Job description

Job Title:  Band Instrument Repair Technician – Tier 1 (Early Career)

Reports to:  Repair Manager

Status: Full Time

Role Summary

Schmitt Music is seeking to hire several new Band Repair Technicians at each of our company-owned shops (Bloomington, MN; Fargo, ND; Sioux Falls, SD; and Omaha, NE) as part of a major expansion of the instrument repair and restoration team. These positions play a key role in delivering a seamless service experience for customers and schools by combining technical expertise with strong collaboration and communication based on Schmitt Music’s core values: Serve Your Customer, Do What’s Right, and Continuous Improvement.

Why Schmitt Music

For more than 125 years, Schmitt Music has existed for one purpose: to enrich lives by helping people make music. As the Upper Midwest’s premier supplier and service center for school music and beginning band programs, we support thousands of students, educators, and schools each year.

At the same time, Schmitt Music is also home to one of the region’s largest selections of intermediate and professional-level instruments. Our Bloomington showroom gives technicians rare, hands-on exposure to some of the finest instruments available, creating learning opportunities that simply don’t exist in most repair environments.

Our repair teams are central to this mission. Every instrument that leaves a Schmitt Music bench supports a student’s first note, a program’s success, or a professional musician’s performance. We invest in technicians the same way we invest in music education: for the long term.

Start Your Career Where Craftsmanship and Education Meet.

The Tier 1 Band Instrument Repair Technician role is designed for new graduates and early career technicians who want to build a real career, not just get a first job. At Schmitt Music, you’ll take what you learned in school and apply it in a professional, supportive environment where mentorship, growth, and clear expectations are built into the role.

As a Tier 1 technician, your day is focused on learning and practice. You’ll spend time at the bench reconditioning company-owned brass and woodwind instruments, building consistency and speed. You’ll work alongside experienced technicians who answer questions, provide feedback, and help you refine your craft. Each day builds confidence, skill, and readiness for the next level.

Key Responsibilities

• Recondition company-owned brass and woodwind instruments to Schmitt Music standards

• Maintain accurate repair documentation, tagging, and tracking of instruments within the retail store environment

• Care for instruments, tools, and shop resources with professionalism and accountability

• Identify opportunities to improve repair processes, turnaround times, and communication between service and retail teams

What We’re Looking For

• Graduate of a formal band instrument repair program preferred (Red Wing, WITCC, or similar)

• Strong attention to detail and pride in craftsmanship

• Desire to learn, grow, and build a long-term career

• Basic proficiency in brass and woodwind repair preferred

Tuition Reimbursement – Investing in Your Education

Schmitt Music is proud to offer an industry-first tuition reimbursement program for qualified Tier 1 technicians. We believe the cost of learning the trade should not be a barrier to building a career in repair. This program is designed to help reduce student loan burden while rewarding commitment, performance, and long-term growth with Schmitt Music.

Why This Role Is Different

• Highly competitive starting wage

• Tuition reimbursement for qualified graduates

• Structured mentorship and defined advancement path to Tier 2
