NOW HIRING

Position Title: Skilled Construction & Property Maintenance Technician

AKB Inc. is a family‑owned company headquartered in McMinnville, Tennessee, with nearly five decades of continuous operation in Warren County. Three divisions work side‑by‑side under one roof:

• Tri‑State Development & Construction Company — general contracting, pre‑engineered metal buildings, commercial and industrial construction, tenant improvements, and site work.
• AKB Self Storage — owner/operator of traditional and temperature‑controlled self‑storage facilities.
• AKB Inc. Property Portfolio — long‑term ownership of retail, industrial, office, and residential income‑producing assets.

We own and operate many properties that we build, which means the work you do here actually stays on our properties — and you’ll see the result of your craftsmanship for years. We service approximately a 70‑mile radius of McMinnville, and our crews handle construction, maintenance, and property oversight directly — not subcontracted out.

We are seeking a dependable, mechanically capable Skilled Construction & Property Maintenance Technician to support both new construction projects (Tri‑State) and the day‑to‑day upkeep of our self‑storage facilities and rental property portfolio. This is a hands‑on, in‑the‑field role for someone who can troubleshoot, build, repair, and maintain a wide range of systems across commercial, industrial, residential, and self‑storage properties.

This is a long‑term career opportunity inside a stable, locally owned business. We are looking for someone who values consistency, responsibility, takes ownership of their work, and wants to become an important part of a small but efficient team.

Our company values employees who want to build a stable, long‑term career. This role is designed to grow as the employee gains experience and responsibility within the business. We believe in rewarding employees who demonstrate reliability, strong performance, and commitment — and who treat the company’s assets like their own.

Starting Pay: Competitive — set based on demonstrated skills, certifications, and experience (specific rate discussed at interview).

Planned wage progression based on performance and mastery of responsibilities:

• 6‑Month Review — performance evaluation with opportunity for wage increase.
• 12‑Month Review — eligible for additional raise and expanded responsibilities.
• Long‑Term Role Development — continued wage growth as skills and responsibilities expand (HVAC certification, advanced equipment operation, lead‑tech responsibility, etc.).

Employees who demonstrate strong skills, reliability, and good judgment in the field are positioned for continued growth within the company.
