Full Job Description Company Background:
We are 24 (and growing) market-leading operating companies that deliver unmatched HVAC, mechanical, refrigeration, plumbing, and electrical solutions. We are actively building the nation's preferred technical service partnership for commercial MEP+ ecosystems, empowering industrial, commercial, and institutional clients—including Fortune 500 companies and other industry leaders across the United States—with reliable, innovative service. Learn more about us at www.kelso-industries.com Retrofit Technology has been retrofitting Southern California's commercial buildings since 1989 — chillers, cooling towers, chilled water systems, refrigeration, and the mechanical guts that keep facilities running. We don't do new construction and we don't do residential. We install modern cooling and heating technology into yesterday's buildings, which means every job is a real problem to solve, not a cookie-cutter install. In 2023 we were acquired by Kelso Industries, a ~$1.2B platform — national backing with the culture of a shop that still knows everybody's name. We're growing 40%+ year over year and hiring because we have more work than hands. The Role Two experienced HVAC technicians who can both service and install commercial refrigeration and chilled water systems, working alongside foremen and techs who know their trade. This isn't a parts-changer job. We want people who understand systems. What You'll Do Install and service commercial chilled water systems and refrigeration equipment Install fan coils, split systems, air handlers, and related mechanical equipment
