Lawn Care Technician

Full-time

Ideal for a golf course spray technician or assistant superintendent seeking predictable weekdays, modern equipment, and quality focused turf work.


Barefoot Lawn is seeking an experienced turf professional for a full time year round lawn care technician position in Westmoreland County Pennsylvania.

Before starting Barefoot Lawn, I spent years working on golf courses. I understand long days, weather driven schedules, weekend work, and burnout. This role is built for someone who enjoys turf work but wants predictable weekdays, modern equipment, and trust to do the job right.

This is not an entry level position. Candidates should already understand turfgrass, products, and proper application practices. You will be trusted to manage a route independently and make sound turf decisions.

Route Design and Daily Flow
Routes are tight and built around quality over quantity. Typical routes range from 12 to 20 lawns depending on property size.

Start times are flexible. Most days begin around 8am, with technicians typically back at the shop around 2pm to prep for the next day and heading home by 3pm. There is no pressure to stay late once the work is done correctly.

Schedule and Lifestyle
Predictable weekday schedule
Monday through Friday only
No weekend work
No holiday work
Paid rain days

Weather dictates the day. On full washout days, we stay home.

Autonomy and Trust
Technicians organize their routes in the way that makes the most sense for them. Our software adjusts to your route, not the other way around.

You are trusted to make weather and condition based decisions, including rescheduling applications when appropriate. Quality and timing matter more than forcing work.

Equipment and Work Conditions
We do not pull hose. All lawn applications are performed using modern ride on spreader sprayers and professional turf equipment designed to improve efficiency and reduce physical strain.

Customer Interaction
There is no door knocking and no sales pressure. Scheduling communication and invoicing are fully digital.

Technicians are not required to upsell. Simply make professional recommendations when needed.

Winter and Professional Development
This is a year round salaried position with no winter layoffs.
Winter pesticide credit events are paid for.
Winter shop projects and planning work are available and flexible and can be discussed in person.

Growth and Culture
Barefoot Lawn is growing and this role supports that growth. There is opportunity to advance as the business continues to expand.

We operate with open communication and a high level of trust. Once the work is done right, go home and spend time with your family.
