Fire Suppression Technician

The role

No fire protection experience is required. We’ll train you. If you’re mechanically inclined and want a long-term career in a trade that protects people and property, we’ll teach you the rest through paid, hands-on training.

You’ll inspect, service, and install portable fire extinguishers and pre-engineered fire suppression systems at restaurants, industrial sites, and fleet operations across our service area. You’ll start alongside experienced technicians and build toward working independently.

Already in fire protection? Bring your skills to a growing company and expand your knowledge of extinguishers and pre-engineered suppression systems.

• Inspect and service pre-engineered fire suppression systems
• Complete inspection reports and documentation accurately on a company iPad
• Explain deficiencies and recommended repairs to customers, and pass them to our sales team
• Follow manufacturer requirements, NFPA standards, and company procedures
• Drive an assigned company vehicle safely, and keep it clean, stocked, and organized
