Deck Tech information

What is a deck tech?

Deck Techs, short for Deck Technicians, are professionals who work on ships, oil rigs, or other marine vessels, assisting with the maintenance and operation of the deck. Their responsibilities typically include handling cargo, maintaining deck equipment, assisting with mooring and unmooring procedures, and ensuring safety protocols are followed. Deck Techs play a vital role in the daily operations of a vessel, often working under the supervision of deck officers or engineers. They need to be physically fit, comfortable working outdoors in various weather conditions, and knowledgeable about marine safety regulations.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a deck tech?

To thrive as a Deck Tech, you need strong knowledge of boat maintenance, repair techniques, and general seamanship, often supported by experience or relevant certifications such as STCW (Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping). Familiarity with tools like power washers, sanding equipment, varnishing systems, and marine safety gear is typically required. Attention to detail, teamwork, and effective communication are crucial soft skills for this position. These abilities ensure the safety, functionality, and aesthetic upkeep of vessels, directly contributing to efficient operations and crew safety.

What are the typical challenges a deck tech faces when working on a ship or offshore platform?

Deck Techs often encounter challenges related to changing weather conditions, heavy machinery operation, and strict safety protocols. Adapting quickly to rapidly shifting tasks, such as responding to emergencies or assisting with cargo operations, is essential. Working as part of a close-knit team, Deck Techs must communicate clearly and follow procedures to ensure smooth operations and prevent accidents. Overcoming physical demands and maintaining attention to detail are crucial for success in this role.

Job description

We Don't Just Build Outdoor Spaces, We Build Experiences

At DeckTech, we're passionate about creating exceptional outdoor living spaces, but what truly sets us apart is that DeckTech was built on the belief that construction should be structured, transparent, and professionally managed. That philosophy drives everything we do โ€” and as our Project Manager, you'll be the one bringing it to life on every jobsite.

Too often, homeowners feel uncertainty during building projects. Our company operates on defined systems that give clients clarity, confidence, and control from start to finish โ€” and you'll be the person making sure that promise is kept, every day, on every job.

As the premier deck builder in Alabama and West Georgia, we're looking for someone who wants more than a job managing schedules. We're looking for a leader who wants to grow alongside a company that's building something special.

Our team takes pride in more than just building decks. We build trust with homeowners, pride in craftsmanship, and a culture where hard work and growth are valued. We operate as a close-knit team of hardworking professionals who treat clients, and each other, like family. Collaboration, respect, and accountability are core to how we work together every day. As Deck Tech grows, we believe our people should grow with us.


This Isn't Just a Project Management Job

If you're an experienced construction professional, a detail-driven organizer, or a natural leader who thrives on keeping people and projects on track, this role offers something most PM positions can't: real ownership.

You'll have a direct impact on how our clients experience their build, how our subcontractors perform, and how our company's reputation grows throughout our market.

Instead of being buried in paperwork, you'll be hands-on in:

  • Project Scheduling & Coordination
  • Subcontractor & Vendor Management
  • Materials & Logistics Planning
  • Jobsite Quality Control
  • Customer Communication & Experience
  • Permitting & Special Orders
  • Closeout & Punch List Management
  • Team Leadership & Mentorship

You'll work directly with company leadership, see the results of your efforts firsthand, and gain experience that would typically take years to accumulate in a larger corporate environment.


What Success Looks Like

You'll be the steady hand guiding every project from the pre-construction meeting to the final walk-through.

You'll keep homeowners informed with proactive, friendly communication โ€” morning updates on what's happening, evening updates on what got done.

You'll make sure every subcontractor shows up prepared, understands the full scope of work, and leaves the jobsite clean and professional.

You'll catch problems before they become delays, and keep materials, permits, and special orders moving on schedule.

Most importantly, you'll help us continue building a company known for excellence.


Who Thrives Here

We're looking for someone who:

  • Has construction or project management experience
  • Is naturally organized and detail-oriented
  • Leads subcontractors and crews with confidence and professionalism
  • Communicates clearly, proactively, and warmly with homeowners
  • Takes pride in a clean, well-run jobsite
  • Is comfortable being on-site early and staying hands-on all day
  • Is eager to learn and grow
  • Has an ownership mentality

Construction management experience is helpful, but leadership, communication, and follow-through matter even more.


The Opportunity

Many companies offer a position. We're offering a career path.

As DeckTech continues to grow, this position has the potential to evolve into greater responsibility as you develop a strong understanding of our operations, subcontractor network, and brand standards โ€” including oversight of additional projects, mentorship of Assistant Project Managers, and a growing leadership role within the company.

You'll be responsible for keeping projects moving on schedule, coordinating homeowners and subcontractors at every key milestone, managing materials and deliveries, and ensuring every jobsite reflects DeckTech's standard of professionalism- from the dress code to the yard sign out front.

If you're looking for a place where your leadership matters, your work is visible, and your growth is tied directly to your performance, we'd love to meet you.


Benefits:

  • Full benefits package
  • Dental insurance
  • Health insurance
  • Paid time off
  • Company vehicle

Work Location: In person


How to Apply

If youโ€™re a driven, detail-oriented leader who wants to grow your career, take ownership of your work, and help us continue raising the standard for outdoor living construction in our community, weโ€™d love to hear from you!
