Let’s be direct—If you’re currently working in a shop where:
- You’re constantly fighting broken machines
- Parts are always “on order”
- Ownership won’t spend money to fix things right
- And you’re expected to keep it all running anyway…
This is your opportunity to get out of that cycle.
About Us - Pines Plaza Lanes is a family-owned, 20-lane bowling center with over 70 years in business. We are a high-lineage, league-driven house (80% league play) that takes pride in running a clean, well-maintained operation.We are not a “run it until it dies” center.
We invest in our equipment, our parts inventory, and our people.What You’ll Be Working On
- AMF 82-90XL pinspotters
- ACCU (TS2) scoring systems
- Kegel Kustodian Walker & Model C lane machines
You’ll have:
- A solid parts inventory (not scraps and guesswork)
- Equipment that’s already in good operating condition
- Ownership that supports fixing things the right way
What We’re Looking For
- A mechanic who knows their way around 82-90XL machines
- Strong troubleshooting skills (you don’t just swap parts—you solve problems)
- Basic electrical knowledge
- Someone who takes pride in their shop and owns the outcome
If you’re currently a strong B mechanic ready to step up, we’ll train you.
If you’re already an A mechanic, we’ll give you the environment you’ve been missing.Compensation
- $50,000 – $70,000 depending on experience

Why This Job Is Different - You won’t be walking into a mess.
- We already have a strong frames-per-stop performance
