Job Summary
Jake’s Unlimited is seeking a Maintenance Technician – Facilities & Attractions to support the upkeep and operation of our 90,000 sq. ft. indoor entertainment facility, including building systems, arcade games, bowling, and carnival-style rides. This is a hands‑on, cross‑functional role for someone who enjoys variety in their day — from general facility repairs to supporting mechanical systems and attractions.
