Mobile Building Engineer​/Facilities Technician

• Provide detailed service notes.

UG2 is seeking a highly motivated, hands-on Mobile Building Engineer / Facilities Technician to support a growing portfolio of commercial properties throughout the New York metropolitan area.

Unlike a traditional stationary building engineer position, this role operates as a “technician in a truck” mobile facilities service
. The Mobile Engineer will be assigned a portfolio and route of properties and will travel between locations in a UG2-provided service vehicle to perform scheduled inspections, preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, minor repairs, emergency response, and general building support.

The ideal candidate is a versatile, mechanically inclined self-starter who is comfortable working independently, interacting directly with property managers and ownership representatives, and identifying building issues before they become larger problems.

This is an opportunity to join UG2 as we build and expand a mobile engineering platform. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to help shape the program as the portfolio grows.

The Mobile Building Engineer will provide routine and on-demand facilities support across multiple client properties.

Responsibilities include:

• Perform scheduled property inspections using standardized digital inspection checklists.
• Inspect building exteriors, common areas, roofs, mechanical spaces, electrical rooms and other accessible building areas.
• Identify deficiencies, safety concerns, deferred maintenance and developing equipment problems.
• Perform routine preventive maintenance on building equipment within the technician's capabilities and assigned scope.
• Document equipment condition and recommend corrective actions when additional service is required.
• Verify completion and condition of previously identified deficiencies.

• Plumbing repairs such as faucets, flush valves, traps and minor leaks.
• Replacement of lamps, drivers, ballasts and other lighting components.
• Basic electrical troubleshooting and replacement of appropriate devices and components within applicable licensing requirements.
• Door, lock, hinge and hardware adjustments.
• Ceiling tile replacement and minor wall/finish repairs.
• Minor carpentry and hardware repairs.
• Basic HVAC troubleshooting and maintenance.
• Filter and belt replacement where applicable.
• Minor painting, patching and touch-up work.
• Signage and miscellaneous property repairs.
• Graffiti, vandalism & trash removal as well as other appearance-related maintenance.
• Exterior maintenance including hard and soft surface repairs.
• Storm and vandalism remediation and repair including temporary entry remediation (windows and doors.)
• Other general handyman and facilities maintenance activities.

The Mobile Engineer is expected to recognize the limits of his or her expertise and elevate work requiring specialized contractors, licensing or additional manpower.

While many properties may not require full-time engineering coverage, the Mobile Engineer serves as UG2's technical representative at each location.

• Visually inspect HVAC, electrical, plumbing, fire/life-safety, generators & stored emergency power system and other building systems.
• Identify abnormal operating conditions, leaks, noises, temperatures, alarms or equipment deterioration.
• Review basic equipment operating conditions where appropriate.
• Assist with troubleshooting equipment issues.
• Coordinate with UG2 management, property management and outside vendors when specialized repairs are required.
• Provide photographs and field information to assist with repair recommendations and capital planning.
