About The Position

The City of Englewood is hiring Facilities Maintenance Technicians at Levels II and III to maintain and repair City facilities and equipment under general supervision. The work includes semi-skilled and skilled maintenance across carpentry, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, refrigeration, doors, painting, and mechanical systems. The Technician reports to the Assistant Facility Manager and has no direct reports. Technicians inspect facilities, perform preventive maintenance, troubleshoot systems, and complete repairs using blueprints, technical manuals, diagrams, testing equipment, and specialized tools. They use a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) to manage assignments, document work, maintain records, and track preventive maintenance. The role includes communicating work-order status, responding to after-hours emergencies while on call, setting up meeting rooms, repairing exterior and parking-lot lighting with a bucket truck, and performing custodial duties as needed. The Technician II role requires 2–4 years of relevant experience and basic CMMS and tool skills. The Technician III role requires 4–6 years of relevant experience and advanced CMMS and tool skills. Both levels require a high school diploma or GED, a valid Colorado driver’s license with a clear or acceptable MVR, and certification in at least one applicable trade. A trade or technical school credential, apprenticeship, and journeyman’s license are preferred as applicable. An equivalent combination of education, training, and relevant experience may be substituted. Work takes place inside City facilities and occasionally on surrounding grounds. Conditions may include working near moving mechanical parts and at heights, and exposure to fumes, airborne particles, chemicals, wet, hot, and cold conditions, and other listed hazards. New hires must complete in-person interviews, reference checks, and background-check processes that may include local police, DMV, drug-screen, and CBI/FBI fingerprint checks.
