    SoftWash Hawaii is looking for dependable, capable individuals who want to learn a skilled trade, take responsibility, and grow with a developing company.

    This is not simply a helper position.

    Our goal is to develop technicians we can trust to get the job done without the owner standing beside them.

    You don't need soft washing experience. We will train you.

    You do need accountability, responsibility, mechanical aptitude, common sense, and the willingness to learn.

    WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

    Above everything else, we're looking for people who are:

    ACCOUNTABLE — You take ownership of your responsibilities and mistakes. You don't automatically look for someone else to blame or solve the problem.

    RESPONSIBLE — You show up on time, prepared, and ready to work. Other employees, customers, and the company are depending on you.

    TRAINABLE — You listen, retain what you're taught, apply it, and become increasingly capable. Training should result in greater independence—not someone continually doing your job for you.

    You may be a strong fit if you:

    Have good mechanical ability and enjoy understanding how things work

    Use common sense and can troubleshoot problems

    Think before immediately asking someone else for the answer

    Show initiative and recognize what needs to happen next

    Accept coaching without becoming defensive

    Remember and apply previous training

    Take pride in doing physical work correctly

    Can follow systems and safety procedures

    Work productively without constant supervision

    Want greater responsibility and earning potential as your capabilities grow

    You don't need to know everything. We care about whether you can learn, think, improve, and become dependable.

    THIS MAY NOT BE FOR YOU IF...

    This probably isn't the right position if you frequently have difficulty getting to work on time, need repeated reminders, expect someone else to solve every problem, become defensive when corrected, regularly call out, or are primarily interested in what you can earn without considering the responsibility that comes with it.

    We would rather both sides understand that before you're hired.

    WHAT YOU'LL DO

    You'll learn SoftWash Hawaii's professional exterior cleaning and property-preservation systems while assisting with:

    Equipment, chemical, tool, and vehicle preparation

    Roof, exterior, solar panel, siding, concrete, window, and related services

    Basic equipment operation and troubleshooting

    Property and landscaping protection

    Ladders, roofs, and elevated work using required safety systems

    Job-site setup, execution, cleanup, and equipment reset

    Identifying and communicating problems before they become larger problems

    Maintaining professional standards around customers and their property

    This is physical outdoor work in Hawaiʻi's heat, humidity, wind, and changing weather.

    CAREER GROWTH

    Assistant Technician is an entry point—not necessarily a destination.

    Employees who demonstrate reliability, technical ability, ownership, safety, leadership, and consistent performance may advance into:

    Lead Technician → Advanced Field Roles → Crew Leadership → Training → Operations → Other Leadership Opportunities

    We promote based on capability, consistency, attitude, responsibility, and results—not simply time with the company.

    COMPENSATION

    Assistant Technician: $16–$18/hour + 1%–2% production commission

    Paid training is provided.

    Lead Technician opportunities include increased hourly compensation, production commission, and responsibility.

    FIRST 21 DAYS

    Every new technician begins with a 21-Day Field Evaluation Period.

    We will evaluate:

    Attendance • Punctuality • Accountability • Coachability • Learning • Mechanical Aptitude • Problem-Solving • Initiative • Safety • Work Quality • Productivity • Professionalism • Dependability

    The question we're ultimately trying to answer is simple:

    Can we trust you to learn the job, take ownership, and eventually execute work without constant supervision?

    BASIC REQUIREMENTS

    Applicants must live on Oʻahu, reliably commute to Ewa Beach, have dependable transportation and a valid driver's license, provide a driver abstract, complete required background/drug screening and DISC assessment, be physically capable of demanding outdoor work, lift up to 75 lbs., and be comfortable working from ladders, roofs, and elevated surfaces.

    BEFORE YOU APPLY

    We are not expecting perfection.

    We are expecting effort, reliability, accountability, improvement, and ownership.

    If you want a position where doing the minimum is enough, SoftWash Hawaii probably isn't the right fit.

    If you want to learn a trade, become highly capable, earn greater responsibility, increase your earning potential, and grow with a company that is building for the future, we'd like to hear from you.
