Devin Chrystal
@devinchrystal
Security Officer and maintenance technician focused on property protection and resident-ready facilities.
What I'm looking for
I’m an experienced Security Officer and Maintenance Technician with over 16 years of security experience and 7 years of apartment maintenance experience. I focus on providing personal, equipment, and property security while helping keep residential and commercial facilities running smoothly.
In my current role, I perform routine property patrols to identify security risks, maintenance deficiencies, and safety hazards. I complete apartment make-readies that include painting, plumbing, electrical repairs, and lock system changes, and I respond to after-hours maintenance emergencies and security calls.
Across previous security and maintenance positions, I’ve conducted regular foot and vehicle patrols, monitored lock systems, gates, and access points, and documented security incidents and maintenance concerns for review. I respond promptly to alarms and emergency situations and provide visible security presence to deter criminal activity.
I bring strong customer service and communication skills, along with hands-on capability in landscaping, common-area upkeep, and facility equipment maintenance. I also support preventive maintenance through HVAC assistance, plumbing repairs, light electrical work, and general handyman services, while identifying safety hazards and security concerns before they escalate.
