Night Shift Cleaning Technician

Lead Technician – Hood & Exhaust Cleaning

At Kitchen Guard of Greater Seattle, we hire professionals who show up, speak up, and pull their own weight—every time. If you've ever worked with someone who blames their car for being late (again), disappears for a "quick break" then never actually helps, or ghosts the team when it's inconvenient (you know the type) you'll appreciate how seriously we take our standards. We don't make excuses, we don't tolerate no-shows, and we definitely don't hire those who can't carry their own load.

We're looking for dependable, hands-on technicians from fields like overnight shipping and logistics, pest control, power washing, military logistics, or HVAC who take pride in solving tough problems and delivering top-tier service as a team.
