Careers at GearAid

At GEAR AID, we champion renewal in all things that we do in the places where we live, work and play. With our values of championing renewal, seeking unsolved problems, caring for gear and having fun—we see a world where people are empowered to buy less, make their gear last longer, and find connection in the outdoors.

Founded in 1981 with a small line of repair adhesives, divers realized our products were stronger than wetsuits. Shortly after, we expanded to include more adhesives, sealants, repair tapes, water repellents, cleaners plus an expansive adventure tool line. With more than 100 products that share the same tenacity, quality and utility, people rely on us for products that last. Because we believe gear should last.  

For anyone who enjoys playing or working in the outdoors, GEAR AID designs essential camp tools and effective products that fix and restore gear. Whether you're climbing a mountain, diving the deep blue sea, fishing in the rain, or camping, we make tools for any adventure.  

Our Team

Serving the full spectrum of outdoor enthusiasts, we are leaders of care and repair products supported by a small, but passionate team. We're looking for team members who are adaptable, self-motivated and creative. To attract the best and brightest, we are committed to providing opportunities, training and a full benefits package. We're proud of our commitment to our employees, our community and our environment and welcome you to submit your application to join the GEAR AID team.
