About The Position

At Placemakr, home meets hospitality. Weâve combined the best of apartment living, vacation rentals, and hotel stays into one experience. We partner with developers, property operators, and investors to curate a collection of apartment-like spaces in hand-picked neighborhoods. Our tech-enabled buildings create one-of-a-kind guest experiences and add tremendous value to the underlying real estate. Whether guests are with us for a night, a year, or somewhere in between, these are more than just spaces to spend the night â theyâre a place to call home. Our property team members help our buildings thrive by focusing on execution and ensuring a great experience for both residents and guests. Our non-property team members support property execution and the evolution of other areas within our platform. They can enjoy remote-first work with the freedom to choose their location â as long as they have access to a workspace and reliable Wi-Fi. We believe collaboration is key, so our remote-first teams and property leaders have biannual in-person get-togethers at various locations across the US. From corporate non-property team members to our property teams and leaders, weâre looking for collaborative, driven individuals to join us as we continue to expand our presence. At Placemakr, we hold building safety and maintenance in the highest regard, particularly as it contributes to a top-tier experience for our guests and residents. As a Maintenance Technician, you will be responsible for upholding our building standards by supporting all aspects of the overall maintenance and upkeep of your property by addressing building- and grounds-related concerns promptly. We are seeking skilled individuals who are on a mission to positively impact the guest and resident experience by making certain that our building is properly functioning, safe, and clean. As an integral member of our on-site Property Team, you will embody our Property Team Mission with each work order, preventative maintenance project and interaction, and consistently demonstrate that effective resolution of maintenance issues is the core of our operation. This is a full-time position requiring ability to work during the week, weekend, evenings and holidays. The exact days of the week will be rotational.
