Job description

Where the Desert Meets Its Oasis

Seven sprawling acres of crystalline water. A nine-story waterfall. A lazy river that winds beneath the shadow of South Mountain. This is not a swimming pool — this is The Oasis, Arizona Grand Resort & Spa’s legendary aquatic playground, and it needs a guardian worthy of its grandeur.

If you’ve mastered the chemistry, the mechanics, and the quiet artistry of keeping water flawless, Phoenix is calling — and so are we.

The Role

As our Senior Pool Technician, you won’t just maintain pools. You’ll be the unseen hand behind a guest experience that draws travelers from around the globe to float, splash, and unwind beneath 300+ days of Arizona sunshine a year. You’ll lead with precision, mentor with patience, and troubleshoot with the calm confidence of someone who’s seen it all — and fixed it all.

• Oversee daily water quality testing, chemical balancing, and equipment inspections across multiple pools and water features
• Diagnose and repair pumps, filters, heaters, and automated chemical systems
• Guide and train junior technicians, setting the standard for safety and craftsmanship
• Ensure full compliance with county, state, and health department regulations
• Collaborate with facilities and resort leadership to keep The Oasis operating at its sparkling best, every single day

What You Bring

• Proven experience in commercial pool operations and maintenance
• Certified Pool Operator (CPO) credential, or the readiness to earn one fast
• A sharp eye for detail and an even sharper sense of pride in your work
• Comfort working outdoors in the Sonoran Desert climate — this is Phoenix, after all
• Leadership instincts and a collaborative spirit
