Tired of the Corporate Grind and Wasted Drive Time?
You’re a pro. You know the job, you know the tools, and you know how to handle customers. So why are you still being treated like a rookie? Most big companies drown their best techs in red tape, soul-crushing traffic, and pay caps that don't reward your speed. At City Appliance, we recognize that an elite technician is a partner, not just an employee.
The Opportunity: The Freedom to Excel
We are a high-growth, locally-owned leader in the San Marcos/Hays County corridor. We don’t micromanage pros. We provide the support you need—a stocked van, the latest tech, and a constant flow of high-quality leads—then we get out of your way and let you do what you do best.
-
Smart Zone Routing: We value your time. We focus on staying in a zone to maximize your repair time and minimize your windshield time.
-
No Red Tape: Direct access to the owner. If you need a tool or a process change to be more efficient, we make it happen with no committees required.
-
Growth Beyond the Van: As we expand into Austin, we are looking for this person to eventually lead a team, mentor apprentices, and help shape the future of our service department.
The "Grand Slam" Offer (The Pay & Lifestyle)
We’ve built a compensation model that ensures our best techs are the highest-paid in the area:
-
The $100k Potential: High hourly base + aggressive commission/spiffs on parts and labor. Your efficiency is your raise.
-
No Mandatory Weekends: We value work-life balance. Keep your Saturdays and Sundays for yourself.
-
New Equipment: Drive a late-model, organized company van stocked with the specialty tools and inventory you need to maintain a high first-call complete rate.
-
Professional Support: A dedicated office team that handles the "BS" so you can focus on the technical puzzles.

You aren't just looking for a job; you’re looking for a home where your expertise is respected.

Master Troubleshooter: You have 3-6 years of experience with all major brands (Samsung, LG, Whirlpool, GE, etc.) and aren't afraid of complex sealed system work.

As an appliance repair technician, you’ll work with anything from dishwashers to microwaves to dryers. In other words, you’ll need to be fairly knowledgeable about large appliances, portable appliances, mechanical work, as well as electrical work.
You’ll deal with more than just appliances, though, as a repair technician, you’ll have to deal with people, too.
Appliance repair technicians must also have skills in high mechanical aptitude, have impeccable written and verbal communication skills, work adeptly with repair tools, be okay with lifting heavy machinery, and of course, be incredibly skilled in troubleshooting problems.
