    Car Wash Maintenance Technician

    Kansas City Metro Area (Kearney, Cameron, Platte City, MO)
    Full-Time (45 hrs/week) | Field-Based | Travel Required
    Looking for someone who is has experience in the following areas.
    Equipment and Maintenance
    • Preventative maintenance on In-Bay Automatic (IBA) wash systems, self-service bays,
    vacuums, payment systems, and chemical delivery equipment
    • Diagnosing and repairing electrical, mechanical, plumbing, and control system issues
    • Working with multimeters, schematics, breaker panels, contactors, single-phase and
    three-phase power (220/440)
    • Running conduit, wiring, replacing wiring, making hydraulic hoses, running chemical and
    water lines, PVC and copper pipe
    • Installing equipment into concrete — anchors, signage, track systems
    • Garage doors, automatic doors, boilers and floor heating systems
    • Troubleshooting logically — finding the real problem, not throwing parts at it
    • Minor repairs and maintenance support at oil change lube center locations as needed
    Site Appearance and Grounds
    • Keeping bays, lots, vacuum islands, and equipment looking like somebody cares about
    them
    • Pressure washing bays, cleaning oil-water separators, shoveling mud, clearing drains
    • If it's dirty, you clean it. If chemicals need filling, you fill them. You own the whole site.

    Projects and Growth
    • Leading or supporting equipment installs, upgrades, and improvement projects
    • Working with vendors, placing service calls, managing project timelines
    • Communicating up and down the chain of command — your team knows what's going
    on because you told them
    Documentation
    • Every work order documented in our maintenance tracking system with photos, parts
    used, root cause, and next steps. Non-negotiable.
    Schedule and Work Reality
    This is a full-time position averaging 45 hours per week. Car washes don't break on a schedule,
    and they don't wait until Monday morning. You should expect:
    • Weekend work — equipment goes down on Saturday, you go fix it
    • Early mornings or late nights when the situation calls for it
    • Taking calls on weekends and after hours — if a site is down, you're the person who
    knows about it
    • Flexibility to shift your schedule — work a weekend, take a day off during the week
    This is not an 8-to-5, Monday-through-Friday desk job. If you need rigid hours, this role isn't the
    right fit. If you're the kind of person who sees a problem and handles it regardless of the clock,
    you'll do well here.
    What You Get
    • Vehicle allowance and gas card
    • Health insurance — group plan available
    • 401(k) with company match
    • Vacation and sick leave
    • Training and development — we invest in you getting better at the job
    • Growth path — junior technicians grow into senior roles based on performance, not
    seniority
    • Autonomy — you plan your day, you run your sites, you own how the work gets done
    • Travel covered — flights, hotels, and meals when working out of market

    We are looking for some with:
    • Mechanical aptitude — comfortable with hand tools, not afraid to get dirty
    • Reliable personal vehicle — this is a field role with daily travel between sites. Vehicle
    allowance and gas card provided.
    • Valid driver's license
    • Ability to work independently with minimal supervision
    • Willingness to travel — this includes flying to other states. We have sites across the
    country, and travel to other markets is part of the position.
    • Comfortable with a flexible schedule — weekends, early mornings, and after-hours calls
    are part of the job
    • Physical ability to climb ladders, work on roofs, lift 50+ lbs, and work in all weather
    conditions
    Preferred (not required — we'll train the right person)
    • Experience with In-Bay Automatic (IBA) car wash systems (Ryko, Mark VII, or similar)
    • Electrical troubleshooting (multimeter, schematics, breaker panels, variable frequency
    drives)
    • Plumbing (PVC, copper, water lines, chemical lines)
    • Experience with garage doors, automatic doors, or boiler/heating systems
    • Experience with payment systems (coin acceptors, bill changers, credit card readers)
    • Experience with maintenance tracking software
    If you've worked in HVAC, industrial maintenance, plumbing, electrical, automotive repair,
    facilities maintenance, or military equipment maintenance — your skills probably transfer.

    Competitive pay based on experience. $20-$25/Hr Full benefits package.
