Bicycle Mechanic

Prevelo Bikes is a fast growing direct to consumer premium kids' bike brand. We ship bikes to families all over the world, and we need help! We're a small company and we all work together. If you've ever been interested in working for a bicycle brand, this is a chance to work side by side with people that design, source, brand and market bicycles. As a Bicycle Technician you will help prep and tune bikes before they are shipped to customers. The job entails (1) adjusting brakes, headsets, derailleurs, and checking chain tension, (2) truing wheels, (3) checking the overall tightness, assembly quality, and safety of bikes, (4) installing accessories, (5) conducting final checks to make sure bikes meet our quality standards, (6) packing bikes for shipment, and (7) working with our fulfillment software to label and ship bikes. Since we're a small team, you'll also pitch in on other shop and warehouse tasks as needed. That can include unloading shipping containers, keeping the warehouse clean and organized, and refurbishing returned or used bikes so they're ready for resale.
