Daikin Comfort Technologies is cranking up the hiring in Waller, with plans to bring on roughly 400 production workers and a one-stop career fair set for Friday, June 19, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the company’s local manufacturing campus. The open roles are for production team members who assemble heating and air conditioning systems. Starting pay is listed at $14.66 an hour, and the company says benefits kick in on day one. Recruiters will be on site to meet applicants and can line up next steps on the same day.
About the Waller campus
The hiring event will take place at Daikin Texas Technology Park at 19001 Kermier Road, the sprawling complex Daikin describes as about 4.2 million square feet and one of the largest single-roof manufacturing sites in the United States. The facility consolidates production for the Goodman, Amana and Daikin brands, according to Daikin Comfort Technologies.
Event details and pay
The June 19 career fair is focused on filling roughly 400 production team positions, with recruiters available from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Positions start at $14.66 per hour and include benefits beginning on the first day, and applicants can meet recruiters and potentially schedule follow-up steps on the spot, according to the Houston Chronicle. “We’re thrilled to be adding 400 new jobs,” Kristi Pittman, Daikin’s senior vice president of human resources, told the Chronicle.
How to apply
Those planning to attend are encouraged to bring a photo ID and an up-to-date resume and to arrive early to beat the lines. Job seekers who cannot make the event can still throw their hat in the ring by viewing openings and applying through the company’s online careers portal via Daikin. The hiring push underscores the Waller campus’s ongoing role as a major regional employer in the Houston suburbs.
