Job Description:
A entry level (Over 1 year of Experience) HVAC maintenance route with a written way out of it. Most shops treat the maintenance tech as the person who does the tune-ups the service techs don't want. The posted maintenance ranges in this market top out in the mid-$20s, "there's room to grow" gets said in the interview, and two years later you're still doing tune-ups. We're hiring differently, and we'll put the terms in writing. Must have 1 Year of Residential HVAC Experience or HVAC Trade School Completion. Green City Heating and Air Conditioning is a family-owned shop in Auburn — Jeff and Katrina Simonson started it in 2011, four family members run it today, and there are about twenty of us. We don't subcontract anything. Our team averages eight years of tenure, which in this trade tells you more than any culture statement could. This seat starts at $25.00 – $34.00 an hour — above every posted residential HVAC maintenance range we could find in Pierce County — and it is built as the on-ramp to our Service Technician role, not a parking spot. The numbers, up front$25.00 – $34.00 per hour base, depending on experienceUncapped performance pay — commission and spiffs on maintenance agreements, indoor air quality equipment, accessories, and system upgrades. No cap and no ceiling$2,000 sign-on bonus 401(k) with a 4% company match — a real number, not "401(k) with match"Your choice of a 4-day (4/10) workweek or a standard Monday–Friday. Your call, not a dispatcher'sA documented path into our Service Technician seat, which pays $32.00 – $48.00 an hour plus uncapped performance pay, where our top technicians clear $100,000 a year Guaranteed 40 hours per week. What you MUST bring 1+ years of hands-on RESIDENTIAL HVAC experience — maintenance, install helper, apprentice, or service all count Solid mechanical and electrical fundamentals, and real curiosity about why a system is doing what it's doingEPA 608 certification, or the ability to obtain it within 90 days — we'll pay for itAn insurable driving record, since you'll be driving a company van to customer homes every day Comfortable working from a tablet and mobile field software Genuine care for the customer's home and the patience to explain what you found in plain language Ability to work in attics, crawlspaces, and tight mechanical rooms, and to lift up to 75 pounds Must pass a background check upon a conditional offer of employment Be a professional. Be ethical- have integrity. Communicate great. Attention to detail. Good Listener. Impeccable with your words. HAVE PRIDE IN YOUR WORK. You do not need: years of diagnostic experience, a completed apprenticeship, or a trade-school degree. If you have the fundamentals, have a track record of being a quick learner, a true professional, you want to become a service technician, we will train you into it. What the work actually isPerform seasonal precision tune-ups and preventive maintenance on residential gas furnaces, heat pumps, air conditioners, and ductless mini-splits Take and record real readings — static pressure, temperature split, amp draw, refrigerant charge, combustion — and know what they're telling you Clean and service blowers, coils, burners, drains, and condensate systems Inspect electrical connections, capacitors, contactors, safeties, and controls, and flag what's degrading before it fails Identify and clearly document repair needs and system condition, and hand off a clean, complete write-up of findings to the customer Present our Comfort Care maintenance plan, indoor air quality solutions, filtration, and accessories — honestly, at the customer's pace, with no pressure Document every visit accurately in Housecall Pro on a company tablet, with photos Arrive on time, protect the home, and leave the work area cleaner than you found itDrive a company service van to customer homes across King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties. Driving to customer sites is an essential function of this position. The path out of the maintenance seat — in writing We're not going to tell you there's "room to grow" and leave it there. Here's the actual structure: Where you start. Maintenance route with Senior Tech evaluating performance, riding your own van, on the tune-up and preventive-maintenance schedule. You learn our documented standard for how a call is run, top to bottom. Following our Standard Maintenance Protocol. In the first 3 weeks, you will have learned more than 6 months anywhere else. How you're developed. Paid training on company time, plus reimbursement for EPA 608 and NATE certification. Scheduled ride-alongs with our senior service technicians on live diagnostic and repair calls — you'll be on the truck for the work you're moving toward, not just hearing about it. How progress is measured. In a recurring service meeting we review your actual numbers — maintenance completion quality, findings documented, membership conversion, callbacks. Specific jobs, specific figures, on a regular cadence. You will never have to guess where you stand or wonder whether anyone noticed. Where it goes. Service Technician at $32.00 – $48.00 an hour plus uncapped performance pay, and from there Lead Service Technician, Install, or Comfort Advisor — our top Comfort Advisor is on pace for more than $200,000 this year. The path is written down, the training is paid for, and the review cadence that measures your progress is already running. It is not something we invented for this posting.
