DraftBench is an AI-powered recruitment platform built exclusively for HVAC manufacturers. Get matched candidates continuously for a flat monthly fee, not 30% of every salary.
Traditional executive search charges 30-35% of first-year salary. For a $150K engineering manager, that's $45K-$52K for a single hire.
Retained search firms take months to deliver candidates. Meanwhile, your projects stall and competitors poach the talent you need.
Generic platforms like LinkedIn don't understand chiller systems, refrigerant certifications, or BAS controls. You need industry-native matching.
Describe the position, required certifications, experience level, and location. Our system understands HVAC terminology natively.
DraftBench scans across platforms to identify, score, and rank candidates based on technical fit, culture alignment, and availability.
Get matched profiles delivered to your dashboard. Reach out directly or let DraftBench handle initial outreach on your behalf.

DraftBench was built by people in the HVAC manufacturing industry, not generic tech recruiters. We understand the difference between a chiller technician and a controls engineer, between an OEM manufacturer and a mechanical contractor.
That means better matches, faster fills, and candidates who actually understand your business.
Every manufacturer is fighting for the same shrinking talent pool. The companies that build a systematic, always-on recruitment pipeline will win. DraftBench is that pipeline.
