As our Lead Plumbing Installation Specialist, you are the primary driver of our residential and light commercial installation projects, whole-home repipes, and custom remodels. While you will have an apprentice/helper to assist you, this is a highly active, hands-on leadership role. You will be actively mapping out layouts, cutting and fitting systems, and executing the heavy physical installation work alongside your helper to ensure a clean, efficient, and code-compliant build.

The Schedule: Dependable Monday through Friday day shifts (8-hour blocks) with consistent overtime available. (Note: This is a dedicated installation position and is exempt from our standard 24/7 emergency repair on-call rotation).

• Read and interpret blueprints, schematic drawings, and building layouts to map out precise plumbing runs.

• Actively work on the physical installation, assembly, and securing of new water supply lines, drainage systems, and waste vents (using copper, PEX, PVC, and cast iron).

• Manage and work alongside an installation helper, teaching them the trade while keeping the project moving efficiently.

• Lead the physical installation and commissioning of heavy equipment, including tankless water heaters, water filtration networks, and premium fixtures.

• Execute clean whole-home repipes and structural rough-ins for bathrooms and kitchens, ensuring the customer's property is protected and left spotless.

• Conduct strict pressure tests on air, gas, and water lines to guarantee leak-free system integrity before final sign-off.

• Field Experience: Strong, proven track record leading residential or commercial plumbing installation projects and rough-ins.

• Licensing: No formal license required, though holding an active Journeyman or Master Plumber card is highly preferred and a major plus.

• Blueprint Competency: Ability to independently interpret prints and layout a project from scratch.

• Leadership Style: A "lead-by-example" work ethic—willing to hustle, handle heavy materials, and work hard alongside your apprentice.

• Compliance: High school diploma or equivalent, a valid driver's license with a clean record, and authorization to work in the U.S. without sponsorship.

• Ability to safely lift, position, and maneuver heavy piping and equipment up to 100 lbs with assistance.

• Comfort working in tight, dark, or restricted spaces including trenches, crawlspaces, and structural framing.

• Ability to climb ladders, operate heavy installation machinery, and stand for long durations.

• Resilience to work safely in variable indoor and outdoor construction environments.

Master Plumbers Heating and Cooling is an equal opportunity employer dedicated to a professional, safe, and drug-free work culture.
