HVAC Technician

$25–$30/hour + Commission | Pay Based on Experience

Service Area: Union and Knox County

LJS Mechanical is a veteran-owned HVAC & Plumbing company that is growing and looking for an experienced HVAC technician to join our team.

We are continuing to grow and looking for someone who wants to grow with us.

We don't expect every process to be perfect. We're looking for someone with the experience and initiative to say, "Here's a better way we could do this," and help us implement it.

The right technician will have the opportunity to help shape how our service department operates, establish standards, improve internal processes, and eventually help lead and develop other technicians.

If you're looking for a position where you can simply show up, do the bare minimum, and go home, this will not be the right fit.

If you're an experienced technician who wants to have an impact, help build a team, take on leadership responsibilities, and grow with a company, we'd like to talk with you.

  • Upload job notes, photos, recommendations, and completed work

  • Communicate effectively with dispatch regarding scheduling and job status

  • Order materials and equipment needed for upcoming jobs

  • Provide input on current processes and help develop better ways of doing things

  • Assist in developing and mentoring future service technicians

  • Take an active role in helping build a strong, successful service team

  • Grow into additional responsibility and leadership as the company expands

Who We're Looking For

The right person will be someone who:

  • Minimum 2-3 years of professional residential or commercial HVAC experience required.

  • Veterans preferred but not required— experience requirements may be waived for qualified veterans.

  • Is dependable and takes ownership of their work

  • Has an interest in leadership and developing a service team

  • Is willing to speak up with ideas and help improve company processes

  • Wants to have a real voice and input in a growing company

Compensation & Benefits

$25–$30/hour + Commission

Pay will be based on experience, skill level, diagnostic ability, and demonstrated knowledge. Highly qualified applicants are encouraged to apply, and compensation may be adjusted based on experience and qualifications.
