Heavy Equipment Field Service Technician (Field & Shop)

We are hiring an experienced Heavy Equipment Field Service Technician to maintain and repair a fleet of construction and industrial diesel equipment. This role offers a mix of mobile field service and in-shop repairs, ideal for technicians who like variety and autonomy.

If you enjoy diagnosing real problems—not just changing parts—this role is for you.

What You’ll Work On

• Dozers, excavators, wheel loaders, skid steers, backhoes, telehandlers

• Forklifts, man lifts, generators, and support equipment

• Diesel engines, hydraulics, powertrain, brakes, and steering systems

Key Responsibilities

• Diagnose and repair mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical systems

• Perform mobile service calls for on-site breakdowns and emergency repairs

• Complete in-shop repairs including engine work and hydraulic hose fabrication

• Use diagnostic tools and software to troubleshoot equipment faults

• Perform preventive maintenance to reduce downtime

• Document repairs and communicate findings clearly

What We’re Looking For

• 3+ years hands-on heavy equipment or diesel experience

• Experience with CAT, John Deere, Komatsu, JCB, or similar equipment

• Strong diesel, hydraulic, and electrical knowledge

• Comfortable working independently in the field

• Valid driver’s license and local travel availability

• Welding or fabrication experience is a plus

Why Techs Like This Role

• Mix of field service + shop work (no monotony)

• Work on real equipment, not light-duty vehicles

• Stable workload with modern tools and support
