Job Details

Senior Kitchen Suppression & Fire Extinguisher Technician (Future Division Leader)

A growing, family-owned fire protection company in the DFW area is hiring a Senior Kitchen Suppression & Fire Extinguisher Technician with a clear path to build and lead this division.

This role is designed for a high-level technician ready to take the next step - not just stay in the field long-term. You'll start hands-on, with the expectation of growing into a leadership role as the division expands.

What We're Looking For

  • Texas FEL-K License - Required
  • FEL-A License - Preferred (or willingness to obtain quickly)
  • ~10 years of hands-on experience with extinguishers and kitchen suppression systems
  • Strong experience in inspections, service, repairs, and installations
  • Ability to design systems, pull permits, and run jobs start to finish
  • Fully independent in the field

High-Value Traits (Non-Negotiable)

  • Hungry for growth and advancement
  • Wants to move beyond just being a technician
  • Likely undervalued or stuck with no clear path forward
  • Strong leadership potential with accountability mindset
  • Thinks like a builder - not just a worker

Role Structure & Growth Path

Phase 1: Senior Field Technician (Immediate)

  • Own inspections, service, installs, and repairs
  • Help stabilize and elevate current workload
  • Bring a higher level of execution and accountability

Phase 2: Operational Involvement (Short Term)

  • Provide input on workflow, scheduling, and structure
  • Identify inefficiencies and growth opportunities
  • Support hiring and training efforts

Phase 3: Field Supervisor (As Team Grows)

  • Lead and train additional technicians
  • Enforce standards and accountability in the field

Phase 4: Division Leader (Long Term)

  • Oversee operations, team performance, and growth
  • Play a key role in scaling this service line

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Existing workload ready to step into immediately
  • Opportunity to bring and grow customer relationships
  • Direct path into leadership - not years down the road
  • Ability to help build and shape a department

Who This Is For

  • A technician ready to step into leadership
  • Someone who wants to build something and grow with it
  • A professional looking for more responsibility, impact, and upside

Who This Is NOT For

  • Someone looking to stay comfortable in the same role
  • Technicians without initiative or leadership mindset
  • Anyone not interested in growth or accountability
