HVAC Service Technician

Anchor Staffing is partnering with a well-established mechanical contractor in Mobile, Alabama, to find an experienced Commercial HVAC Service Technician who takes pride in their work and knows how to get the job done.

This is a service-focused position, not a full-time installation role. We're looking for someone who can confidently diagnose equipment issues, troubleshoot electrical and mechanical problems, make repairs, and handle service calls independently.

Our client offers consistent, year-round work, excellent benefits, and a supportive team environment. They're looking for a dependable technician who wants stability and the opportunity to build a long-term career.

• Diagnose, troubleshoot, service, and repair commercial HVAC equipment.

• Identify and repair mechanical, electrical, and refrigeration-related issues.

• Perform compressor replacements and other major HVAC component repairs.

• Braze and solder refrigerant lines and connections as needed.

• Troubleshoot electrical components, motors, contactors, capacitors, and controls.

• Service rooftop units (RTUs), packaged systems, and other air-cooled HVAC equipment.

• Check refrigerant pressures, identify system performance issues, and make necessary repairs.

• Perform preventative maintenance, equipment inspections, and system start-ups.

• Read electrical schematics and use diagnostic tools to identify equipment problems.

• Complete service calls independently while having support from an experienced service manager and team.

Please note: This position focuses primarily on service, diagnostics, and repairs. A separate installation team handles major equipment installations and demolition. Service technicians may assist with service-related installation work, such as refrigerant piping, electrical connections, compressor replacements, and start-ups.

• Previous hands-on HVAC service and repair experience.

• Strong troubleshooting and diagnostic skills.

• Experience working with compressors, refrigerant systems, and electrical components.

• Ability to braze or solder refrigerant lines and perform service-related repairs.

• Experience servicing air-cooled HVAC equipment.

• Ability to work independently and make sound repair decisions in the field.

• Must have your own basic hand tools.

• EPA certification for refrigerant handling.

• Valid driver's license.

• Strong work ethic, dependable attendance, and good communication skills.

Commercial HVAC experience is preferred, but we're also open to experienced residential service technicians with strong troubleshooting abilities and the skills to transition into commercial service work.

Additional experience with commercial refrigeration, boilers, water-cooled systems, building automation, and mechanical drawings is a plus, but not required. Training is available for the right technician.

• 100% employer-paid family medical coverage at no cost to the employee.

• Company-provided vehicle.

• 401(k) with a 4.5% company match after the first year.

• Significant overtime opportunities, including some Saturdays.

• Performance and compensation reviews approximately every six months.

• One week of paid vacation after one year.

• Two weeks of paid vacation after five years.

• Consistent, year-round workload.

• Long-term career opportunity with an established mechanical contractor.

This is a field role: the work happens at customer and job sites rather than at a single worksite, and you will be based within driving distance of the job location. Expect day trips to job sites, with most nights at home.

You should be proficient in:

• HVAC
• HVAC/R Systems
• Refrigeration Systems
• HVAC Service & Installation
• HVAC Repair

Machines & technologies you'll use:
