ASP - America's Swimming Pool Company is a leading pool service provider known for delivering "resort-quality" service. We combine strong systems, technology, and high standards to create a better experience for both customers and team members.
About the Role:
Looking for more than just a job?
We're a fast-growing pool service company hiring our first Pool Maintenance Technician. This role is ideal for someone who wants to build a career in pool maintenance, field service, or route-based work-not just clock in and out.
Start by running a pool cleaning and maintenance route, with a clear path to Route Manager / Operations Lead as we grow.
Responsibilities
  • Perform weekly pool maintenance (cleaning, water chemical balancing, basic troubleshooting)
  • Keep routes efficient and organized
  • Manage chemical inventory on the truck
  • Use a smart phone app (Pool Brain) to manage service tasks
  • Identify repair needs and communicate them
  • Provide professional, friendly customer communication

What We're Looking For
  • Reliable and punctual (non-negotiable)
  • Self-starter who takes ownership and works independently
  • Willingness to learn and improve (no experience required)
  • Comfortable working outdoors in Texas heat
  • Valid driver's license with clean driving record
  • Ability to lift up to 100 lbs.

High school diploma and/or Certified Pool Operator (CPO) preferred but not required.
Growth OpportunityThis role is designed to grow into more than just a technician position. As the business expands, you'll have the opportunity to:
  • Manage your own maintenance route
  • Help hire and train new technicians
  • Contribute to route planning and efficiency
  • Move into a leadership/manager role with increased pay

Pay and Perks:
  • Starting pay: $17-$17.50/hour (based on experience)
  • Performance-based raises at 3, 6 and 12 months
  • Monthly bonuses ((performance, customer satisfaction, route growth, repair commissions)
  • Company truck provided
  • Paid vacation (after 1 year) + 6 paid holidays

Next Steps:
If you're looking for a role where you can grow into something bigger-not just another job-we'd love to hear from you.
