  • Benefits: Health, Dental, and Vision coverage(family plans available); Company-paid Life and Disability insurance.
  • Professional Growth: Performance evaluations every 6 months with clear paths for pay increases and leadership advancement.
  •  

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead/A-Tech: Provide site leadership, coordinate with the plant contact, and manage daily tasks for the maintenance team without needing constant external supervision.
  • Maintenance & Repair: Service a wide variety of equipment including split systems (up to 60 tons), package units (up to 50 tons), cabinet coolers (1-ton), hanging heaters, and air rotation machines.
  • Troubleshooting: Diagnose electrical and mechanical issues in a fast-paced industrial setting.
  • Preventative Maintenance: Manage filter changes and routine inspections to ensure 100% uptime for plant operations.
  • Communication: Maintain a professional relationship with on-site facility managers, providing clear updates on system status.
  •  

Candidate Requirements

  • Experience: 3+ years of commercial or light industrial HVAC experience preferred.
  • Proximity: Must reside within a 45-minute drive of the Cherokee, AL plant
  • Technical Skills: Proficiency in troubleshooting commercial units (1–60 tons). Familiarity with basic process chillers is a plus.
  • Attributes: High level of maturity, strong communication skills, and a "merit-based" work ethic.
  • Compliance: Must pass a technical exam, background check, drug screen, and MVR check.

 

Note: We are a non-union shop. Advancement and compensation are based strictly on skill, performance, and merit.
