WMH

Senior Forklift Technician / Heavy Equipment Mechanic (Diesel & Electrical)

Field Service | Company Van | Paid Travel | Growth Path

At WMH Solutions, we're hiring a Senior Forklift Technician to lead advanced diagnostics, complex repairs, and field service excellence across material handling and heavy equipment fleets. This is a senior-level role for technicians who want more autonomy, influence, and long-term career growth not just another wrench-turning job.

Role Snapshot

  • Experience: 5+ years (forklifts, heavy equipment, diesel, or industrial)
  • Focus: Electrical diagnostics, hydraulics, advanced troubleshooting
  • Schedule: Full-time, field-based
  • Territory: Local service area
  • Vehicle: Company van (take home)

Equipment

  • Company van, tablet, fuel card
  • Travel Time: 100% paid

What You'll Do

  • Diagnose and repair forklifts & material handling equipment
  • Troubleshoot electrical systems, wiring, sensors, controllers & motors
  • Perform hydraulic repairs (hoses, pumps, valves, cylinders)
  • Conduct & complete preventative maintenance and safety inspections
  • Serve as a technical leader and mentor to junior technicians
  • Communicate directly with customers on repairs and recommendations

This Role Is Ideal If You:

  • Are trusted with the hardest diagnostics
  • Enjoy working independently in the field
  • Want to mentor and raise the bar for other techs
  • Are looking for long-term stability + advancement

This role is NOT entry-level.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years as a forklift technician, diesel mechanic, or heavy equipment technician
  • Strong electrical & hydraulic troubleshooting skills

  • Valid driver's license
  • ASE certification preferred (not required)

  • Leadership development for technicians
  • 401(k) match up to 9% + profit sharing
  • Tool allowance, company-paid uniforms & PPE, cell phone stipend
  • Medical, dental, vision, life & AD&D insurance
  • Paid PTO & holidays
