Mechanical Technician
About The Position

This role involves same-day repairs on the lighter side of heavy-duty, both in the shop and on-site using a company service truck. Repairs include brakes, wheel seals and bearings, air leaks and airbags, A/C and electrical, tires, forced regens, and DOT and trailer inspections.
