What You'll Bring

  • Demonstrated professional, hands-on maintenance skills.
  • A willingness to get your hands dirty.
  • Strong troubleshooting instincts.
  • Organization and follow-through.
  • A safety-first approach.
  • Clear communication.

Who We're Looking For

  • Collaborative Team Player: You're someone people can count on to pitch in and get things done. You work well with teammates, employees, vendors, and contractors and understand that maintaining great spaces takes coordination and teamwork.
  • Creative Problem Solver: You like figuring out how to fix things. You assess what's happening, work through practical solutions, and don't need every task to come with step-by-step instructions — while knowing when a problem requires additional expertise.
  • Adaptable & Agile: You're comfortable in a startup where the plan for your day may change. You can shift from a repair to an urgent setup to a furniture move, prioritize what needs attention first, and still follow through on the work already in progress.
  • Innovative Mindset: You notice opportunities to make our spaces and the way we maintain them better. You're curious about better tools, approaches, organization, and processes and willing to suggest improvements based on what you see doing the work every day.

What We Offer

  • Competitive compensation, including a robust equity incentive plan.
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance — we cover 100% of your premiums.
  • 401(k) with company matching, so you can plan for the future.
  • Generous flexible time off, paid parental leave, and company-wide holiday breaks.
  • Daily free catered lunches.
  • Learning and professional development opportunities.
