Careers at Pepcal Heating & Air

Now Hiring HVAC Technicians & Support Staff in San Antonio, TX

This Isn’t Just a Job. It’s a Place to Build Something.

A lot of HVAC companies are hiring right now. Most of them will offer you a truck, a route, and a quota — and leave you feeling like a number on a service board rather than a person who matters to the company.

Pepcal Heating & Air is different. And we’re not just saying that because it sounds good on a hiring page.

We’re a family-owned company built on the belief that the way you treat your team is reflected in the work they deliver — and in how customers feel when that work is done. Since 2013, we’ve built a reputation in San Antonio for integrity, craftsmanship, and doing right by the people we serve. That reputation starts from the inside. It starts with the people who wear our name on their shirt every day.

If you’re a technician who takes pride in doing the job correctly. If you’re tired of working for a company that pushes volume over quality. If you want to be somewhere that respects your skills, invests in your growth, and treats you the way you’d want to be treated — we’d like to talk.

What Working at Pepcal Actually Looks Like

Systems designed
We want to be honest about what you’re stepping into — because the right person for our team isn’t just looking for the highest paying offer. They’re looking for the right fit.

At Pepcal, you’ll work alongside people who genuinely care about doing the job right. You won’t be pressured to upsell customers on things they don’t need. You won’t be sent to do shoddy work because the schedule is overloaded. You won’t be treated like a replaceable part in a machine.

What you will find is a team that holds itself to a real standard — and that standard comes from the top. Pepe built this company on three generations of mechanical heritage and a belief that HVAC work reflects character. That belief runs through everything we do, including how we hire and how we treat the people who join us.

You’ll work on properly diagnosed jobs with the time and resources to do them correctly. You’ll be backed by leadership that supports your decisions when you do the right thing for a customer. You’ll be part of a company that San Antonio homeowners have trusted with over 500 five-star reviews — and you’ll understand why when you see how we operate.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re not looking for the technician who can get in and out the fastest. We’re looking for the technician who takes the time to find the actual problem and fix it correctly.

The right person for our team shares a few things in common regardless of their experience level:

They care about doing quality work and it shows in how they approach every job, not just the ones they think someone is watching. They’re honest with customers — they explain what they find in plain language and give straightforward recommendations, even when the honest answer isn’t the most profitable one. They take pride in their trade. HVAC is a skilled profession that makes a real difference in people’s lives — especially in San Antonio’s heat — and they understand that. They’re reliable. They show up on time, they communicate clearly, and they follow through on what they say they’ll do. They’re a fit for our culture — faith-based, family-oriented, accountable, and focused on the long game rather than short-term shortcuts.

What We Offer

We know that competitive compensation matters, and we take it seriously. But we also know that the best technicians are looking for more than a paycheck — they’re looking for a place worth showing up to every day.

Here’s what Pepcal offers:

Competitive pay that reflects your experience, your skills, and the quality of your work — not a flat rate that treats a master tech the same as someone just starting out. Paid training and continuing education because the HVAC industry evolves and we want our team staying ahead of it, not falling behind. Clear advancement pathways — we’re a growing company, and we promote from within. If you want to grow into a lead tech, a senior installer, or a different role as the company expands, we’d rather develop that person from inside our team than hire from outside. A supportive, team-focused culture where your coworkers have your back and leadership is accessible — not a distant corporate structure where you never know who’s actually in charge. Work that you can be proud of, because we don’t cut corners. When you’re the technician on a job, you have the support and the standards to do it the way it should be done. Respect for your time and your life outside of work, because we understand that the best employees are people with full lives — not people who’ve traded everything for a job.

That’s not a burden. It’s a standard — and it’s one that makes the work meaningful. Every technician who joins this team becomes part of that standard. We take that seriously, and we think the right person will too.
We’re not the biggest HVAC company in San Antonio. We’re not trying to be. We’re trying to be the best one to work for — and the most trusted one to call. Those two things are connected, and they both depend on having the right people.
If you think that’s you, we’d genuinely like to hear from you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to be licensed to apply?
For technician positions, EPA 608 certification and a valid Texas HVAC license are preferred. However, if you’re in the process of obtaining your license and have strong hands-on experience, we encourage you to reach out. We’re interested in the right person, not just the right paperwork.
What does the interview process look like?
We keep it straightforward. We want to meet you, understand your background, and get a sense of how you approach your work. We’re not looking for someone who can nail a rehearsed interview — we’re looking for someone who’s genuine about who they are and what they bring to the table.
What areas do your technicians serve?
We serve Alamo Ranch, Helotes, Leon Valley, West San Antonio, Northwest San Antonio, and the surrounding Loop 1604 communities. Local candidates are preferred.
Do you hire entry-level technicians?
We consider candidates at various experience levels when the foundation and attitude are right. If you’re newer to the trade, be upfront about where you are — we appreciate honesty more than an inflated resume.
Is this a full-time position?
Yes. We are looking for committed, full-time team members who want to build something long-term — not seasonal workers or part-time fill-ins.
