Each day you will service trucks and equipment that support over 20 million customers nationwide, using modern tools to maintain diesel and, at some sites, CNG fleets. Your work ensures the community’s transportation needs are met.
Key duties include diagnosing and repairing electrical, hydraulic, suspension, brake and air systems, estimating repair costs, responding to emergency breakdowns, performing safety checks, and documenting work according to Standard Labor Repair Times.
Candidates must have at least two years of relevant experience, a valid driver’s license with a clean record, be over 18, and be legally authorized to work in the United States. They must also pass a pre‑employment drug screen, physical, and be able to meet the job’s physical demands.
The role requires frequent lifting, pushing, pulling, crouching, climbing, and constant standing, with exposure to chemicals, noise, dirt, and weather extremes. Work is performed both inside the shop and outdoors in inclement conditions.
