• Complete all required documentation and service reports.
• Communicate estimated repair times to supervisors promptly.
• Track and follow up on parts orders for assigned jobs.
• Maintain and inspect tools per OSHA safety standards.
• Report any unsafe conditions or faulty equipment to management.

• High school diploma or GED required.
• 3–5 years of hands‑on mechanic experience or recent graduation from a tech/vocational school.
• Must own standard mechanic toolset.
• Strong knowledge of heavy/construction equipment.
• Proficient in reading and interpreting electrical and hydraulic schematics.
• Ability to use diagnostic tools and service software.
• Clear and professional communication skills.
• Reliable, self‑motivated, and able to work with minimal supervision.
• Team-oriented with a strong work ethic.
• Valid driver’s license.
• Commitment to safety at all times.

Physical & Working Conditions

• Work environment includes both indoor shop and outdoor field settings.
• Must be able to lift up to 50 lbs.
• Prolonged sitting, standing, bending, and kneeling may be required.
• Must pass a pre‑employment physical exam.
• Regular exposure to machinery, tools, and outdoor elements.
