We’re hiring an experienced Heavy Equipment Mechanic to support a diverse fleet of construction and material handling equipment. This position is primarily shop-based, with scheduled field service work—not constant dispatch or unpredictable road calls.

Troubleshoot complex issues across multiple equipment brands

Strong knowledge of hydraulics and electrical diagnostics
Ability to work both in-shop and in the field when needed
Own tools (standard for the trade)
Self-motivated and dependable
Why This Job Stands Out
No constant field dispatch or excessive travel
Multi-brand fleet = better skill growth and less monotony
Stable hours vs. unpredictable dealership workloads
