Heavy Equipment Diesel Mechanic
$30 - $40 per hourYirsa Farms
Job Description
Job Description
This is a dual role, and both halves matter year-round. When wrenches need turning, you're in the shop. When grain needs moving — harvest, post-harvest, or any point in between — you're behind the wheel of a semi. You shift between them based on what the operation needs.
You're not a support role. You're the person responsible for keeping the fleet alive. If something breaks at a bad time, it's on you to have seen it coming. You run the shop like it's yours — because functionally, it is.
What You'll Be Doing
- Maintain and repair the full fleet — tractors, combines, sprayers, air seeders, grain carts, drills, and trucks
- Diagnose and fix mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical issues
- Build and own the preventive maintenance schedule — you set it, you keep it
- Make the call on parts, vendors, and repair vs. replace
- Keep the shop organized — parts inventory, tooling, vendor contacts, warranty tracking
- Drive semi whenever grain needs to move, not just during harvest
- Track maintenance records and document decisions
What We're Looking For
- Solid diesel mechanic background — engines, hydraulics, and electrical
- Experience with large farm equipment (John Deere, Case IH, or similar)
- CDL license, or willing to get one
- Self-sufficient — you know what needs doing without someone making you a list
- Someone who takes it personally when a machine goes down at the wrong time
- Comfortable living and working in a remote rural area
What We Offer
- $30-$40 per hour depending on experience
- Housing included - We help you relocate
- Year-round, stable work
- A straightforward family operation that respects your skills and trusts your judgment
Heavy Equipment Mechanic Duties and Responsibilities
- Perform electrical, hydraulic, and mechanical repairs as well as preventative maintenance
- Troubleshoot issues with diesel engines
- Determine what parts and tools are necessary to make repairs
- Complete shop paperwork
- Maintain a clean and safe work area
Heavy Equipment Mechanic Requirements and Qualifications
- High school diploma or GED certificate
- Post-secondary certificate or degree in engineering OR training as a mechanic (a plus)
- 5 years of experience with diesel/heavy equipment repair
- Welding experience (a plus)
- Manual dexterity
- Valid driver's license and a clean driving record
