About This Role

Job Overview

This HVAC Technician role is for someone who prefers tools to a desk. You'll handle installation, maintenance, and repair work across residential and commercial systems in the Washington, DC area. The job keeps you moving between different sites, solving real problems with your hands and your know how.

Duties & Responsibilities

  • Perform diagnostic tests and troubleshoot issues on heating, ventilation, and air conditioning units.
  • Complete installations of new HVAC equipment according to manufacturer specs and local codes.
  • Conduct scheduled maintenance services, cleaning components and replacing filters or worn parts.
  • Explain repair options and necessary work clearly to customers, providing written estimates.
  • Maintain an organized service vehicle, ensuring parts inventory is stocked and tools are in good condition.

  • A clean driving record and reliable transportation are required for service calls.

What It's Like In This Role

You're mostly on your own schedule once you get the day's route. Communication with dispatch happens via a mobile app, updating job statuses as you go. The team back at the shop is there for support on tricky diagnostics or sourcing parts. Expect a mix of routine tune ups and unexpected emergency calls; no two days are identical. You'll use your own hand tools alongside provided diagnostic equipment like multimeters and manifold gauges.

Why You'll Like This Opportunity

The variety here means you're always learning; one day it's a furnace retrofit, the next it's troubleshooting a complex building management system. There's clear potential to move into more specialized service or supervisory roles based on performance. Because JobXi lists openings from many employers in Washington, DC, you get a wider view of what's available without being tied to a single company's culture from the start.

Schedule & Work Type
