2. Facilities Maintenance Mechanic (WG-8 to WG-10)
Skilled maintenance workers preserve historic lodges, repair utility systems, and maintain park infrastructure. The National Park Service hires these trades through the Federal Wage System (FWS).
These blue-collar roles pay hourly wages ranging from $24 to $35 or more. At major parks like Yosemite, WG-10 maintenance electricians earn between $28.48 and $33.22 per hour.
Retirees with backgrounds in carpentry, electrical work, plumbing, or automotive repair thrive in these positions. You can work with your hands in stunning natural settings while commanding top-tier hourly compensation.
