Location: Brooklyn, NYC

Type of contract: Independent contractor • In-person

About the Company

NYC mechanical contractor focused on commercial HVAC for offices, restaurants, hotels, and retail. Residential work (brownstones, co-ops, condos) grew through co-op-board referrals over the following two decades.

About the Role

We are seeking a service technician who can diagnose commercial systems, not just maintain them. Where you land in the pay band depends on your experience, especially your hands-on work on mini split and VRF systems. This is a primarily service and diagnostics role. You spend your day finding faults and fixing them, not pulling new installs but will at times.

Responsibilities

• Specialize in the installation, diagnosis, repair, and commissioning of residential and commercial HVAC systems, including advanced VRF/VRV platforms (Mitsubishi City Multi, Daikin VRV) and conventional commercial equipment.
• Isolate and resolve complex technical issues, including branch controller malfunctions, communication faults, precise refrigerant charge imbalances, and electrical/control logic failures.
• Proficiently interpret line and low-voltage wiring diagrams, utilize proprietary manufacturer service tools, and analyze system error codes to ensure precise diagnostics.
• Execute comprehensive equipment startups, baseline data collection, and functional testing while performing advanced refrigerant diagnostics to optimize system efficiency.
• Leverage ServiceTitan on a company iPad to accurately document faults, execute repairs, and clearly present structured service options to clients.

Requirements

• 3 or more years of hands-on experience in commercial HVAC service.
• EPA 608 Certification and a valid, clean NYS driver’s license.
• Highly proficient in reading wiring diagrams and troubleshooting line and low-voltage electrical and control faults.
• Advanced diagnostic experience with premier systems like Mitsubishi City Multi and Daikin VRV/VRF platforms, with the capability to easily leverage strong commercial fundamentals into brand-specific mastery.
• Strong focus on job site safety regulations; readiness to utilize or obtain OSHA 30 and NYC SST certifications.

Pay

$30–$40/hour (based on experience) plus a $5,000 sign-on bonus after 90 days.

Schedule

Monday–Friday, 9 AM–5 PM (EST).

Benefits

• Premium overtime: 1.5× base hourly rate for all hours worked over 40 in a single week.
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance plans, plus Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA).
• Generous 401(k) retirement plan and company-provided life insurance policy options.
• Paid Time Off (PTO), parental leave, and a dedicated company truck for daily operations.
