About The Position

The Building Management System (BMS) Technician is responsible for maintaining, troubleshooting, and optimizing the Building Management Systems across a portfolio of commercial and clinical facilities. The technician will support approximately 10 complex buildings along with a larger number of standardized facilities utilizing similar mechanical and control system architectures. This role requires the ability to independently diagnose system issues, prioritize service calls, and travel between sites as needed to ensure building automation systems operate reliably and efficiently. The technician must possess strong knowledge of building automation networks, electrical fundamentals, control logic, and mechanical system integration. The BMS Technician plays a critical role in ensuring HVAC systems, alarms, and building automation infrastructure remain fully operational to support occupant comfort, energy efficiency, and facility operations.
