Maintenance Technician

Location: Truckee and North Lake Tahoe, CA

Compensation: $33-$36/Hour Performance-Based Bonuses

Employment Type: Full-Time, Nights and Weekends Expected

About Us

We are a fast-growing vacation rental and property management company based in Truckee and North Lake Tahoe. We take pride in delivering five-star experiences for our homeowners and guests, and we believe a well-maintained home is at the heart of that. Our team is tight-knit, collaborative, and genuinely invested in the success of every property in our portfolio.

About the Role

This role keeps our portfolio running. You'll handle a wide range of maintenance and repair work across our properties, from diagnosing a faulty thermostat to reinforcing a deck to installing a smart lock. No two days look the same, and the work is hands-on, varied, and genuinely useful.

This is a role for someone who takes pride in doing things right the first time, communicates clearly, and works well as part of a coordinated team. You'll partner closely with our maintenance coordinator and field team to keep properties guest-ready and owners confident in the care their home receives.

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct property assessments to identify deferred maintenance, safety issues, and necessary or reasonable upgrades or repairs, and perform general property maintenance and repair work as needed
• Perform general carpentry, including deck and railing maintenance and small deck restaining
• Perform minor plumbing repairs such as leaking faucets and running toilets
• Troubleshoot and diagnose issues with thermostats, hot water heaters, and furnaces
• Patch, texture, and paint drywall
• Install, troubleshoot, and repair appliances, and assist with appliance upgrades
• Repair and install window screens
• Assist with property furnishings and punch-list work, including furniture assembly, hanging art, and installing blinds and window coverings
• Troubleshoot locks and latches, and install smart locks and related hardware
• Replace and upgrade light fixtures and switches for comfort and compatibility
• Perform deep cleaning such as pressure washing decks, garages, and other hard surfaces
• Complete seasonal yard cleanup, including pine needle raking, with interest in learning defensible space best practices
• Handle general pest control and minor exterior repair work
• Assist the field team with inspections and property readiness for guests, tenants, and owners
• Provide cost estimates for repair and improvement projects

What We're Looking For

• A skilled handyman with hands-on trade experience across plumbing, electrical basics, general repair, and property maintenance
• A problem solver who diagnoses efficiently, starting with the most likely cause rather than the worst case
• Able to scope a job accurately and provide realistic cost estimates
• A clear, direct communicator, comfortable asking questions and giving straight answers
• A genuine team player who works well within a coordinated team, not solely independently
• Open to certifications that expand the role, such as Defensible Space or hot tub/spa maintenance, with company support to pursue them
• Room to grow within the company for the right person, though we're equally happy with someone who wants to excel as a technician without moving into a supervisory track
• Comfortable taking direction from a technical, hands-on leadership team
• Based in Truckee or North Lake Tahoe with a valid driver's license and reliable vehicle (required)

Why You'll Love It

• Steady, varied work across a well-maintained, growing portfolio
• Support and investment in certifications that expand your skill set
• Competitive hourly pay with performance-based bonuses
• 401(k) with company match
• Health, dental, and vision coverage
• Paid holidays and paid time off
