Technician

What is a technician?

A technician is a member of one of our external services groups who is responsible for the inspection, testing, maintenance (ITM), and installation of our customers' equipment. At Webb, Murray & Associates, a technician gains the knowledge and experience to perform detailed inspections of fire protection and alarm systems and to make the necessary repairs for system and equipment problems found during inspections. A technician is also able to perform system troubleshooting and to isolate system problems during emergency call-outs. Many technicians are responsible for scheduling their own work, ordering equipment, and seeing a job through to its completion.

Above all, Webb, Murray is looking for intelligent people who are trustworthy, who want to increase their knowledge and skills, and who enjoy both personal responsibility and teamwork.

As an entry-level technician you should have basic skills in mechanical and/or electrical work, but your real expertise will be gained through on-the-job training and experience. You'll begin by assisting one of our lead technicians on actual ITM or installation jobs. In time, you'll develop a comprehensive knowledge of sprinkler systems, foam fire extinguishing systems, carbon dioxide systems, wet and dry chemical systems, clean agent systems, gas detection systems, state-of-the-art fire alarm and plant alarm systems, and other installations and devices. During your first 12 months as a technician, you'll be required to pass the examinations for your state's fire alarm technician license and fire extinguisher technician license, for which Webb, Murray will furnish training and study materials.

Opportunities for technicians

As you learn and develop your technical skills, you'll have opportunities to assume greater responsibilities, to coordinate jobs, and to serve as our contact with our customers and their engineers. Senior technicians who have demonstrated superior knowledge and interpersonal skills can advance to the position of a senior leader, who is responsible for an entire external services group. Some technicians decide to pursue further studies, pass various levels of NICET certification, and become system designers, working with computer aided design (CAD) systems at our central design location. Other technicians who have continued their education and have developed strong organizational skills are sometimes assigned project management roles.

We're personally interested in each of our associates. If you believe you have the qualities we're looking for in a technician, we'd like to discuss your future and tell you more about Webb, Murray & Associates. Please call Pamela Owen at 281-480-0025, extension 276, for more information.
