Job Description

Off-Highway Technician (Service Truck / High-Performance Role)

Location: Sioux Falls, SD
Company: Interstate Power Systems

This Role Is for Experienced Technicians Only

If you’ve spent years in a shop but never owned a service truck, diagnosis, or customer relationship —this likely isn’t the role.

We are looking for a proven off-highway technician with service truck experience who can operate independently and handle a wide range of equipment in the field.

You’ll work on everything from:

• Generators & power systems
• Heavy construction equipment (Liebherr, etc.)
• Air compressors (Atlas Copco and similar)
• Man lifts, scrap equipment, and material handlers
• Industrial engines (Deutz, Volvo Penta, Perkins)

This is a no two-days-are-the-same role for a technician who thrives on problem-solving and variety.

What You’ll Be Responsible For:

Field Diagnostics & Repairs

• Diagnose and repair mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic systems
• Respond to breakdowns and get customers back up and running
• Perform repairs accurately and efficiently with minimal supervision

Service Truck Ownership

Work autonomously from a fully reliable service truck .

• Represent the company professionally in the field

Preventative Maintenance & Inspections

• Perform PMs, inspections, and system checks
• Identify issues early and recommend corrective actions
• Complete detailed, accurate service documentation

Wide Equipment Scope

• Work across generators, compressors, construction equipment, and industrial machinery
• Support customers across construction, industrial, and power generation sectors

Quality & Safety

• Follow all safety protocols and company standards
• Take pride in doing the job right the first time
• Maintain a clean, organized, and professional work environment

What Winning Looks Like

• You can diagnose and repair issues without hand-holding
• You are comfortable working across multiple equipment platforms
• You manage your time, truck, and territory effectively
• Customers trust you and request you back

Requirements (Non-Negotiable)

• Minimum 5+ years of experience operating in a service truck
• Proven experience with off-highway equipment, generators, or heavy equipment
• Strong mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic troubleshooting ability
• Ability to work independently in the field
• Valid CDL (required)

What You Get

• Competitive hourly pay based on experience and capability
• Overtime opportunities
• Company service truck
• Full benefits package (health, dental, vision, 401k)
• Ongoing training and certifications
• Opportunity to work on a wide variety of equipment—not just one system

Why Interstate

You’ll be part of a team that supports everything from heavy construction equipment to critical power systems , backed by a company known for Pride in Service and deep field expertise.

Bottom Line

If you want to stay in a shop and avoid field work—this, isn’t it.

If you want to run your own truck, tackle real-world problems, and work on a wide range of equipment, this is where you belong.
