  • Modern Facilities & Equipment: Work in a well-equipped, safety-first shop servicing modern, commercial fleet vehicles.

  • Career Growth: Ongoing training, certification support, and pathways to leadership roles within a continent-wide company.

What You'll Do
  • Keep the Fleet Road-Ready: Perform routine preventive maintenance, diagnostics, and complex repairs on modern heavy-duty diesel trucks (Roll-off, Front-load, Rear-load).

  • Master the Mechanics: Inspect and repair diesel engines, hydraulic systems, air brakes, electrical systems, suspensions, and transmissions.

  • Solve Complex Problems: Utilize diagnostic software and troubleshooting expertise to identify and fix issues fast and effectively.

  • Safety & Quality Standards: Ensure every vehicle leaving the shop meets or exceeds GFL and DOT safety regulations.

  • Team Up: Work closely with drivers, shop supervisors, and operations to minimize downtime and keep routes running smoothly.

What We're Looking For
  • Experience: 2+ years of hands-on experience in heavy-duty diesel truck repair or completion of a vocational/diesel technology program.

  • Technical Skills: Strong proficiency with hydraulic systems, air brake systems, electrical diagnostics, and heavy equipment systems.

  • Tool Set: Your own basic set of mechanics tools (specialized tools provided by GFL).

  • CDL / License: Valid driver's license (Commercial Driver's License Class A or B is a major plus!).

  • Great Work Ethic: A team-first attitude, attention to detail, and a commitment to safety every single day.

Location & Schedule
  • Primary Location: Durham, NC (Full-Time Day & Evening Shifts Available)
