Maintenance Technician

Maintenance Technician - Mornings Only, Done by 11 AM

Culver’s of Arden, NC is hiring a skilled, self-motivated Maintenance Technician to keep our restaurant running smoothly. This is a hands-on, purely maintenance-focused role — no customer service, no floor duties. You’ll work independently during morning hours, knock out repairs and upkeep before the lunch rush, and be done with your day by 10–11 AM. Perfect for tradespeople who want their afternoons back.

Pay & Schedule

•      $20–$24/hour based on experience and skill set — the more you bring, the higher you land

•      Full-time or part-time — we’re flexible for the right person

•      Mornings only — most work wraps by 10–11 AM

•      Stable, consistent schedule you can plan your life around

•      Next Day Pay — get paid the day after you work

•      Health, Dental & Vision benefits available for qualifying team members

•      Employee meal discounts and direct deposit

Why This Schedule Works

If you’re a semi-retired tradesperson, a parent who wants to be home when the kids get off the bus, someone running a side business in the afternoons, or just done with chasing emergency calls at midnight — this is the job. You come in early, do quality work, head home by lunch. No on-call. No nights. No weekends required.

What You’ll Be Doing

•      General repairs throughout the restaurant — fixtures, hardware, and more

•      Service kitchen equipment to ensure reliable day-to-day operation

•      Basic plumbing repairs and upkeep

•      Patch, prep, and paint walls and surfaces as needed

•      Maintain exterior landscaping — mulching, bed upkeep, and trash & debris cleanup

•      Replace or repair exhaust fans, hoods, and ventilation components

•      Routine walkthroughs to catch maintenance needs before they become problems

•      Assist with truck order days — organizing and putting away inventory (2–3x per week)
