Posting date: 11/17/25

When you think of Westgate Resorts, hospitality, guest services, and front-of-house roles probably spring to mind. But what if we told you that there’s a whole world behind the scenes where engineering skills make a huge impact? 

If you’re an engineer, a retired technician, or someone with hands-on maintenance experience, the general maintenance and engineering jobs at Westgate provide meaningful, steady, and varied work in a hospitality setting.

  • Repairing fixtures and troubleshooting equipment
  • Performing maintenance on plumbing and HVAC systems
  • Inspecting, repairing, and handling the construction and maintenance of projects

There are varied roles and career paths in this department, all suited to varied experience levels. You could find yourself working in General Maintenance Tech, in Facilities Maintenance, or something a little different.
