Maintenance Technician | Lease

We are seeking a skilled and adaptable Maintenance Technician to support our growing portfolio of lease-up multifamily communities. This role is designed for a hands-on problem solver who thrives in a fast-paced environment, takes pride in delivering a high-quality product, and enjoys being part of bringing a new community to life.

• Perform and document preventive maintenance as building systems, amenities, and equipment transition from construction into ongoing property operations
• Regularly inspect buildings, apartments, amenities, grounds, and common areas and promptly communicate maintenance, safety, construction, or warranty concerns
• Support the cleanliness and upkeep of community amenities, pools, common areas, grounds, landscaping, and parking areas as needed
• Maintain tools, equipment, supplies, and maintenance areas in a clean, safe, and organized condition
• Assist with seasonal property needs, including snow and ice removal

• Newly delivered apartments are thoroughly inspected and ready for residents on scheduled move-in dates
• Resident service requests are completed timely and correctly across assigned communities
• Construction and warranty concerns are identified early, documented appropriately, and communicated for resolution
• Maintenance priorities are effectively balanced as occupancy and service needs grow across multiple lease-up communities
• Preventive maintenance practices are established as new building systems and equipment transition into ongoing operations
• New residents receive responsive, professional maintenance service from the beginning of their experience with PRAXM
• Property Managers have a dependable maintenance partner who communicates priorities, concerns, and outstanding needs
• Communities transition successfully from active lease-up toward stabilized maintenance operations
