Our Mission:
At WeMaintain, we believe that smart buildings start with the people who keep them running. That’s why we give engineers the autonomy, time, and recognition they deserve, because they’re the ones who truly understand what’s happening on the ground.
To support them, we build our own technology—hardware and software—that gives real-time, reliable data to improve how buildings are managed, maintained, and upgraded.
Join us to lead the building operations transformation, where grit meets purpose, and people grow through trust, responsibility, and impact.
Why Join Us?
WeMaintain is for those who want to feel trusted, respected, and challenged. If you’re here to just do the minimum, it won’t work. But if you’re here to grow, you’ll be trusted, supported, and given room to grow.
Our Values — What They Mean for You
🤝 Care
We take the time to support our teammates, listen, and make decisions that respect people, whether it’s a field engineer’s safety issue, a colleague’s mental load, or a client’s challenge.
At WeMaintain, care shows up in real ways: flexible work, open feedback, and helping out even when it’s “not your job.”
💪 Grit
We don’t give up when things get tough. We adapt, we learn fast, and we push through challenges with determination and focus. We know building something meaningful isn’t easy, and that’s what makes it worth it.
Grit here means being reliable, taking ownership, and staying solutions-oriented, especially when there’s no clear path.
🌱 Uniqueness
We value what makes each person different. Whether it’s a background, a skill, or a way of thinking, we believe our strength comes from diversity and authenticity. There’s no mold to fit into here.
At WeMaintain, your voice matters. You’re encouraged to speak up, try new things, and bring your full self to work.
🙌 Living Our Values
These values aren’t optional—they’re how we decide who joins, how we work together, and how we grow.
At WeMaintain, we build powerful tech, but it’s our culture that sustains our growth.
Whether you’re in the field, at your desk, or building our next product, Care, Grit, and Uniqueness are the foundation of how we operate and the filter for everything we build.
Technology makes us go fast. Culture helps us go far.
