Required knowledge and skills include:
- Knowledge of landscaping equipment and tools, including use, repair, and preventive maintenance

- Skill in routine equipment upkeep, diagnosing operating errors, and selecting corrective action
- Ability to repair machines/systems using appropriate tools

If you lead with standards, organization, and integrity, apply to be our Golf Course Landscaping Superintendent.

You’ll start early onsite in Pharr, walking key areas to get a clear read on turf, plantings, and overall presentation before play ramps up. After a quick check-in with the team, you’ll move between holes and landscape zones, noting what needs attention now versus what can be scheduled for later in the week. Midday often includes documenting observations, adjusting sequencing as conditions change, and confirming equipment is ready for the next shift of work. The typical schedule is Monday–Friday, 5:30 a.m.–2:00 p.m., with flexibility for evenings, weekends, and holidays when course needs require it.
