Job summary

SWS Equipment, Inc. is seeking a skilled field/service technician to install, troubleshoot, repair, retrofit and maintain our balers, compactors, refuse trucks, vacuum trucks and street sweepers both in shop and on customer sites.

You’ll work with bodies, hydraulic systems, electrical and welding, reading schematics and technical specs, and you’ll be the on-site expert coordinating with dispatchers to meet commitments. Training is provided, and advancement tracks exist.

Qualifications

  • Strong mechanical repair skill and the judgment to work with minimal supervision.
  • Comfort reading electrical and hydraulic schematics.
  • Welding experience.
  • Your own set of hand tools beyond the basics.
  • Ability to juggle priorities and keep an organized, efficient workflow.
  • Authorization to work in the United States. SWS Equipment does not sponsor employment visas for this role.

Responsibilities

  • Install, troubleshoot, repair, retrofit and maintain equipment (balers, compactors, refuse trucks, vacuum trucks, street sweepers and related machinery) in our shop and at customer sites.
  • Work the equipment side rather than the chassis powertrain. Bodies, hydraulic systems, electrical, controls and welding are the job. Engine and transmission work is not part of this role.
  • Read and work from hydraulic and electrical schematics and technical specifications.
  • Diagnose and repair systems and components, then test your work before it goes back to the customer.
  • Prep and commission new equipment for delivery.
  • Advise customers directly. You’re the person they trust to tell them what’s really going on with their equipment.
  • Coordinate with dispatchers and service advisors to hit customer commitments, and complete service documentation so billing and warranty are clean the first time.
  • Follow every safety policy and process, every time.
