- Order parts for the shop and ensure the right components are on hand.
- Partner with the Shop Service Manager on leadership activities and continuous improvement initiatives.
- Collaborate with teammates to streamline processes and enhance service delivery.
- Communicate clearly with customers about findings, repair options, and recommendations.
- Stay current with evolving diesel technologies and industry best practices.
- High school diploma or equivalent; technical training in diesel mechanics preferred.
- 3+ years of experience as a Diesel Technician or in a closely related role.
- Deep understanding of diesel engine components, systems, and related technologies.
- Proficiency with diagnostic tools, software, and standard testing equipment.
- Strong problem-solving ability and a sharp attention to detail.
