Job Description

Elevator Modernization Technician 
 Hagerstown, MD (Local projects across DC / Baltimore region)

Up to $60/hour + overtime, full benefits & relocation support

A fast-growing independent elevator services group, backed by a publicly traded parent company, is expanding its Modernization & Projects team due to sustained national growth and long-term project demand. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Modernization Technician looking for top-of-market pay, stable local projects, and genuine long-term career progression.

This organisation is focused on reinvestment, transparency, and promoting from within, offering technicians a clear future as the company continues to expand across the U.S.

The Role

You'll work within the Projects / Modernization division, delivering full modernizations and major repairs on hydraulic and traction elevators. This role is focused on longer-term, local projects, providing consistency and structure rather than constant travel.

Key Responsibilities

Complete full elevator modernizations and heavy repairs
Install and commission microprocessor controllers and door equipment
Carry out wiring, fixtures, hoist machines, pumping units, ropes, and packings
Perform inspections and annual safety tests in line with OSHA and regulatory standards
Assess existing equipment and advise on upgrades or modifications
Work independently or as part of a two-person modernization team
Maintain high standards of safety, quality, and customer communication 

Experience & Qualifications

Licensed Elevator Mechanic or Certified Elevator Technician
4+ years' experience in elevator modernization or heavy repair
Strong hydraulic and traction elevator knowledge
Confident with electrical diagnostics, controllers, and testing equipment
Safety-first mindset and professional customer approach
Full driving licence
Comfortable with physical demands of elevator work 

Pay, Benefits & Progression

Up to $60/hour (flexible for the right experience)
Overtime paid at enhanced rates
Free health insurance for single coverage
Low-cost family and dependent healthcare options
401(k) with company match
Company vehicle provided
Funded training and CET development
Clear progression routes into senior technician, adjuster, management, or leadership roles
Relocation package potentially available 

Why This Role Stands Out

You'll be joining a business with a long-term vision, significant ongoing investment in technicians, and a proven track record of internal promotion. As the group continues to grow and open new branches, experienced technicians are given opportunities to progress into specialist or leadership positions.
