Maintenance Technician

Maintenance Technician – RISE Sereno
$23–$24/hour

The work order comes in. A resident's air conditioning isn't working. Someone is moving in tomorrow, and the apartment has to be ready. A small plumbing issue needs attention before it becomes a major repair. Every day brings something different. The people who succeed in this role don't just fix things. They solve problems, take pride in their work, and understand that every completed repair helps create a better experience for the people who call RISE Sereno home.

We're hiring a Maintenance Technician at RISE Sereno — someone who enjoys hands-on work, takes ownership of their responsibilities, and wants to be part of a team that cares about doing things the right way.

This isn't just a maintenance position. It's about protecting the community, supporting your team, and providing outstanding service to residents. This role sits at the intersection of:

• Customer Service
• Skilled Maintenance
• Problem Solving
• Teamwork
• Community Pride

Every work order is an opportunity to build trust with a resident. Every completed make-ready helps welcome someone to their new home. Every repair contributes to the overall success of the community.

This role is for someone who:

• Enjoys troubleshooting and solving problems
• Takes pride in quality workmanship
• Understands the importance of customer service
• Can work independently while contributing to a team
• Is organized and follows through on commitments
• Takes ownership of their work without waiting to be asked
• Wants to continue growing their maintenance career

This role is probably not a fit if:

• You cut corners to finish faster
• You avoid communicating with residents
• You struggle managing multiple priorities throughout the day
• You prefer being told exactly what to do rather than taking initiative
• You don't take pride in your workmanship

We're looking for someone who understands that great maintenance is about more than fixing what's broken—it's about creating confidence and trust.

• Completing service requests in a timely, professional manner
• Troubleshooting and repairing HVAC, plumbing, electrical, appliance, drywall, and general maintenance issues
• Preparing apartments for new residents through quality make-ready work
• Performing preventative maintenance and routine inspections
• Assisting with maintaining the appearance and condition of the community
• Communicating professionally with residents regarding maintenance requests
• Following company safety standards and maintenance procedures
• Participating in the on-call rotation as scheduled
• Working closely with the Service Manager and maintenance team to deliver exceptional service

• Previous apartment maintenance or related maintenance experience preferred
• Experience with HVAC, plumbing, electrical, appliance repair, or general maintenance
• EPA Certification preferred (or willingness to obtain)
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills
• Excellent customer service and communication abilities
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
• Positive attitude and strong work ethic

The maintenance team plays one of the most important roles in the success of our community. Your work directly impacts:

• Resident satisfaction
• Apartment readiness
• Community appearance
• Team success

At RISE, we believe great maintenance professionals aren't just technicians — they're trusted members of the community who help create an exceptional living experience every day.
