Gulfstream recruits project managers, superintendents, estimators, service technicians and managers, BAS/controls technicians and VDC/BIM detailers for union and merit-shop commercial mechanical contractors in the metro. Every search is confidential.

Held source rates before fringes, not Gulfstream job offers or a single HVAC pay scale. Classifications and effective dates differ. Confirm current rates and project jurisdiction with the hall. Gulfstream is independent of these unions; listings do not establish contractor affiliation.

Commercial mechanical hiring in New York

For high-rise retrofits, healthcare and institutional work, define the actual assignment before selecting a candidate. Include the borough or Long Island work location, occupied-building access and central-plant experience. These are search scoping topics, not a list of current projects or vacancies.

HVAC contractor jobs and chilled-water service in New York

Hiring a service technician, chiller specialist or controls programmer? Specify the equipment, refrigerants, hydronic systems and DDC/BACnet responsibilities involved. Separate troubleshooting and ongoing service from installation, startup and commissioning; identify required certifications rather than assuming they apply to every role.

Mechanical project leadership in New York

For PMs, estimators, superintendents and BIM/VDC staff, describe the HVAC, plumbing or piping scope, project delivery responsibilities and coordination requirements. Your job order should identify the role, exact city and a message explaining the work. Gulfstream recruits commercial mechanical contractors from its Corona office; this page does not represent a local office, union dispatch or a guaranteed opening.
