Job description

At PODS, we pioneered portable storage and moving solutions—and our iconic containers are at the heart of everything we do. Our containers are more than equipment—they represent our brand, our safety standards, and our commitment to customers. As a Maintenance Technician, you’ll play a critical role in keeping our containers and facilities in top condition. This is an opportunity for a skilled, hands-on professional who takes pride in quality work, values safety, and enjoys working independently in a fast-paced environment.

If you’re experienced with power tools, comfortable working with your hands, and committed to doing the job right the first time, we want to meet you!

What You'll Do

As a Maintenance Technician, you are the reason our customers feel confident trusting us with their belongings. Your day-to-day includes:

• Performing a wide range of repair tasks using hand and power tools with minimal to no supervision
• Completing general carpentry repairs, painting, caulking, cutting, and cosmetic container repairs
• Operating forklifts safely (we’ll certify you if you’re not already certified)
• Operating standard shop equipment and performing all required cutting operations safely
• Pressure washing and cleaning containers
• Safely rigging and lifting materials as part of repair work
• Moving materials using hand carts and assisting with staging and organization
• Following repair instructions and technical guidance while exercising sound judgment in execution
• Helping maintain a clean, safe, and organized warehouse environment, inside and out

What You Bring to the Workbench

• High school diploma or equivalent
• 0-1 years of experience in construction, building trades, assembly work, or a related hands-on field
• Proven experience using hand and power tools independently
• Ability to read and understand English in compliance with OSHA safety requirements

• Ability to become forklift certified and safely operate material-handling equipment
• Valid driver’s license with a clean driving record
• A safety-first mindset and attention to detail
• Strong time management skills and ability to prioritize tasks
• Solid work ethic—regular attendance and punctuality are essential

Working Conditions & Physicality

This is a high-energy, physical role. You’ll be:

• Working in a warehouse/repair center that feels the seasons (non-climate controlled)
• Standing, walking, kneeling, and crouching—sometimes working above head level or on a ladder
• Lifting and carrying items weighing up to 60 lbs.
• Working a flexible schedule that may include Saturdays and overtime when the business is booming

Why You’ll Love Working at PODS

• Competitive compensation with opportunities for overtime.
• Comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, 401(k) with match, paid time off, holidays, and more.
• Hands-on work with variety—no two days are exactly the same.
