About J&W Mobile Detailing:
We're a premium mobile detailing company serving the Bay Area. We don't run a wash bucket and a sponge; we use professional ceramic coatings, high-quality products, and proprietary waterless wash systems to deliver detail jobs that other shops in this area can't match. Our clients pay premium prices because we deliver premium work.
We're young, fast-growing, and scaling toward $50K/month in monthly revenue. If you want to grow with a brand instead of clocking in at a job, keep reading.
The Role:
We're hiring a part-time floater detailer to support our lead techs on busy days and overflow jobs. "Floater" means flexible — you're on-call when our schedule is packed, when a client books last-minute, or when we need a third hand on a big job. Perfect for someone who wants to learn the premium detailing trade, earn real money on commission, and prove themselves in a full-time spot as we grow.
You don't need 5 years of detailing experience. You need character, an eye for detail, and the work ethic to show up and crush it. We'll train you on the rest.
What You'll Do:
- Travel with our team in our branded van to client locations (you meet us in Oakland).
- Wash, decontaminate, and detail vehicles to J&W standards.
- Assist on paint correction prep, ceramic coating prep, and interior deep cleans.
- Maintain equipment, chemicals, and the van between jobs.
- Represent the J&W brand professionally — our clients see you, not just the work.
What We're Looking For:
- Reliable transportation to our Oakland location.
- Valid driver's license + clean driving record.
- Detail-obsessed mindset — this is the #1 trait we hire for.
- Strong work ethic. We move fast. We don't carry passengers.
- Comfortable working in Texas heat, on your feet, for 8+ hour days.
- Clean appearance and communication that matches a premium brand.
- Bonus (not required): Prior detailing, car wash, valet, or auto industry experience.
What You Get:
- $20–$30/hour effective rate ( Which is 20% commision of Job + Cash Tips)
- Tips on top of commission
- Paid hands-on training with Gyeon, Koch-Chemie, and pro-grade equipment most shops never touch
- 1099 Independent Contracting
- Branded gear and uniforms provided
- Direct path to full-time / lead tech positions as we scale — we promote from within
Schedule:
Part-time, on-call. Most work falls on Weekends and weekday overflow. Hours vary week to week — could be 0 one week, 25 the next. Must be available on weekends consistently.
We move fast on hiring. Strong applicants get a call within 12 hours.
