Hermiston Diesel Technician

Diesel Technician Position

Looking for a shop where the equipment's solid, the bays are organized, and the crew has your back? Read on.

Northwest Beef Express is hiring an experienced diesel tech to join our growing crew at the Hermiston shop. We've got 6 techs on the bench and the workload to add another business is good, the rigs keep rolling, and we need another solid hand to help keep them that way.

We run a clean, well-organized, in-house fleet shop with well-maintained trucks and trailers, and we've got a dedicated tire tech on staff so our diesel techs can stay focused on real wrench work.

We're a small, family-owned ag trucking operation, and we treat our people that way. This isn't a corporate grind it's a place where your work gets noticed, your input matters, and the person approving your paycheck knows your name.
