Senior HVAC Controls Technician
Jacksonville, FL
W.W. Gay Mechanical Controls & Integration is expanding and looking for a Senior HVAC Controls Technician who wants to own projects, solve complex problems, and be trusted as the technical lead in the field.
If you’re an experienced BAS professional who’s tired of being micromanaged, underpaid, or stuck doing the same repetitive work, this role is designed for you.
Why This Role Is Different
Pay, based on experience and skills assessment
Company service vehicle with take-home use
Local work — no constant overnight travel
Strong project management and engineering support
Real autonomy in the field — you’re trusted to make decisions
Manufacturer training and long-term career growth
Stable workload backed by a respected mechanical contractor
Technology You’ll Work With
You’ll work hands-on with modern BAS platforms, including:
Tridium Niagara AX / N4
Honeywell WEBs
KMC Controls
JCI FX
(Experience with all platforms is not required — strong proficiency in the industry is sufficient.)
Your Role
As a Senior Controls Technician, you will serve as the technical lead on assigned projects, responsible for delivering high-quality BAS installations from start-up through turnover.
Your responsibilities include:
Field programming and system start-up
Commissioning and functional testing under live and simulated conditions
Verifying sequences of operation and system performance
Graphics and front-end installation, testing, and client training
Troubleshooting and making real-world programming adjustments
Coordinating with project managers, technicians, and clients
Producing clean documentation, as-builts, and checkout sheets
Supporting warranty calls as needed
You’ll work with minimal supervision while having access to management and engineering support when needed.
What Success Looks Like
Within your first few months, you’ll:
Confidently start up and commission assigned BAS systems
Identify and resolve field issues independently
Deliver projects that meet or exceed sequence and performance expectations
Build trust with PMs, clients, and fellow technicians
What We’re Looking For
5+ years of experience in HVAC/DDC/BAS controls
Strong understanding of HVAC systems and control strategies
Proven experience programming, commissioning, and troubleshooting
Ability to read wiring diagrams, control drawings, and sequences
Professional, organized, and reliable on active construction sites
Valid driver’s license with a clean driving record
