Full Job Description

We are urgently open for a highly skilled Maintenance Technician for our apartment communities located in Pittsburgh , PA.

**$500 Sign-up Bonus after a successful 90-day introductory period for joining our team!**

About the Property

The Venue is a 12-story, 197-unit luxury apartment community in the heart of downtown Pittsburgh. Originally constructed in 1964 and extensively renovated, the property features high-end finishes, a rooftop pool, ground-floor retail, and a leasing office. The building's 11th and 12th floors were converted from commercial space to residential in 2020-2021 and house a dedicated multi-unit VRF heat pump system. Upper tower floors (14-25) are served by individual PTAC units.

A third-party Property Condition Report (Freddie Mac PCR, May 2025) confirmed the mechanical systems are in average condition and the 11th-12th floor heat pumps are not expected to require replacement during the loan term. This is a direct result of appropriate maintenance — and we need a skilled in-house technician to keep it that way.

The Role

This is a hands-on, building-dedicated technician position. You will serve as the in-house subject matter expert on our Daikin VRF/VRV system and all related mechanical infrastructure. The ideal candidate diagnoses and resolves issues independently, reducing reliance on outside vendors and ensuring residents receive prompt, reliable climate control. You will report to the Maintenance Supervisor and work closely with the Property Manager and regional asset management team.

This is not a general maintenance role with some HVAC exposure. We need a VRF specialist. If you cannot diagnose a Daikin fault code, troubleshoot an inverter board, or perform a refrigerant charge on R-410A, this position is not the right fit — and we say that respectfully to save everyone time.

System Overview – What You'll Be Working On

The 11th and 12th floors are served by a Daikin VRF (Variable Refrigerant Flow) system commissioned in January 2022. Key components:

Outdoor Units

Daikin REYQ144XAYDA rooftop VRV condensing units; two main sets each serving half of Floors 11-12, subdivided into four zones total

Indoor FCUs

48 Daikin cassette and wall-mount fan coil units serving approximately 24 residential apartments

Refrigerant

R-410A; approximately 125 lbs per outdoor unit circuit

Controls

Daikin intelligent Touch Manager (iTM) centralized controls with individual wall-mounted thermostats per unit

Circuit Boards

A1P and A3P inverter/control boards within outdoor condensing units

MUA Unit

Dedicated rooftop Make-Up Air unit with VFD providing fresh air ventilation to Floors 11-12

Upper Tower

Floors 14-25 served by individual PTAC units (through-wall) — separate scope also under this role

Compressors

Scroll compressors within outdoor units; each pair shares compressors for its designated zone

Key Responsibilities

VRF System – Primary Focus

Perform scheduled preventive maintenance on all 48 indoor FCUs including filter cleaning and replacement (quarterly cycle)

Diagnose and troubleshoot VRF/VRV system faults: compressor failures, inverter board malfunctions (A1P/A3P), refrigerant leaks, and control communication errors

Perform refrigerant recovery, evacuation, and recharging using R-410A per EPA Section 608 requirements

Replace and commission compressors, inverter boards, TXVs, and other VRF components

Maintain and troubleshoot the rooftop MUA unit including VFD diagnostics and motor/belt replacement

Monitor system performance and proactively identify patterns indicating design, installation, or equipment deficiencies

Coordinate with Daikin Applied (warranty/service), Havtech (parts), and third-party MEP engineers as needed

Respond to emergency heating/cooling calls; configure emergency mode when parts are on order

Documentation & Compliance

Maintain detailed work order logs with unit numbers, dates, findings, and parts used for every service event

Read and interpret mechanical drawings (Pedicone Engineering design set, June 2019) to verify system configurations

Support warranty documentation and coordinate with MEP forensic engineers if needed

Maintain HAZCOM standards; conduct safety meetings; follow OSHA and EPA regulations governing refrigerant and hazardous materials

General Building Maintenance

Service and maintain PTAC units on upper tower floors (Floors 14-25) as part of routine scope

Perform general maintenance: plumbing, electrical, appliance repair, flooring, doors, locks, and unit turns

Complete resident service requests within 24 hours when possible; participate in on-call rotation for after-hours emergencies

Maintain adequate spare parts inventory; keep storage areas organized and locked

Assist with grounds, litter removal, and light exterior work as circumstances warrant

Required Qualifications

Minimum 3-5 years of hands-on experience with Daikin VRF/VRV systems or equivalent commercial VRF platforms (Mitsubishi City Multi, LG Multi V, Samsung DVM)

EPA Section 608 Universal Certification (required — must hold at time of application)

Demonstrated experience with compressor replacement, inverter board diagnostics, and refrigerant circuit troubleshooting

Proficiency with R-410A refrigerant handling, recovery, and recharging procedures

Ability to read mechanical drawings, wiring diagrams, and P&ID schematics

Experience with VFDs (Variable Frequency Drives) and MUA (Make-Up Air) units

Strong understanding of ASHRAE standards for residential HVAC design and ventilation

Comfortable working on rooftop equipment in all weather conditions

Own basic HVAC tool kit: manifold gauge set, vacuum pump, and multimeter

Minimum 3-5 years total property maintenance experience; HVAC must be primary skill area

Ability to lift up to 50 lbs unassisted; climb ladders up to 30 feet; work in confined spaces

Valid driver's license and reliable transportation

Preferred Qualifications

Daikin-specific factory training or Daikin Pro certification

NATE certification (HVAC Install or Service specialty)

Experience with Daikin intelligent Touch Manager (iTM) centralized controls

Prior experience in high-rise multifamily or mixed-use commercial buildings

Familiarity with building automation systems (BAS/BMS)

Pennsylvania journeyman or master HVAC license

Experience supporting warranty claims or working alongside MEP forensic engineers

Experience servicing PTAC units in a multifamily setting
