Who We're Looking For
We need an experienced Commercial HVAC/R and Cooking Equipment Service Technician who:
- Knows their way around rooftop units, walk-ins, fryers, grills, and everything in between (or willing to learn)
- Has at least 3 years of hands-on service experience in commercial kitchens
- Is comfortable running after-hours and weekend emergency calls when it's their turn on-call
- Brings a "whatever it takes" attitude to troubleshooting and repair
- Understands that sometimes a temporary fix gets a restaurant through dinner service - and sometimes you've gotta go the extra mile
- Can work independently but knows how to tag-team when the situation calls for it
- Treats customers with respect, keeps them informed, and makes their problem your mission
This isn't an entry-level position. We'll show you how we operate, but we're counting on your skillset, decision-making, and follow-through from Day One
Our Core Values
We live these every day - and expect you to do the same:
- Communicate Relentlessly - Don't leave people in the dark. Stay in the loop, keep others in the loop.
- Own Everything - If you touch it, you're responsible for it. Period.
- One Team - We work together, share the wins, and cover each other's blind spots.
- Endlessly Improve - We're not perfect. But we work every day to get better.
- Change the Standard - Be the reason the customer calls us first. Be the tech others look up to.
- Enjoy the Journey - We hustle, we laugh, we respect each other, and we make every day count.

We're here to build something better - and that only works if we're hiring the right people.
What You'll Do
- Diagnose and repair commercial HVAC, refrigeration, and kitchen equipment
- Work independently in the field - but stay tight with dispatch, parts, and fellow techs
- Provide emergency service after hours on a rotating on-call schedule
- Clearly explain issues and solutions to customers and keep them in the loop
- Leave every job site better than you found it
- Help us build our presence and grow the business in the Houston market
