At Culligan, we help customers enjoy better water through reliable water treatment equipment and service. We’re looking for a motivated individual to learn how to maintain, inspect, and help keep water treatment systems operating properly.

  • Learn basic troubleshooting and how to recognize equipment that isn't operating properly.
  • Assist with maintaining equipment performance and reliability.
  • Follow established procedures and safety guidelines.
  • Keep tools, equipment, and work areas clean and organized.
  • Work alongside experienced team members to develop your mechanical and technical skills.

What We're Looking For

  • Some mechanical, maintenance, plumbing, electrical, or hands-on technical experience preferred.
  • A willingness to learn and take direction from experienced technicians.
  • Good problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
  • Dependability, a positive attitude, and a strong work ethic.
  • Ability to use basic hand tools or willingness to learn.
  • Ability to work independently as skills develop and as part of a team.
  • A valid driver's license and acceptable driving record may be required, depending on job duties.

What We Offer

  • Starting pay of $17.00 per hour while training.
  • Opportunity for a pay review after successful completion of training, based on demonstrated skills, performance, and readiness to take on additional responsibilities.
  • Consistent Monday–Friday schedule, 8:00 AM–4:30 PM.
  • No weekend work required.
  • Hands-on training and the opportunity to develop valuable technical skills.
  • Opportunities to grow your knowledge of mechanical systems, equipment maintenance, and troubleshooting.
  • A supportive team environment where you can learn on the job.
