Service Technician

AquaWorx Job Post

What started as a desire to solve the safety issues facing the pool and spa industry, has turned into the largest, packaged filtration manufacturer for both the recreational and commercial aquatics industries. AquaWorx was founded in 2009 in St. Petersburg, Florida and has been continuously evolving ever since. The passing of the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act led to the development of our revolutionary collector tanks. Our industry knowledge allowed AquaWorx to expand to the manufacture of state-of-the-art filtration systems and immaculate water features.
