Got A Mind for Problem-Solving? You Might Belong in the Trades
Before we talk about what it’s like to work in the trades, picture a Rubik’s Cube. Maybe you had one as a kid – or maybe it’s still sitting on a shelf somewhere.
Fun fact about Rubik’s Cubes: each one has over 43 quintillion possible combinations. That’s roughly 370 million times more than the total number of humans who have ever lived. Talk about a puzzle. But, as with any puzzle, the key is knowing where to start – and being willing to stick with it.
Just like solving a Rubik’s Cube, a career in the trades takes two key traits: a sharp mind that loves problem-solving, and the hands-on ability to turn that thinking into action.
For a lot of people, that hands-on work beats sitting behind a desk any day of the week. If you’ve got a problem-solving brain, hands that like to build, and the discipline to grow a little every day, you’ll find the work fulfilling, challenging, and empowering.
In the trades, you build real skills and get rewarded for doing real work – no matter where you’re starting from.
This is Purpose-Driven Work with Real Impact
Our mission? Keep families comfortable in their homes. You’ll become the one who fixes what’s broken – who brings calm, safety, and relief to a sometimes chaotic situation. That’s real value and real responsibility.
But we’ll be honest – it’s not easy. The trades will test you. You’ll work hard, sweat a little (or a lot), and face the kind of challenges that build grit. The good news? You’ll never face them alone. At Mattioni, you’re surrounded by teammates doing the same – led by experts who once stood in your shoes (well, boots.) We take our team dynamic and team accountability seriously – for everyone.
We invest in you early – because you’re not just here to fill a role. You’re here to grow into a pro.
What It’s Like to Start Your Career at Mattioni
On day one you’ll get matched up with a seasoned tech and walk through Mattioni’s hands-on training lab, where you’ll practice real-world work in a zero-pressure environment. From there, we build your confidence step-by-step. You’ll ride along with experienced crews, learn the ‘how’ and the ‘why’ behind every fix, and start stacking real skills.
Within five years, many of our team members are leading jobs, mentoring apprentices, or earning certifications that unlock serious earning potential. And they’ll all tell you the same thing: it’s not just their skillset that’s changed – it’s the professional they’ve become along the way.
At Mattioni, you’re surrounded by people who care about getting better, who push each other, and who celebrate wins together – big or small. We keep it real, we keep it fun, and we never forget why we’re here: to take care of each other and our customers.
