• Work with commercial-grade equipment (rooftop units, boilers, chillers, VAV systems, larger-diameter piping, backflow prevention systems)
• Coordinate on-site with other trades (electrical, sheet metal, fire protection)
• Document work, pull permits as required, and liaise with facility managers at client sites
• Support fire sprinkler-adjacent mechanical work as needed

Qualifications

Required:

• HVAC or plumbing apprenticeship (4-5 yrs) or trade/technical school (1-2 yrs) plus field experience
