Hours	Full-time
Location	Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

Job Description

The specific title "Wet Tech" (or Wet Technical Stage Crew) at the Hatfield & McCoy Dinner Feud in Pigeon Forge is a highly specialized live-production role.

It supports the show's famous 22-foot-deep diving hole, which features high-diving stunts, splashing comedy, and diving dogs.

"Wet Tech" responsibilities combine traditional theatrical stage management with aquatics safety and specialized mechanical operations.

Core Responsibilities

Aquatic Stage Operations: Managing the mechanical lifts, traps, and moving stage elements that transition the floor from a solid stage to an open diving pool during the show.
Deck Safety & Cueing: Ensuring the splash zones and diving platforms are clear of debris, managing props used in water sequences, and verifying visual safety cues for the divers and high-diving performers.
Water Effects Maintenance: Operating and troubleshooting specialized water systems, including underwater lighting, pumps, splash-back drains, and pool filtration systems.
Pre/Post-Show Maintenance: Performing daily checks on mechanical deck seals, water levels, and emergency underwater safety equipment.

Typical Qualifications

Experience: 1+ years in live theater tech, stage crew, or theme park stunt show operations.
Aquatic Familiarity: Comfort working directly over and around deep water. Standard scuba certification or basic lifeguard safety knowledge is a massive plus, though companies often provide on-the-job training.
Physical Demands: Ability to lift up to 50+ lbs, climb tall scaffolding or diving platforms, and work dynamically in a humid, high-energy environment.
PADI certification is required.
