to learn
Positive attitude and professional demeanor including good judgment and honesty
Operates methodically and is well organized
Takes initiative and can operate with minimal guidance
Trains teammates and openly shares knowledge and experience
Customer-centric: goes the extra mile to get the job done correctly
