Description
Are you passionate about developing technicians into elite performers? Do you thrive at the intersection of hands-on technical expertise and structured learning design?
We’re looking for a Training Curriculum Content Developer to architect and elevate a world-class technical training program for HVACR professionals.
This is not a maintenance role — this is a build, evolve, and scale opportunity. You will design the roadmap and create the content — lesson plans, hands-on exercises, assessments, and materials — while facilitating training sessions when needed. Today, this is a high-impact team-of-one role. Tomorrow, it has the potential to grow into a small, dedicated training team under your leadership. 30% travel is required.
Fieldpiece is a thriving team of innovators - committed to pushing boundaries and celebrating curiosity. We’ve been providing HVACR professionals with rugged, feature-rich tools like meters, manifolds, leak detectors, and more since 1990. Fieldpiece leads the industry in the way we think, work, collaborate, and remain laser-focused on creating products that empower HVACR professionals – today and tomorrow. If you thrive in an environment where challenges are embraced, ambiguity fuels innovation, and relationships are built on trust and transparency—this is your opportunity.
Recognized as one of Southern California’s Best Places to Work (2023, 2024 & 2025), we provide a Hire-to-Retire philosophy, hybrid schedule, and a culture of curiosity – a place where you’ll have the support to innovate boldly, grow continuously, and make a tangible impact on an industry that powers everyday life.
Based in Orange, CA today—with an exciting move to a brand-new Tustin office in mid-2027.
What You’ll Build and Lead:
- A structured, scalable technical training roadmap with sequential learning tracks that accelerate technicians from junior to senior performance levels
- Practical, real-world curriculum that bridges trade-school gaps and is aligned to real-world HVACR field performance
- Measurable competency-based learning outcomes with progression paths and prerequisites across product and application categories
- Certification programs and potential revenue-generating training pathways with FP University and other LMS systems
- Engaging, consistent training standards across live, virtual, mobile, and on-demand platforms
- Partnerships with contractors, distributors, ambassadors, and subject-matter experts to ensure relevance
- Training infrastructure and onboarding support at our new Tustin facility
Qualifications
- 5+ years building technical training programs or curriculum
- Hands-on HVACR expertise (technician or trainer background preferred)
- Proven ability to create structured learning tracks and certifications from scratch
- Strong instructional design and LMS experience (live + virtual environments)
- Ability to simplify complex technical concepts into practical, hands-on learning
- Comfortable operating independently in a fast-evolving environment
- Strong communication and presentation skills
- EPA 608 Certification
