About Us 

Gophermods was founded in 2010 in Minneapolis, MN and has grown into a nationwide partner for schools and small to medium-sized businesses. We support every stage of the technology lifecycle - computer repair, device refurbishment, and professional services. Located in New Brighton, MN, just minutes from downtown Minneapolis in the Twin Cities metro, we're a small company with a big mission, guided by three values: set the standard, be curious, and thrive together. 

Who This Role Is For

You'll spend most of your day at a repair bench diagnosing, repairing, and refurbishing laptops, Chromebooks, MacBooks, iPads, Surface devices, and desktops. Every repair follows a standard operating procedure, every device gets a quality assurance check, every workspace stays clean.

You'll thrive here if you:

  • Follow a process consistently and take pride in doing it right
  • Work at a steady pace without needing someone over your shoulder
  • Ask questions early rather than guess

Things we'll coach you on:

  • Understanding why each repair step exists, not just what to do
  • Building speed on screen replacements, battery swaps, and component repairs without sacrificing quality

No technical background needed. Assembly, quality inspection, warehouse work, food production, automotive repair, electronics as a hobby are welcome.

Device Provisioning & Deployment

  • Configure, image, stage, and package laptops, Chromebooks, and tablets for delivery to schools and businesses

Documentation

  • Record serial numbers, asset tags, repair notes, and device status in ticketing and inventory systems

Teamwork

  • Keep your bench clean and organized; flag hardware issues, bottlenecks, or quality concerns early

Benefits

  • 401(k) with 4% employer match 
  • Health, Dental & Vision insurance (employer pays 50% of employee premium) 
  • 100% employer-paid Short-Term and Long-Term Disability
