About the Role
Scott Systems is a commercial HVAC company based in Pine Bluff, but expanding across Central Arkansas. We're looking for an honest and reliable technician to join our team. Most of our work is on rooftop units (RTUs) and package units. Your primary work will be servicing, maintaining, and repairing the equipment that keeps offices, retail spaces, restaurants, churches, and light industrial buildings comfortable.
Coming from residential? Don't count yourself out. If you can troubleshoot a split system, read a wiring diagram, and diagnose a refrigeration circuit, you already have the foundation. The equipment is bigger and it lives on a roof, but the fundamentals are the same ones you use every day. We'll train you on the commercial side: economizers, three-phase power, belt-drive blowers, and multi-stage systems.
What we can't train is work ethic and troubleshooting instinct, so that's what we're hiring for. We operate on four core values: trust, craftsmanship, dependability, and taking initative. Taking care of our team is how we build a company that lasts; We keep our work local so that you can be with your family at the end of the day and offer you a path for growth throughout your career.
What You'll Work On
- Package rooftop units (2–25 tons) gas/electric and heat pump

- Complete service reports and maintenance records
- Communicate clearly with customers about what you found, what you fixed, and what you recommend

- EPA 608 certification (Universal preferred, Type II minimum)
