******$10K Sign-On Bonus******

 

Are you tired of grueling on-call shifts, extreme weather work, crawlspaces, and endless driving from job to job? If you're an experienced HVACR technician wondering if there's a better way to use your hard-earned skills without the physical burnout, it's time to step out of the field and into the classroom.

Universal Technical Institute (UTI) is looking for seasoned HVACR professionals ready for a stable, rewarding career change where your expertise is valued, your body gets a break, and your weekends finally belong to you.

  • Pass It On: Use your years of troubleshooting and technical know-how to mentor the next generation of technicians, helping them avoid the mistakes you learned the hard way.

What We Offer You & Your Family

  • Sign-On Bonus: $10,000
  • Pay Rate: $35 -$38 per hour
  • Paid Training: Comprehensive onboarding so you feel confident from day one—no prior teaching experience required.
  • Tuition Waiver: Available after 6 months of employment for you AND your immediate family across UTI and Concorde campuses.
  • Paid Time Off: Robust programs covering vacation, sick leave, flexibility, and holidays.
  • Retirement Matching: 50% match on the first 6% of your contributions after 90 days.
  • Paid Parental Leave: 4 weeks of paid leave for both birthing and non-birthing parents.
  • Comprehensive Benefits: Health, vision, and dental coverage starting the first of the month following one full month of employment.
  • Pet Insurance: Coverage for your furry family members through ASPCA.

  • Promote Safety: Instill safety procedures and best practices in a secure, well-equipped workshop setting.

Qualifications

  • Experience: 4 years of practical work experience in the HVACR field within the past 10 years (excludes teaching)
