Fire Protection Services NYC Jobs – Inside the Work That Keeps the City Safe
Every Day, Master Fire Technicians Protect New York’s Restaurants and Buildings.
Behind every working fire suppression system in New York City is a skilled technician from Master Fire Systems — the people who climb ladders, test panels, recharge cylinders, and make sure kitchens stay open and compliant.
Our FDNY-certified field techs spend their days inspecting hoods, replacing fusible links, tagging extinguishers, and troubleshooting alarms — often before sunrise and long after closing time. It’s a job built on responsibility, teamwork, and craftsmanship.
At 1776 E. Tremont Avenue in the Bronx, we coordinate dozens of inspections daily across all five boroughs — from restaurant exhaust systems in Queens to high-rise sprinkler tests in Midtown.
The Technician’s Routine
Being an NYC fire protection technician means knowing how to keep every system ready for inspection or emergency.
Here’s what a typical Master Fire field day looks like:
1. Inspect suppression systems — verify nozzle alignment, check pressure, replace fusible links.
2. Service extinguishers — recharge, hydro-test, and tag Class K and ABC units on-site.
3. Test alarms & controls — confirm detection circuits and pull boxes meet FDNY specs.
4. Record results digitally — upload inspection reports directly from the field via tablet.
5. Communicate clearly — update dispatch, managers, and restaurant owners on any required repairs.
