The Opportunity
As a Sprinkler Service Technician at Encore, you will be a key part of making sure our customers’ fire sprinkler systems are ready when they are needed most. You will inspect, test, service, and troubleshoot wet, dry, pre-action, and deluge systems, with a focus on reliability, compliance, and clear communication. This is a field-based role with a mix of planned service, repairs, and occasional emergency calls.
It is a strong fit for technicians who take pride in their craft, enjoy solving problems on active job sites, and want to work on a team that values professionalism, technical expertise, and continuous learning.
Key Responsibilities
You are the one people call when a system is leaking, a valve will not move, or an inspection turns up something that cannot wait. You sort out what is really going on, explain it in plain language, and leave the system in better shape than you found it. In this role, you will:
Service, test, inspect, and troubleshoot both basic and complex fire sprinkler systems.
Perform routine maintenance and repairs with accuracy, efficiency, and attention to detail.
Look for issues where systems are not working properly or not meeting current code requirements and recommend what needs to be fixed or upgraded.
Work with contractors, building maintenance staff, and internal office teams to schedule and complete service calls.
Document what you find, what you recommend, and what you repair, in line with company expectations and NFPA standards.
Take part in on-call rotations and respond to emergency service requests when needed.
Follow all safety procedures and represent Encore in a professional way on every job site.
