Job description

Our mission

We don’t only maintain lifts and escalators — we transform how they’re operated.
At WeMaintain, we build tech that empowers the people who keep cities running, making building maintenance smarter, faster, and more human.

Why join us?

You don’t have to choose between autonomy and stability.

Big companies offer structure but little ownership or recognition.
Small companies offer freedom but not always clear direction or long‑term support.

At WeMaintain, you get both:

• Autonomy backed by real support and modern tools

• A culture of trust, transparency, and respect

• Career growth and opportunities for internal mobility

• A team that values grit, perseverance, and the drive to make a real impact

Our values come to life every day:

Care — Respect and support for clients and colleagues
Grit — Persistence and high standards to get things done right
Uniqueness — Encouragement to share ideas and challenge the status quo

Who we’re looking for

We are searching for a Technical Manager to join our team in Hong Kong.

You’ll play a key role in leading, training and improving our teams to ensure we are able to fix lifts and escalators on time. You’ll also be part of a new way of working — where your input from the field helps shape our tech and the future of the industry.

You’re a great fit if you:

• Take ownership and make decisions confidently
• Thrive in a flat, open environment where your voice matters
• Care deeply about quality, safety, and doing things right
• Are proactive, solution‑oriented, and always learning

What Will Your Future Role Be?

As a Technical Manager at WeMaintain, you will:

• Organise the technical work of our field teams ensuring we are efficient and that we keep lifts and escalators in service
• Conduct technical training on site with our field teams
• Manage the performance of technical engineers, providing guidance and support
• Conduct site audits of our teams and ensure best‑in‑class quality
• Provide expert advice on technical resolutions to technical problems

You Are the Right Person for Us If:

• You are a holder of High Diploma or equivalent or above. Degree in Mechanical/Electrical Engineering is preferrable but not essential.
• You have 3 years or above of relevant experience
• You have good physical stamina
• You are a holder of relevant state license/certification (RLW/REW)
• You have good problem‑solving skills and attention to detail.
• You have experience in interpreting and analysing blueprints/technical diagrams
• You’re a great communicator for leading teams and interacting with team members
• You’re comfortable with new technologies and want to be part of industry change
• You’re detail‑oriented, reliable, and take pride in your work
