Job Description
Service Technician - Commercial Refrigeration, HVAC & Foodservice Equipment

Experienced. Independent. Trusted on our most demanding accounts.

Market: TampaClearwaterLakeland

Full-TimeField-BasedHealthcare & Foodservice Focus

Not Every Technician Gets Trusted With These Accounts

Coastline serves the customers who can't afford downtime - healthcare facilities where refrigerated medication and clinical equipment failures aren't an inconvenience, they're a patient safety issue, and national foodservice brands where a broken walk-in or a down combi-oven stops revenue the moment it happens.

We're hiring an experienced Service Technician who can walk onto any one of those calls - refrigeration, HVAC, or foodservice equipment including combi ovens - and diagnose and repair it independently. No ramp-up period, no hand-holding. If you've spent years earning that kind of trust in this trade, we want to put you in front of the accounts that deserve it.

What You'll Be Doing

• Full-scope diagnosis and repair across commercial refrigeration (walk-ins, reach-ins, ice machines), light commercial HVAC, and foodservice equipment - including combi ovens and other combination cooking platforms
• Servicing healthcare and foodservice accounts where uptime is mission-critical and documentation standards are high
• Working independently in the field - you own the call from diagnosis to completion, not just a checklist
• Preventative maintenance and warranty work alongside emergency repairs
• Direct coordination with your Regional Service Manager and Parts/Procurement on part sourcing and complex repairs
• Representing Coastline as the technician our national accounts specifically request back

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years of hands-on experience across commercial refrigeration, HVAC, and/or foodservice equipment repair - combi oven experience is a strong plus
• EPA Certification (Type II or Universal) required; CFESA certification (or strong desire to pursue) strongly preferred
• Proven ability to diagnose and complete repairs independently, without constant supervision
• Comfortable working in healthcare environments - background check and any facility-specific credentialing requirements are part of the role
• Own hand tools; valid driver's license with an insurable driving record
• Strong communication skills - you'll be the face of Coastline in front of demanding, high-stakes customers

What matters as much as your technical skill is how you carry yourself on a call. We look for:

• Extreme Ownership - you own the outcome of every call, not just the task list
• Relentless Pursuit of Excellence - you're still sharpening your craft, not coasting on experience
• High Integrity - customers and teammates can take your word at face value
• Magnetic Personality - someone healthcare and foodservice clients are glad to see show up

Compensation & Benefits

We pay hourly, with overtime opportunities, and pay is directly tied to performance. Average combo technicians in this role earn $26-$36/hour, with up to 10 overtime hours per week ($63,883-$96,769 annually with OT), based on production and responsibility.

We also value your time outside of work. If you're looking for 20+ hours of overtime every week, Coastline may not be the right fit - our regular operating hours are 7:00am-5:00pm, and many days you'll be done by 4:00pm. We want you home for dinner.

Plus, you'll receive:

• Consistent off-time by 5:00pm - our emergency on-call rotation (every 4-6 weeks, depending on market) still gets you home for dinner most nights
• Paid time off & holidays
• Comprehensive insurance - medical, dental, vision, and life coverage
• 401(k) with company match - Roth or Traditional options
• Newer company vehicles, top-tier tools & fresh uniforms - provided and customized to your preferences
• Fully paid continuing education & certifications, including CFESA Master Technician sponsorship and various Manufacturer Certifications each year
• Industry discounts & HVAC replacement perks
• Ongoing technical training & advancement

Why Experienced Techs Choose Coastline

• Work on accounts that matter - national healthcare and foodservice brands
• Fully paid continuing education, including CFESA Master Technician certification costs and Manufacturer certification costs
• Backed by the industry - Coastline is a Tier III Voting Member of CFESA and a trusted factory partner for True Manufacturing, Hoshizaki, Welbilt, Ali Group, Middleby, Spaceman, Electro-Freeze, and more
• Real career trajectory - the majority of our technicians take on additional leadership within 2 years and are leading full teams by year five
• Decentralized, respected field role - you're trusted to own your calls, not micromanaged through them
• A team that keeps critical infrastructure running - healthcare, restaurants, schools, and military facilities all depend on the work you do

The Process

1. Apply below through our application portal
2. Technical conversation with your Regional Service Manager - we want to hear how you think through real repairs, not just what's on your resume
3. In-person meeting to walk through the role, the accounts, and what Coastline expects on healthcare and foodservice calls
4. Offer and onboarding
