If you’re an experienced Diesel Mechanic who takes pride in keeping mission‑critical vehicles running at their best, this is an opportunity to do work that truly matters. Join a team that supports emergency responders across the Pacific Northwest — ensuring the vehicles they rely on are safe, reliable, and ready for anything.

This role is ideal for a mechanic who thrives on variety, values independence, and wants to work with high‑quality equipment and purpose‑built vehicles used in real emergency response environments.

Drawing from the organization’s mission and values, you’ll be joining a team that:

• Supports frontline emergency responders with high‑performance vehicles and equipment
• Believes in reliability, craftsmanship, and service excellence
• Serves a wide range of communities — rural, urban, volunteer, and professional
• Operates with a strong sense of purpose: keeping people safe by keeping their equipment ready

You’re not just turning wrenches — you’re helping ensure emergency crews can respond when it matters most.

You’ll take the lead on diagnostics, repairs, and maintenance for diesel trucks and specialized emergency vehicles. Your work will include:

• Performing inspections, troubleshooting, and repairs on diesel engines, electrical systems, hydraulics, and brake systems
• Using diagnostic tools and interpreting schematics to identify and resolve issues efficiently
• Completing routine maintenance such as fluid changes, filter replacements, and component checks
• Repairing or replacing malfunctioning parts to manufacturer standards
• Supporting field service operations, including mobile repairs and pump testing at fire stations across Oregon and Washington
• Traveling occasionally for overnight assignments — with all expenses covered
• Maintaining accurate service records, documentation, and parts usage
• Collaborating with a team that values communication, safety, and high-quality workmanship

• 5+ years of mechanical experience (diesel strongly preferred)
• Strong diagnostic and problem‑solving abilities
• Proficiency with diagnostic equipment, hand tools, and power tools
• Knowledge of diesel engines, hydraulics, electrical systems, and brake systems
• Ability to read and interpret technical manuals and schematics
• Clear written and verbal communication skills
• Willingness to travel overnight as needed

• ASE Certifications
• EV Certifications
• Strong experience with electrical systems
• Experience working on fire trucks or emergency vehicles
• Excellent organization and time‑management skills
• Strong teamwork and communication abilities
• Valid driver’s license with a clean driving record
• Ability to provide your own hand tools and toolbox

• $25–$45+ per hour , depending on experience
• Travel expenses fully covered
• Work with high‑quality, industry‑leading equipment
• Opportunities to grow your technical expertise in emergency vehicle systems
• A mission‑driven environment where your work has real impact

This role is perfect for a seasoned mechanic who wants more than a standard shop job — someone who wants to support emergency responders, work with specialized equipment, and be part of a team that values craftsmanship, reliability, and service.

If that sounds like you, we’d love to connect.
