Why Work for General Parts?
While we are customer driven, we are also employee oriented. Our high employee retention rate and continuous investment in training ensures that we respond to our customers’ needs with the most qualified and professional people in the industry.
The Field Service Technician is responsible for traveling to restaurant locations to diagnose, repair, and maintain commercial kitchen equipment—including hot-side appliances, refrigeration units, and light HVAC systems. This role requires operating a company vehicle safely, delivering prompt and reliable service, and ensuring minimal downtime for restaurant operations. The technician must provide exceptional customer support, communicate clearly with kitchen and management staff, and work independently with little supervision.
We value your hard work and are proud of our competitive pay for performance philosophy. The hourly rate ranges from $30-$48 hourly, depending on experience.
