Oahu-Based | Full-Time | Paid Training | Growth Opportunity
SoftWash Hawaii is hiring a small number of Assistant Technicians to join our field team on Oahu.
This is not a “helper” position. This is a hands-on field role for someone who wants to learn, grow, take ownership, and work toward becoming a Lead Technician as opportunities become available.
We are not looking for everyone. We are looking for the right individuals — people who are reliable, physically capable, coachable, respectful, and willing to be held to a higher standard.
Who This Role Is For
This role is for someone who:
- Shows up on time
- Takes pride in physical work
- Accepts correction without ego
- Can follow systems and safety procedures
- Works well with a team
- Respects customers, coworkers, and company equipment
- Wants long-term growth, not just a paycheck
- Can work without constant reminders or micromanagement
Experience in soft washing is not required.
Character, reliability, coachability, and accountability are required.
What You’ll Be Doing
As an Assistant Technician, you will work alongside our Lead Technician and field team to help execute professional exterior cleaning and preservation services.
You will assist with:
- Preparing service vehicles, equipment, soaps, tools, and safety gear
- Working outdoors in Hawaii’s heat, humidity, wind, and weather
- Roof cleaning, exterior surface cleaning, solar panel cleaning, siding, walkways, and other services
- Working from ladders, roofs, and elevated surfaces using proper safety systems
- Lifting, moving, and handling equipment up to 75 lbs.
- Protecting landscaping, windows, vehicles, and surrounding property
- Following structured systems and job-site procedures
- Maintaining a clean, organized, professional service vehicle
- Completing end-of-day cleanup and equipment reset procedures
- Representing SoftWash Hawaii professionally on job sites
Growth Path
This position is designed as an entry point into a larger career path.
Assistant Technicians who prove they are reliable, coachable, safe, consistent, and capable of taking ownership may have the opportunity to advance into a Lead Technician position.
High-performing team members may also grow into advanced field roles involving leadership, customer communication, sales support, and additional earning potential.
We promote based on performance, consistency, attitude, and results — not simply time served.
