What are the responsibilities and job description for the Christmas Light Installation Technician position at Stellar Window Wash?
GET PAID TO WORK OUTSIDE, CLIMB, AND BUILD SOMETHING AWESOME.
Want a job where you don't sit behind a desk all day?
Get paid to work outside, climb, work with your hands, and turn houses into incredible Christmas light displays.
Stellar Window Wash is building one of the premier Christmas light installation companies in the Boise area, and we're looking for a handful of hard-working, dependable people to join our Christmas Light Team for the 2026 season.
This isn't your typical seasonal labor job.
You'll work outside with a small crew, spend your days moving and working with your hands, and finish each job by seeing the transformation you've created.
And yes — you'll probably have a pretty good time doing it.
WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY DO
You'll work as part of a 2-person installation crew transforming homes throughout the Boise area.
Your day may include:
- Climbing ladders and working on roofs
- Installing professional Christmas lighting systems
- Cutting and assembling custom-fit light strands
- Working with hand tools and installation equipment
- Following Stellar's installation and safety systems
- Keeping jobsites clean and professional
- Interacting respectfully with homeowners
- Taking pride in creating a finished product that looks exceptional from the street
Every house is different, and every finished project is something you can actually see and be proud of.
WHO IS THIS JOB FOR?
You do not need Christmas light experience.
We'll train you.
What matters much more is who you are and how you work.
You may be a great fit if you're a:
- Climber
- Mountain biker
- Dirt biker
- Athlete
- Tradesperson
- Outdoor enthusiast
- College student looking for a great seasonal job
Or maybe you're simply someone who would rather spend the day moving around and accomplishing something than sitting behind a computer.
We're looking for people who are:
RELIABLE — You show up on time and do what you say you'll do.
HARD-WORKING — You're willing to hustle when the day gets busy.
COACHABLE — You can learn a system and follow it.
SAFETY-MINDED — You take ladders, roofs, equipment, and your teammates seriously.
DETAIL-ORIENTED — Great Christmas lights aren't just about getting them up. They need to look clean and professional.
TEAM-ORIENTED — You'll spend a lot of time working closely with your crew.
PROFESSIONAL — You're working at people's homes and representing the Stellar brand.
YOUR PAY & ADVANCEMENT PATH
We don't believe great employees should be stuck at the same pay rate.
At Stellar, you have a clear path to advance as you develop your skills, take on responsibility, and consistently produce great work.

Top performers can reach $30 /hr in total weekly compensation through advancement and performance bonuses.
After Christmas, we continue to reward performance. During January–February, technicians can earn an additional $50/week for hitting established production goals.
THIS CAN BE MORE THAN A SEASONAL JOB
Christmas lights are the focus for the fall and holiday season, but Stellar Window Wash is a year-round exterior cleaning company.
For the right people, this can become an opportunity to continue working with us beyond Christmas — including:
- Window cleaning
- House washing
- Gutter cleaning
- Pressure washing
- Solar panel cleaning
- Other exterior services
Our goal isn't simply to hire seasonal labor.
We want to find great people, train them well, and give them an opportunity to grow.
If you crush it during Christmas season, we'd rather keep you than start over with someone new next year.
Training begins: September 28th
Christmas light production begins: October 5th
Peak season: October–February
The workload increases significantly as we get closer to Christmas, so reliability and availability during the peak season are extremely important.
This is an active outdoor job and requires the ability to work on ladders and roofs for extended periods in changing weather conditions.
⭐ WHY STELLAR?
We're not interested in becoming another company that throws a couple guys in a van and tells them to "go hang Christmas lights."
We're building a premium Christmas lighting company.
That means:
- Professional equipment
- Detailed training
- Repeatable systems
- High-quality installations
- Safe work practices
- Professional customer service
- A team that takes pride in what it does
We're looking for people who want to become really good at something, not people who are simply looking for somewhere to punch a clock.
SOUND LIKE YOU?
Apply through Indeed.
In your application, tell us:

3. Have you worked at heights, on roofs, with tools, or in a physically demanding job before?

We aren't looking for a perfect résumé.
We're looking for reliable, motivated people who are ready to work hard, learn quickly, and have some fun while doing it.
If that sounds like you, we want to hear from you.
