STRAIGHT ANSWERS ON SALARIES, CAREERS, AND HIRING ACROSS BAS AND SMART BUILDINGS, POWERED BY VIGO’S SMARTHIRE DATA
VIGO Recruitment is a specialist BAS (Building Automation Systems) recruiter serving Texas, including Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin, Houston, and San Antonio.
We recruit field, service, commissioning, application, controls, sales, and project roles across building automation, smart buildings, and data-center environments.
We cover the whole Texas market, led by the major metros: Dallas–Fort Worth (DFW), Austin, Houston, and San Antonio.
Our focus follows the data-center and smart-buildings growth concentrated across these areas.
We recruit across all the major US building-automation platforms: Tridium Niagara (N4), Johnson Controls Metasys, Automated Logic WebCTRL, Honeywell, Siemens Desigo, Schneider EcoStruxure, Delta Controls, Distech, Alerton, Reliable Controls, and KMC.
We also cover the core protocols — BACnet (BACnet/IP and MS/TP), LonWorks, and Modbus.
Yes. Data centers and mission-critical environments are a core focus of our Texas practice.
We place BMS, EPMS, and controls commissioning talent for hyperscale and colocation facilities across DFW, Austin, and the wider state.
Salaries vary by role, platform experience, and location, but BAS engineering roles in Texas typically range from around $90,000 to $120,000-plus depending on seniority and specialism.
For current, data-backed benchmarks by role and metro, use our Salary Survey — powered by SmartHire, our live market-intelligence platform.
You can browse our current Texas BAS openings online, or submit your resume and we'll match you to roles that fit your platform experience and location.
Because we track the market live, we often know about roles before they're advertised.
We help Texas integrators, controls contractors, and mechanical firms hire hard-to-find BAS talent faster, using live market data rather than guesswork.
Every shortlist is evidence-led: matched on platform (Niagara, Metasys, WebCTRL and others), location, and real availability.
We combine specialist BAS focus with live market intelligence through SmartHire, our proprietary analytics platform.
That means we can see talent movement, salary trends, and role demand across Texas — so clients get accurate shortlists and candidates get honest, informed advice.
Field and service engineers, commissioning engineers, application and software engineers, controls and integration specialists, project managers and project engineers, BAS sales and account engineers, and commercial or leadership roles.
VIGO operates in the United States with a dedicated Texas practice, and also operates in the United Kingdom.
Our Texas team recruits locally across DFW, Austin, Houston, and San Antonio, applying the same specialist, data-led model to the US market.
Speed depends on the role and platform, but because we maintain a live map of Texas BAS talent, we can often present qualified, local candidates far faster than a cold search.
For hard-to-fill controls and commissioning roles, that market visibility is the difference.
Yes. Alongside core BAS engineering, we recruit for commissioning (Cx) and retro-commissioning, energy optimization, and decarbonization roles across commercial and mission-critical projects in Texas.
