About Josh Hammer

I’m Josh Hammer, Director of Special Projects at ThermaServe Mechanical Systems Services in Jacksonville, Florida. I manage the sale and support the delivery of mechanical projects, making sure they get done right from start to finish. I’ve worked in the construction and HVAC world with companies like Siemens, Johnson Controls, and Harper Limbach, picking up skills in mechanical systems, building automation, and energy solutions along the way. I’ve received my degrees in Chemical Engineering and Music Studies from the University of South Florida, which help me tackle problems with both logic and creativity.I started as a field project engineer, learning the ins and outs of the trade, and later trained in sales with Johnson Controls’ BEST program, diving deep into HVAC Equipment and controls. At Siemens, I built up a mechanical service business using a mix of traditional skills and new tech, always aiming to deliver world class service. Outside work, I play trombone, teach music to kids at my church, and focus on my family—my faith, wife and kids drive me every day. I’m all about finding practical solutions that make buildings work better for the people in them.
