Oahu-Based | Full-Time | Paid Training | Growth Opportunity

Soft Wash Hawaii is hiring a small number of Assistant Technicians to join our field team on Oahu.

This is not a “helper” position. This is a hands-on field role for someone who wants to learn, grow, take ownership, and work toward becoming a Lead Technician as opportunities become available.

We are not looking for everyone. We are looking for the right individuals — people who are reliable, physically capable, coachable, respectful, and willing to be held to a higher standard.

Who This Role Is For

This role is for someone who:

Shows up on time

Takes pride in physical work

Accepts correction without ego

Can follow systems and safety procedures

Works well with a team

Respects customers, coworkers, and company equipment

Wants long-term growth, not just a paycheck

Can work without constant reminders or micromanagement

Experience in soft washing is not required. Character, reliability, coachability, and accountability are required.

What You’ll Be Doing

As an Assistant Technician, you will work alongside our Lead Technician and field team to help execute professional exterior cleaning and preservation services.

You will assist with:

Preparing service vehicles, equipment, soaps, tools, and safety gear

Working outdoors in Hawaiʻi’s heat, humidity, wind, and weather

Roof cleaning, exterior surface cleaning, solar panel cleaning, siding, walkways, and other services

Working from ladders, roofs, and elevated surfaces using proper safety systems

Lifting, moving, and handling equipment up to 75 lbs.

Protecting landscaping, windows, vehicles, and surrounding property

Following structured systems and job-site procedures

Maintaining a clean, organized, professional service vehicle

Completing end-of-day cleanup and equipment reset procedures

Representing Soft Wash Hawaii professionally on job sites

Growth Path

This position is designed as an entry point into a larger career path.

Assistant Technicians who prove they are reliable, coachable, safe, consistent, and capable of taking ownership may have the opportunity to advance into a Lead Technician position.

High-performing team members may also grow into advanced field roles involving leadership, customer communication, sales support, and additional earning potential.

We promote based on performance, consistency, attitude, and results — not simply time served.
