We can teach you the rest if you come to work daily with a great attitude, a willingness to learn, a passion to serve, and a desire to be great at what you do. We seek a motivated and reliable individual to join our growing team.
A Water Damage Restoration Technician performs various tasks, from assisting with production processes to maintaining a clean and organized warehouse.
About Us:
Certified Restoration Mission is San Diego's leading disaster restoration company with 30+ years of experience serving residential and commercial clients.

This is a key role for someone ready to grow from technician to project leader in the restoration industry.

Respond to emergency mitigation situations: water, fire, flood, mold, and more
Perform water extraction, structural drying, board-up, and full restoration tasks
Demolish and remove drywall, carpet, insulation, and other damaged materials
Prepare properties for mold remediation clearance testing
Coordinate with testing companies, abatement contractors, and pack-out vendors
Serve as the primary on-site customer contact — calm, professional, solution-focused
Complete daily scope sheets, upload job photos, and maintain thorough project documentation
Oversee and direct a team of restoration technicians
Ensure company vehicles are properly maintained and organized
What We're Looking For
Required
Minimum 1 year of water damage restoration experience
Valid driver's license with a clean driving record

Must pass a criminal background check

Prior lead technician or crew supervisor experience
Familiarity with documentation platforms and scope sheet processes
You're a Great Fit If You're

A natural communicator who earns customer trust on-site
Driven to grow into project management over time
Benefits
Competitive compensation (based on experience)
