Are you a skilled handyman or maintenance technician looking for steady, full time work with a great team, strong pay, and excellent benefits? Honey Homes is hiring in California (San Francisco, Lafayette, San Rafael, San Mateo, Palo Alto, San Jose, Dublin, Berkeley), Texas (Austin, Dallas), Illinois (Winnetka, Chicago, Oak Brook). This is a full time, W2 hourly job with paid benefits, not a gig, contract, or part time role. We keep you local: you'll work either on a dedicated territory of 40 to 50 homes near where you live or on our residential remodeling crew. No client hunting, no unpredictable schedules, no weekends. Just steady, well paid home repair and maintenance work close to home.

We serve over 4,500 homeowners across California, Texas, and Illinois, and we're growing fast, with real support from a Field Manager and a Member Success team behind you every day. There's real room to grow here: take courses from our General Contractor, with opportunities to move up to Senior Handyman and then to Field Trainer. We're offering a $1,500 sign on bonus for qualified candidates, paid out in full after you complete training and remain onboard for 30 days.

• Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm
• No evenings, no weekends, no on call, no required overtime
• Work close to home in a small territory near where you live, not the whole metro

Benefits

• 100% company paid health, vision, and dental insurance
• 401(k)
• 12 paid holidays plus 13 days of paid time off
• Life insurance, flexible spending accounts, and a company phone
• Referral bonus: $50 when someone you refer completes a phone screen, and $500 when they're hired and stay past 30 days

  • Carpentry: door installation, trim and molding, framing, dry rot repair, deck and fence repair

  • Electrical: light fixture installation, outlets, switches, ceiling fans, thermostats, small wiring tasks

• Keep home systems and appliances on a preventive maintenance schedule for your route homes.
• Provide outstanding customer service and build strong relationships. You're in members' homes, and they need to trust you.
• Use our app to track jobs, tasks, and schedules.

Job Requirements

• 5+ years of hands on experience as a handyman, maintenance technician, carpenter, remodeler, or in another multi trade residential role.
