Now Hiring: Experienced Diesel Mechanic
East St. Louis, IL – Rose Lake Rail Terminal
Take your skills to a place where they truly matter. At Pacific Rail Services (PRS), we keep one of the busiest rail terminals in the region moving every single day, and we need a top-tier diesel mechanic who’s ready to own the job.
What We Offer You:
- Real money: $70,000 – $90,000 per year ($35 – $39/hour based on experience) with regular overtime available.
- Full benefits that start fast: health, dental, vision, 401(k) with match, paid time off after just 90 days, and annual raises.
- Predictable day shift: Monday – Friday with occasional weekend call-ins.
- Union strength: Proud member of District 9.
- Room to grow: ongoing training, new challenges, and clear paths forward in a rock-solid industry.
The Work You’ll Do: (and actually enjoy)
- Keep heavy forklifts, hostlers, and terminal vehicles in top shape
- Tackle air, electrical, hydraulic, and diesel systems with confidence
- Weld, fabricate, and problem-solve on the spot
- Perform preventative maintenance that prevents downtime and keeps the terminal flowing
- Jump in wherever the team needs you—every day is different
What You Bring:
- At least 2 years of real diesel or heavy equipment experience
- Your own hand tools (we give you a generous yearly tool allowance)
- Solid understanding of air brakes, electrical, hydraulics, and diesel engines
- Valid driver’s license and a clean-enough record to pass a standard 7-year background check and drug screen
- No diploma needed—your work history and ability do the talking
The Lifestyle:
You’ll work outdoors, stay active, and see the direct results of your hands every shift. This is a place where your experience is respected, your opinion matters, and your paycheck reflects the critical role you play.
Ready to Join a Winning Crew?
Apply today and step into a career that moves freight, builds skills, and rewards hard work. Direct hire by PRS—no temp agencies, no railroad politics—just a solid job with a solid company.
You will be employed directly by PRS and will not be considered an employee of the Railroad.We’re excited to put your talent to work. Let’s get rolling.
