Job description
Lead BAS/DDC Controls Technician (HVAC)

Picture your day starting on a New England job site with a fresh set of controller configs and a sequence of operations in hand. By mid-morning, you’re validating sensor readings, tightening up network communication, and coaching a junior tech on best practices. After lunch, you’re collaborating with engineering and project management to fine-tune control strategies for energy efficiency and system optimization. Before you wrap up, you document updates, verify alarms and trends, and close out a commissioning checklist that keeps a client’s facility running at its best.

About Pheonix Controls

Pheonix Controls delivers turnkey HVAC solutions across the New England region as part of the MIH Systems Group family. We design, install, and maintain advanced systems for commercial and industrial environments, partnering closely with mechanical contractors, GCs, building owners, facilities managers, and engineers to deliver custom, high-quality outcomes.

What you’ll do
  • Install, program, and commission direct digital control (DDC) systems for HVAC equipment—controllers, sensors, actuators, and network devices.
  • Perform testing, verification, and troubleshooting to achieve reliable, optimized performance.
  • Collaborate with engineering and project teams on sequences of operation and control strategies.
  • Lead and mentor a field team through installations, upgrades, and repairs of DDC systems.
  • Deliver hands-on training and technical guidance to junior technicians.
  • Execute routine and preventive maintenance to maximize uptime and efficiency.
  • Diagnose and resolve complex DDC and HVAC control issues.
  • Maintain precise records of configurations, changes, and updates.
  • Stay current with emerging technologies and best practices in HVAC controls.
What you bring
  • 5+ years as an HVAC controls technician focused on DDC systems.
  • Deep knowledge of HVAC equipment, control theory, and field devices.
  • Hands-on programming/configuration with DDC platforms (e.g., Niagara 4/ ax, Johnson, Distech, Honeywell).
  • Experience integrating with building management systems (BMS) and other automation platforms.
  • Fluency with BACnet, Modbus, and LonWorks protocols.
  • Ability to read/interpret control schematics, wiring diagrams, and specifications.
  • Advanced troubleshooting and analytical skills.
  • Team leadership experience with the ability to supervise and guide technicians.
  • Strong organization and time management to handle multiple projects.
  • Clear, professional communication for clients, colleagues, and subcontractors.
  • Relevant controls/DDC programming certifications preferred.
Why join us

Work alongside a seasoned team that values craftsmanship, collaboration, and customer success. At Pheonix Controls, you’ll have the autonomy to lead in the field and the backing of a company known for quality and follow-through.
