Mountaineer Cleaning & Maintenance
Vacation Rental Maintenance & Pool Technician
Do you enjoy working outdoors, solving problems, fixing things, and keeping properties looking guest-ready? Are you the kind of person who notices when something's leaking, broken, blinking, or "making a weird noise" before everyone else does? Perfect. We should probably talk.
Mountaineer Cleaning & Maintenance is looking for a reliable, hardworking Maintenance & Pool Technician to help maintain vacation rental cabins and pools throughout the Great Smoky Mountains area.
This position combines hands-on property maintenance with pool and hot tub care. One minute you might be troubleshooting a Wi-Fi issue, and the next you're making sure a pool is crystal clear and guest-ready. No two days are exactly the same - which is great news if sitting behind a desk sounds like your personal nightmare.
Who We Are
At Mountaineer Cleaning & Maintenance, we don't just fill positions - we build teams. We believe in supporting our employees, providing steady work, and creating an environment where people actually enjoy coming to work most days. We work hard, help each other out, and occasionally battle hot tubs that seem personally offended by chemistry.
What You'll Be Doing
Perform routine pool and hot tub cleaning, maintenance, and chemical balancing
Skim, vacuum, brush, and maintain pools to ensure they remain clean and guest-ready
Inspect and troubleshoot pool equipment and report or complete minor repairs
Handle general maintenance tasks across vacation rental cabins
Troubleshoot issues involving appliances, HVAC systems, plumbing, Wi-Fi, and basic electrical components
Perform property inspections and identify maintenance concerns before guests do
Coordinate with third-party vendors when needed
Use company-provided technology to manage work orders and updates
Maintain a professional and friendly attitude while working around guests, owners, and team members
What We're Looking For
Maintenance experience preferred, but we're willing to train the right person with strong mechanical ability and work ethic
Pool maintenance experience is MANDATORY
Comfortable working independently and managing daily routes/tasks
Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills
Ability to lift 40+ pounds and work in outdoor conditions year-round
Valid driver's license with a clean driving record insurable under company policy
Reliable transportation to and from work
Basic technology skills - if an iPad causes immediate emotional distress, this may not be the role for you
Weekend and holiday availability as needed
Bonus Points If You Have
CPO (Certified Pool Operator) certification
Experience in vacation rental or hospitality maintenance
Knowledge of hot tubs, pumps, plumbing, or HVAC systems
Why You'll Want This Job
Benefits available after 30 days, including PTO, Sick Time, 401(k), and Health Insurance assistance
Company vehicle, tools, and phone provided
Steady full-time work year-round
Training provided for the right candidate
Work in the beautiful Smoky Mountains instead of under fluorescent office lights
A team that values hard work, reliability, and people who can solve problems without creating three new ones
