Job Title: Lead Appliance Repair Technician

Location: San Diego, CA (Encinitas-Carlsbad-San Marcos -N. San Diego-La Jolla-Del Mar areas)

Job Description:

Residential Appliance Repair Technician

Sealed System Experience Strongly Preferred

$1,000–$2,200 per week (based on experience & performance)

Seeking a Residential Appliance Repair Technician who brings deep technical knowledge, confidence in complex diagnostics, and pride in doing the job right the first time. We are especially interested in candidates with hands-on sealed system experience — refrigerant recovery, evacuation, recharge, leak detection, and brazing — who can take on our most technical refrigeration and freezer calls. This role is ideal for a technician who wants autonomy and the chance to help elevate the entire team.

If you value working with people you actually like, having fun while you work, and protecting your free time, this is the place for you. We'll also give you the ongoing training you need to keep growing.

What You'll Do

Diagnose and repair complex residential appliance issues across major brands, including refrigerators, freezers, wine/beverage coolers, ranges, ovens, cooktops, dishwashers, washers, and dryers

Perform sealed system diagnostics and repair, including compressor replacement, refrigerant recovery/evacuation/recharge, leak detection (nitrogen pressure testing and electronic detectors), and brazing of copper and aluminum lines

Deliver top-tier customer experiences with clarity and professionalism

Provide accurate cost estimates and clearly explain repair options to homeowners

Order parts, manage van inventory, and ensure efficient use of company materials

Collect payment and close out work orders accurately in SmartWare

Help improve training, processes, and first-time fix rates

What We're Looking For (Required)

5+ years of appliance repair or advanced technical experience

EPA Section 608 Universal Certification, or ability to obtain within 30 days of hire (required for any sealed system refrigerant work)

Strong diagnostic skills across multiple appliance categories, with demonstrated hands-on sealed system repair experience

Comfort reading wiring diagrams, schematics, and service manuals, and proficiency with a multimeter and standard refrigeration gauges/manifold sets

High standards for quality, safety, and customer service

Valid driver's license and clean driving record

Ownership of basic hand tools; Mr. Appliance provides specialty diagnostic equipment, refrigerant recovery machine access, and the company vehicle

Ability to read, write, and speak English

Must be able to lift or maneuver 50 pounds

Authorized to work in the U.S.

Strongly Preferred

Hands-on sealed system / refrigeration repair experience (2+ years) — this is our highest-priority hiring need

Formal refrigeration training or certification (e.g., RSES, NATE, HVAC/R trade school)

SmartWare experience

Experience servicing premium/luxury residential brands (Sub-Zero, Wolf, Viking, Thermador, Dacor, or similar)

Bilingual (English/Spanish) is always a plus

Why This Role Stands Out

Top-of-market weekly earning potential, with a premium for verified sealed system skills

Substantial training opportunities and career advancement through the Mr. Appliance Academy

Autonomy and trust — no micromanagement

Opportunity to influence training and technical standards

Stable operation with growth opportunities

A company that values culture, craftsmanship, and character

Benefits & Pay

The pay range for this position is $1,000 to $2,200 weekly, depending on your experience in appliance repair — including a premium for verified sealed system skills. You'll also have the opportunity to earn bonuses and commissions.

Paid Training: We will train you and help you build a career.

Bonus & Incentives: We reward hard work with generous bonuses and incentive pay

Company-Provided Perks: We provide you with a company vehicle and iPad

Benefits: Offering retirement benefits

PTO: Paid time off of 5 days per year plus holidays

Fun Team Environment: We stand by our culture and build our team with people who love what they do

Physical Requirements & Accommodations

Physical Demands: This role requires the ability to lift or maneuver 50 pounds

Accommodations: If you require a reasonable accommodation to perform these essential functions or to participate in the application or interview process, please let us know

Employment Type: Employment is "at-will," meaning either the employee or the employer may terminate the relationship at any time, for any legal reason

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
