Senior Industrial Refrigeration Technician

About This Opportunity

We are seeking a Refrigeration Technician (Energy Efficiency Technician). We will consider a Senior level. The Energy Efficiency Technician (EET) performs facility tune‑ups at industrial sites and supports various refrigeration operator coaching and strategic energy management (SEM) cohorts. The EET works closely with engineering and SEM staff to identify energy saving opportunities and guide the customer toward implementation. The EET provides refrigeration system operation expertise and is knowledgeable of other energy using subsystems.

The tune‑up work supported by the EET is typically focused on facilities with industrial refrigeration, but the EET is also expected to be knowledgeable in other energy using subsystems including compressed air, pumps, fans, HVAC, lighting, and boilers.
