Join Yard Techs as a Landscape Project Technician


Start your day early, lace up your boots, and head out knowing your work will actually matter. At Yard Techs, you will help transform residential properties across Southern California through irrigation, planting, lighting, and landscape improvement projects that clients notice right away. This is not a dead-end labor job. It is a hands-on opportunity to build real skill, earn more as you improve, and grow with a company that values hard work, independence, and doing the job right.

No two days look exactly the same. One day you may be repairing irrigation, the next installing landscape lighting, picking up plant material, or helping complete a full planting project. You will work with quality tools, take pride in clean installs, and be trusted to solve problems in the field. If you like working outdoors, staying active, and seeing the results of your effort at the end of the day, this role offers a career path with real upside.

What You’ll Do

After training, you will be expected to work independently and complete a wide range of landscape installation tasks, including:

  • Repairing and installing irrigation systems
  • Installing landscape lighting
  • Picking up, delivering, and installing plant material, from flats to 36-inch box trees
  • Using landscape tools and equipment safely, including blowers, string trimmers, hedge trimmers, chain saws, and pole saws
  • Driving company trucks and vans to jobsites and suppliers
  • Evaluating jobsite conditions and helping carry out project plans
  • Keeping tools, vehicles, and equipment clean and job-ready
  • What We’re Looking For
  • Comfortable working outdoors in different weather conditions
  • Able to lift and carry up to 50 pounds
  • Able to drive for extended periods as needed
  • Strong work ethic and able to work independently
  • Willing to learn, follow systems, and keep improving
  • Able to read in English and fully engage with training materials
  • Comfortable with background checks and drug testing

Pay, Benefits, and Growth

  • Starting pay from $25.00 per hour, based on experience
  • Fast opportunities for pay increases as performance improves
  • Bonus opportunities
  • 401(k)
  • Gym membership
  • Company-paid uniforms
  • Quality tools provided
  • Paid time off and sick days
  • Paid holidays
  • Overtime opportunities

Schedule
Typical work hours are 6:00 AM to 3:00 PM, though some days may start as early as 5:00 AM or extend later depending on weather and project needs.
