This page reads every active posting whose normalized title is Maintenance Technician across the ten boards JobsPipe collects and reports what those employers ask for: the seniority they target, whether the role is remote, whether pay is disclosed, the skills named in the text, and the industries, countries and company sizes behind the postings.

<0.5% of these postings are marked remote, 38.4% state a salary or range, the most common seniority label is mid level at 19.6%. Postings with no seniority label are counted in the denominator, so the seniority shares do not sum to one.

## FAQ

### What share of maintenance technician job postings are remote?

<0.5% of the active postings on this page carry a remote flag. The flag is read from the posting itself, so hybrid roles that never say remote are counted as on-site. Filter the API with remote set to true and the same scope to reproduce the figure.

### How many maintenance technician postings disclose salary?

38.4% state a salary or a range in the posting text or structured fields. Disclosure varies more by board and by jurisdiction than by role, so compare the figure with the board-level shares on the sources pages before reading it as a market signal.

### Which skills appear most in maintenance technician postings?

The most named skills are communication (33.4%), compliance (18.4%), customer-support (15.2%), osha (15.1%), teamwork (13.5%). Skills are extracted from the posting text against a curated lexicon, and a posting counts once per skill it names, so the shares overlap.

### Which industries hire the most maintenance technician roles?

By ISIC division, the largest shares are Real estate (10.4%), Food manufacturing (4.1%), Accommodation (2.9%). Industry is resolved from the employer's classification where known, and postings without a classification are excluded from this cut.

### Which functions are employers in Maintenance Technician hiring for?

The largest functions by share of postings are Manufacturing (26.1%), Engineering (23.5%), Management and Manufacturing (19.7%), Construction & Trades (16.5%). Function is assigned from the normalized title and the posting text.

### Where do these numbers come from?

From JobsPipe's live index of postings on the ten boards it collects, deduplicated by posting id and counted on 2026-09-09. Only shares are published; the underlying counts stay private. Every figure can be reproduced against the JobsPipe API with the filters shown on this page.
