Job Description
Job Overview We sell, service, and customize golf carts for homeowners, courses, resorts, and communities across Central Florida. Our shop stays busy year-round, and we're hiring a technician. Cart experience is great and it'll get you a higher starting wage. But it's not a dealbreaker. If you've turned wrenches on anything — cars, mowers, ATVs, motorcycles, boats, farm equipment — and you're the kind of person who figures things out instead of guessing, we'll train you on carts. Most of what makes a good cart tech is diagnostic sense and patience, and that part you either have or you don't. Duties Diagnose and repair electric carts — 48V and 72V systems, lithium and lead-acid packs, controllers, solenoids, chargers, drive motors, wiring harnesses Diagnose and repair gas carts — carburetors and fuel systems, ignition, clutches and drive belts, starter/generators, engine work Run pre-delivery inspections on new and used inventory before it goes out the door Perform scheduled maintenance: brakes, bearings, suspension, steering, tires, battery watering and load testing Install accessories and upgrades — lift kits, wheels and tires, lighting, seat kits, enclosures, audio Track down intermittent electrical faults with a multimeter, load tester, and manufacturer diagnostic tools Document every repair accurately — what you found, what you did, parts and time Explain repairs to customers in plain English when needed Keep your bay clean, your tools accounted for, and the shop safe If you're new to carts, you'll start on maintenance, inspections, and accessory installs alongside an experienced tech, and move into diagnostics as fast as you're ready. Requirements Genuine mechanical aptitude and a track record of fixing things, in a shop or on your own Comfortable using a multimeter, or willing to learn it quickly — electrical work is most of this job Reliable and on time, every day. Small shop, so when someone's out everyone feels it Valid driver's license and a clean enough record to move carts and drive company vehicles Able to lift 50+ lbs, and to bend, kneel, and stay on your feet through a full shift Your own basic hand tools (we'll cover the specialty stuff) Preferred — earns you a higher starting wage Prior golf cart, powersports, small engine, marine, or automotive repair experience Experience with DC electrical systems and reading wiring diagrams Familiarity with Club Car, E-Z-GO, Yamaha, ICON, or Evolution Lithium battery system experience (BMS diagnostics, pack balancing) Welding or fabrication skills for custom builds Experience with shop management or work order software Join us as a Golf Cart Technician if you're passionate about vehicle maintenance and eager to develop your skills in a vibrant environment that values precision, safety, and customer satisfaction!
