Ready to build a career in HVAC? If you like working with your hands, figuring out how things work, and taking pride in a job done right, this is a place to build your skills. GreenSavers is hiring an HVAC Maintenance Technician in Portland. We offer training and hands-on experience to help you learn the trade and explore where you want to go next—whether that’s service work or installation.

ABOUT THE JOB

You’ll build your foundation through scheduled maintenance visits at customers’ homes as part of our Home Performance Plan (HPP). You’ll learn the equipment, check and maintain systems, spot problems, and explain your findings to customers. You’ll report to the Service Lead and also work alongside our HVAC installation crews when needed, from a few hours to several days in a row. That mix gives you experience with both caring for existing systems and putting new ones in.

This is a full-time, hourly job with local travel around Portland. Some days may call for a longer shift.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Show up on time for scheduled visits and check and maintain the heating, cooling, and water-heating equipment covered by each appointment.
Spot worn parts, equipment problems, and repairs that may be needed. Let the customer and Production team know what you find.
Explain repair, material, or replacement options in plain language so customers understand their choices.
Write clear, accurate notes about each visit, including the work completed and any follow-up needed.
Lend a hand on installations of heat pumps, air conditioners, furnaces, air handlers, and water heaters—including heat pump and tankless models—and systems that combine this equipment.
Keep your work vehicle stocked and your tools, materials, shop, and work areas clean, safe, and organized.
Let your lead know right away about damaged tools, missing supplies, or vehicle problems.
Work safely, use the required protective gear, and follow company policies, schedules, and break requirements.
Treat customers, their homes, and your coworkers with respect. Join Production meetings and pitch in with other assigned work.

Requirements

Experience in construction or maintenance, or experience using hand and power tools. Bring mechanical curiosity and a willingness to learn—we’ll help you build your HVAC skills.
The ability to talk with customers, explain what you find, and answer questions clearly and respectfully.
A dependable, organized approach: show up on time, manage your appointments, and work well on your own or with a crew. Be ready for occasional longer shifts.
A valid driver’s license with an acceptable driving record, plus a commitment to working safely and following company policies.

THE PHYSICAL SIDE OF THE JOB

Frequently lift and carry up to 50 pounds, and occasionally more with assistance.
Stand, walk, bend, kneel, crouch, and climb ladders for extended periods; safely use hand and power tools.
Work in customer homes, varying weather conditions, confined spaces, and at heights as needed.

HELPFUL, BUT NOT REQUIRED

HVAC maintenance or installation experience is a plus, but you don’t need to come in knowing it all.
Spanish language skills are a plus.

Benefits

Medical, vision, and life insurance, with GreenSavers paying 75% of employee premiums.
401(k) with company match up to 3.5%.
Paid vacation, sick time, and holidays.
Company-paid job-related training and certification support.
Team events and an annual company retreat.
Hands-on experience with maintenance and installation, with opportunities to grow toward service or install roles as your skills develop and openings become available.
