Description
Are you the tech everyone calls when the A/C quits in the middle of a Texas July? Beck at Wells Branch is hiring an experienced Apartment Maintenance Technician to help keep our 576-home North Austin community running smoothly.
Beck is under new ownership and new management, and we're building a service team that takes pride in doing things right the first time. With two resort-style pools, a 24-hour fitness center, a spin and yoga studio, and a resident café, there's always something to keep a skilled tech busy, and plenty of room to show what you can do.
What Your Day Looks Like
Most mornings start with a look at the work-order queue alongside your Service Manager, then it's time to tackle priority requests: diagnosing HVAC systems, repairing appliances, and handling plumbing, electrical, carpentry, drywall, and paint. Between service calls, you'll help turn vacant apartments into move-in-ready homes, keep up with preventative maintenance on water heaters, A/C units, and lighting, and keep the shop clean and organized. You'll also share your know-how with newer technicians and take your turn on the after-hours emergency rotation.
What You Bring
- EPA Section 608 Type II and Type III (or Universal) certification, required
- 2–3 years of hands-on maintenance experience in at least two areas, such as HVAC, plumbing, electrical, appliance repair, or carpentry
- Certified Pool Operator (CPO) certification is a plus
- Confidence handling complex repairs on your own
- A friendly, professional approach with residents
- Reliable transportation and a phone you can be reached on after hours
- Ability to lift up to 100 lbs occasionally and work on ladders, rooftops, and in tight spaces
Schedule
Full-time, with some evenings and weekends and a rotating on-call schedule.
Pay & Perks
- $23–$26 per hour, based on experience
- Medical, dental, vision, life, and disability benefits, along with a 401(k) plan with immediate vesting
We're an equal opportunity employer, and reasonable accommodations are available for qualified applicants with disabilities.
