Salary Range: $23.00 To $27.00 Hourly

This position is a full-time hourly wage position located in Honolulu, Hawaii. UHT provides technical systems and staffing solutions for a variety of clients across Hawai‘i, including public and private sector organizations. Our Field Technicians are part of a skilled team that supports mission‑critical infrastructure and customer‑facing technologies.

As a Field Technician, you will be part of a collaborative technical and mechanical support team responsible for maintaining and servicing a wide range of equipment and systems deployed across UHT client sites. You will receive training and direction from the Asset Management department’s Field Operations and Maintenance team members to ensure service excellence.

Closely following established standard operating procedures (SOPs) is a primary duty. Classroom and extensive on‑the‑job training will be provided and required to ensure you’re able to succeed in meeting the standards. Completion of Department of Transportation Services Rail Training is required for site access and must be successfully completed during the first month of the probationary period.

The operation we service runs 7 days per week, 4 am to 10:30 pm, and may include certain holidays. We operate 8‑hour shifts and an on‑call triage and dispatch evenings and weekends to cover KPIs during operational hours. On‑call hours may be paid as overtime once the technician is over 40 hours per week. Both the shift and on‑call schedule can be flexible as we make every accommodation to allow the technicians to select both the daily shift and the on‑call shift if our contractual service coverage is met.

When there are schedule conflicts, shifts may be assigned as needed. Technicians may be required to fill in vacant shifts or work overtime on short notice during any of our operating days and hours.

This role is ideal for individuals who thrive in a team‑oriented environment, are detail‑oriented, and are committed to delivering high‑quality technical support. While initiative is encouraged, success in this role depends on collaboration and adherence to established procedures.
