Maintenance Technician

Waypoint Management Services runs a high-end luxury community in Jacksonville and needs a Maintenance Technician who can keep things running cleanly, respond fast, and treat residents well. The property is growing, and they want someone who takes ownership of their work rather than waiting to be told what to do next.

What You'll Actually Do

Your day centers on service work and preventive care. You'll diagnose and repair problems across plumbing, HVAC, carpentry, and general building systems. Make-readies are a real part of the job: you'll inspect units before move-in, coordinate with contractors on punch list items, and make sure turns are completed to a high standard. Priority work orders get a 24-hour resolution target, which means you need to be organized and efficient, not just technically capable.

Beyond the unit-level work, you'll run routine preventive maintenance on HVAC equipment and community systems, service the pool (including chemical readings), maintain the trash compactor, and confirm that gate and security equipment stays operational. Grounds upkeep falls into your scope too. At a luxury community, the physical condition of the property directly shapes resident perception, so the bar for presentation is higher than average.

You'll be on an on-call rotation, so after-hours emergency response comes with the role. That's a consistent reality here, not a rare exception.

What You Bring

• EPA Section 608 Type I and II certification (required)
• Hands-on experience with building repairs across multiple trade areas
• Working knowledge of OSHA safety standards
• Ability to handle make-ready inspections and coordinate with outside contractors
• Strong service orientation and a professional, resident-facing presence
• CPO certification is a plus
• High school diploma or equivalent, plus relevant field experience

Why This Role Is Worth a Hard Look

Waypoint offers medical, dental, and vision coverage starting day one, a 401k with matching, an employee referral program, and an onsite housing discount. For someone who wants to live close to where they work, that discount can meaningfully offset cost of living in Jacksonville.

Technicians at luxury communities tend to develop sharper skills faster than peers at Class C or value-add properties, simply because the expectation for quality is higher and the equipment is newer. If you're building toward a lead or maintenance supervisor role, a stint at a high-end community like this carries real weight on a resume. Owners and operators notice the difference between someone who can fix things and someone who can maintain a premium product at a consistent standard.
