• Coordinate with customer project managers to schedule site visits, travel, and onsite work at key milestones in the construction schedule.

• Review design documentation, including drawings, blueprints, and submittals, to understand project requirements and identify potential conflicts before and during installation.

• Collaborate with the engineering team and customer stakeholders to resolve design details and technical questions.

• Generate detailed project reports after each site visit, documenting work performed, test results, issues encountered, and follow-up actions.

• Provide post-installation troubleshooting support, both onsite and remotely, to address performance issues, customer concerns, and system adjustments.

• Use basic carpentry and HVAC tools safely and effectively while working on ladders, scaffolding, and lifts.

• Maintain courteous, professional communication with customers, project managers, and internal teams in verbal, written, and interpersonal interactions.

• Follow all site safety requirements and use provided personal protective equipment (PPE) while working in active construction areas and operational hospital environments.

Essential Skills

Why Work Here?

You will join a company that invests heavily in its people through comprehensive benefits, generous travel support, and meaningful time off. All work-related travel and hotels are fully covered, with a daily per diem to offset food costs, and the flexibility to extend trips or bring family at your own expense when appropriate. The benefits package includes fully paid employee medical premiums, contributions toward dependent coverage, an HSA option, voluntary dental coverage, and company-paid life and disability insurance. Long-term financial security is supported through a 401(k) plan with discretionary profit sharing. Work-life balance is reinforced with a robust time-off program that includes vacation, PTO, and paid holidays, allowing you to recharge while building a rewarding career in a highly specialized technical field.

Work Environment

This is a travel-heavy, field-based position that combines office work with frequent visits to hospitals and active construction sites. You will typically spend part of your time in an office setting handling documentation, coordination, and reporting, and approximately 10-15 days per month traveling to hospital projects across different regions. Many assignments take place in hospitals that are already operational, so you must feel comfortable working in clinical environments and adhering to strict safety and cleanliness standards. Onsite work often occurs in active construction zones where you will be on your feet, working from ladders, scaffolding, and lifts, and handling materials up to 50 lbs, with assistance or equipment for heavier loads. Personal protective equipment (PPE) is provided and expected to be used at all times in accordance with site safety rules.
