Job Description

Summary:
We are seeking an experienced Heavy-Duty Diesel Mechanic with a minimum of 3 years’ experience to maintain and repair diesel and gas-powered trucks, trailers, hydraulic cranes, drilling rig engines, forklifts, and other mechanized equipment. You will be a key team member responsible for diagnosing and repairing mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical systems to ensure safe and efficient operations. EPA, DOT, and OSHA knowledge is highly preferred.

Responsibilities:

  • Rebuild, maintain, and repair diesel and gasoline trucks, trailers, hydraulic cranes, drilling rig engines, mud pumps, rotary tables, backhoes, forklifts, and other heavy equipment.
  • Diagnose mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic issues using precision instruments and diagnostic tools (e.g., micrometers, dial indicators, multimeters).
  • Troubleshoot and perform failure analysis on component parts and systems.
  • Ensure compliance with DOT, EPA, and OSHA regulations.
  • Operate forklifts and overhead cranes as needed to position equipment for repair.
  • Maintain accurate records of repairs, inspections, and parts usage.

Qualifications:

  • Minimum 3 years of experience as a diesel mechanic with heavy equipment, trucks, or industrial machinery.
  • Strong mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical troubleshooting skills.
  • Proficiency with hand tools, diagnostic instruments, and welding/fabrication is a plus.
  • Knowledge of transmissions, air brake systems, suspension, and HVAC systems.
  • Dealership or rig maintenance experience is a plus.
  • Excellent communication and customer service skills.
  • Ability to work safely in a warehouse or job site environment.
  • EPA or OSHA certifications beneficial.

Why This Works:

  • Keywords like “Heavy-Duty Diesel Mechanic,” “Hydraulic Systems,” “Trucks,” “Rig Equipment,” and “Industrial Machinery” target highly qualified candidates.
  • Including both diesel and gas expands applicant volume without lowering quality.
  • Listing specific equipment and systems (cranes, mud pumps, forklifts, HVAC) filters for candidates with relevant expertise.
  • Emphasizing certifications and compliance appeals to candidates who take safety seriously and are qualified for industrial work.
