About this role
VSC Fire & Security is looking for a Sprinkler Fitter to join their Springfield, Virginia team on a full-time basis. You'll install and test fire suppression systems on commercial and industrial sites, working from engineered plans while communicating with supervisors and clients about any design adjustments needed to fit real-world conditions. The role involves both hands-on installation work and oversight—you may direct helpers and apprentices to keep projects on schedule—along with responsibility for on-site materials and safety compliance.
The position requires at least one year of pipefitting experience specific to fire sprinkler systems and fire protection codes. You'll need strong attention to detail, the ability to read plans and safety signage, and reliable communication skills. A valid driver's license with a clean record is essential, as you'll use company vehicles to move between job sites. Prior experience in construction, plumbing, or fire protection is a plus but not required; what matters most is your foundation in sprinkler work and your commitment to professional development.
VSC offers competitive compensation between $23 and $30 per hour based on experience, with overtime eligibility, comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, and vision coverage, paid time off, and company-paid life and disability insurance. The company also covers NICET certification test reimbursement, provides all necessary PPE and work apparel, and supports advancement opportunities within the organization.
