HVAC — Software Developer

A senior software developer for hvac

An HVAC business juggles three different kinds of work at once: urgent call-outs that cannot wait, installations that take days and need the right crew and equipment, and maintenance visits that recur on contracts. When those three share one diary and one stock record badly, a call-out steals a technician from an install, a maintenance visit is forgotten, and a van arrives without the part the job needs. The diary looks full, but the work does not flow.

This engagement builds one HVAC firm's own system: customers, sites, jobs, contracts, and van stock for that firm alone, not a marketplace for trades and not a consumer booking site. It separates call-outs, installs, and maintenance into job types with their own scheduling rules, holds each customer's equipment and service history per site, and tracks van stock against the jobs that will consume it. Supplier ordering tools feed it; they do not replace the firm's job record.

The natural first slice is job scheduling itself, because diary clashes are the failure customers feel first. Book a free discovery call and the fit is tested on a real week of call-outs, installs, and maintenance visits, with the scheduler describing where the current diary breaks.

Jobs, vans, and service contracts

What an HVAC firm's own system has to schedule

  • Customer sites with equipment history — Each site holds its installed equipment, service history, and access notes, so a technician arriving at a property starts from what is actually fitted there.
  • Call-outs triaged, not just booked — Urgent jobs carry triage notes, priority, and required skills, so the nearest available technician is not automatically the right one for a complex fault.
  • Install jobs planned as multi-day work — Installations hold their stages, crew, equipment, and materials together, so a multi-day job is scheduled as a project, not as a series of unrelated diary entries.
  • Maintenance contracts with visit schedules — Service contracts generate their visit schedules per site, so a contract visit is never forgotten and never double-booked against an install.
  • Van stock tied to upcoming jobs — Van inventories are checked against the jobs ahead, so a technician is not dispatched to a job whose key part is not on the van.
  • Quotes, invoices, and warranties per job — Quotes, invoices, and warranty terms attach to the job they belong to, so a pricing or warranty query starts from the job record.
How it fits HVAC work

Built for call-outs, installs, and maintenance visits

HVAC scheduling has to respect skills, geography, and van contents at the same time, so the scheduling view shows all three: which technicians hold which qualifications, where they are, and what their vans carry. That is a harder view to build than a simple calendar, and it is the view that makes the system worth using, because a calendar that ignores skills and stock will be ignored by the scheduler. Field screens are kept to the job, the site, and the equipment, so a technician on a roof or in a plant room can work from a phone without office clutter.

The pilot runs on one team or one job type, with the old diary kept alongside until the new schedule matches reality on live jobs. The firm owns the code, the data, and the hosting, and job and contract histories export in readable form.

The order of work

From diary clashes to one job and contract record

  1. Reconstruct a week of clashes

    A real week of call-outs, installs, and maintenance visits is traced through the diary, and every clash, forgotten visit, and missing part is listed.

  2. Define sites, jobs, and contract records

    What a site holds, how job types differ in scheduling, and how contracts generate visits are agreed before building.

  3. Put scheduling live for one team

    The job scheduling view goes live for a pilot team on real jobs, and the test is whether clashes and forgotten visits fall.

  4. Add van stock, quotes, and warranties

    Van stock checks, quote and invoice linkage, and warranty records follow once scheduling is trusted, and handover leaves documented code and data.

Realistic outcomes

What changes when it works

When the system works, the diary stops being a source of clashes. Call-outs go to technicians who can actually fix the fault, installs are planned as multi-day work with their crews and materials, and maintenance visits happen on schedule because contracts generate them. The scheduler's week gets calmer, van stock surprises fall, and customers hear realistic arrival windows because the schedule behind them accounts for skills, location, and stock.

Why Omer

Why hire Omer

  • Scheduling that respects skills and stock: A job is matched to a technician with the right qualifications, in the right area, with the right van contents.
  • Three job types, not one diary: Call-outs, installs, and maintenance follow their own scheduling rules instead of competing blindly in one calendar.
  • Contract visits that cannot be forgotten: Maintenance schedules are generated from contracts, so a visit is a task with a date, not a hope.
  • Site history on arrival: A technician sees the equipment and service history of the site they are visiting before they start work.
  • Firm-owned job and contract history: Code, data, and hosting belong to the firm, and histories export cleanly.
FAQ

Questions, answered

How is this different from a generic field-service tool?
Generic tools schedule jobs well in general; this system is shaped to HVAC's three job types, equipment histories per site, and van-stock reality. If a generic tool already handles those cleanly for the firm, there is no case for building.
What about emergency call-outs out of hours?
Call-outs carry triage and priority, and the on-call view shows the right technician by skill and location, so an out-of-hours job is assigned on its merits rather than to whoever answers first.
Can customers see when a technician is coming?
A customer view can show the scheduled visit and its window from the job record, so the customer and the firm work from the same appointment. Arrival windows are set by the scheduler, not promised automatically by the system.
How are service contracts handled?
Each contract holds its sites, visit frequency, and terms, and visits are generated from it with dates, so a contract's obligations are visible as scheduled work rather than as a document in a drawer.
Do technicians need to learn a complex system?
No. Field views show the job, the site, and the equipment, with short entry for job outcomes and parts used. Anything that needs a desk stays on the desk view.
