Elite Laptop Repair Technician (Tier 3) Temp to Perm  

Youngsville, NC | Full-time, Monday to Friday | Hourly + uncapped bonus  

Bring It Home 

For years, difficult computer repairs were shipped overseas. The work left, the jobs left, and the craft went with them. We're bringing it back. 

At PlanITROI, we're building the world's greatest computer repair and refurbishment facility in Youngsville, North Carolina. Every device you repair proves that U.S.-based technicians deliver the speed, quality, and value to win this work back and keep it. 

About PlanITROI 

Since 2001, PlanITROI has been an IT lifecycle services company for OEMs, retailers, enterprises, education, and SMB organizations. We run on one philosophy: reuse-as-intended-use. Retired IT still has value, so we reuse it before we recycle. 

We turn returned, retired, and idle laptops, PCs, smartphones, and tablets into recertified, affordable technology, sold directly and through the largest retailers in the world. Our repair floor is where that value gets recovered. 

The Role 

Can-Do Attitude + Attitude of Gratitude + Team Player + Reliability + Wanting to build something bigger than yourself. 

This is the highest technical tier on our Computer Repair Team. You'll take on the toughest diagnostics and board-level repairs, set the quality bar for the line, and coach the technicians around you. 

The baseline is 22+ complete, quality repairs per day. You'll work mostly on laptops, along with all-in-ones, desktops, tablets, smartphones, servers, and Apple devices. This is a temp-to-perm opportunity with a 90-day conversion.
