• Test mechanical equipment after repair or assembly to guarantee proper performance and compliance with manufacturers’ specifications.
• Have hydraulic experience.
• Have diesel experience.
• Have an aptitude for electrical systems.
• Be a safe driver with a clean driving record.
• Be able to pass preemployment physical exam, background check, and drug screen.

Bonus: Do you have prior mechanical and technical experience with large mobile equipment? That's strongly preferred!
