JOB SUMMARY:

Our mission here at iFixit is to teach everyone how to fix everything!

We're seeking to fill a position for a part-time CUSTODIAN position to help keep our San Luis Obispo headquarters in tip-top shape. Hours are generally flexible, but when working on projects with others you'll be expected to communicate with coworkers to schedule your time appropriately. 

WHAT YOU'D BE DOING:

• Perform a wide variety of general maintenance and cleaning needs --- this might include wiping down surfaces, changing a light-bulb, calling a plumber, picking up and throwing away trash, laundry, cleaning exterior areas of the building, assembling shelves or furniture, cleaning roof decks, organizing the warehouse, or dusting and cleaning spider webs.
• Complete daily, weekly, and monthly checklists for cleaning and facility maintenance.
• Find ways to improve and maintain overall office cleanliness and organization.
• Manage cleaning and “flipping” our company studio housing that is used for employees and business guests from out of state

YOU WILL BE GREAT AT THIS POSITION IF YOU:

• Are a self-starter; can notice and address issues without being told 
• Are creative and resourceful when it comes to finding solutions and fixing problems
• Have good judgment as to when to call in external services or whether something can be fixed in house
• Have a helpful attitude to be of assistance with all kinds of tasks in the office

WE'D LIKE YOU TO HAVE:

• Basic familiarity with tools and repairs and maintenance
• Good organizational skills and a general desire to see everything neat and tidy
• Follow through and follow up on projects to see them through to completion
• Willingness to ask for assistance or additional resources when needed

IFIXIT IS AN AWESOME PLACE TO WORK. HERE ARE SOME OF THE PERKS YOU'D BE ELIGIBLE FOR:

• A repairable laptop, and any software you need.
• 401k plan with 4% employer match after 1 year of employment.
• Profit sharing after one year of employment.
• Generous stipends towards repair & wellness.
• $400 towards a bike or alternative method of transportation.
• A sweet pair of headphones to get your head in the game.
• Employee discounts on parts and tools.
• Charitable contribution matching! We'll 100% match your tax deductible donations.
