  • Hydraulic system experience (preferred but not required)

  • Ability to work in all weather conditions.

  • Ability to lift at least 50lbs repeatedly.

What You’ll Get From Us

We offer a competitive compensation package plus benefits that help you grow your career and support your life outside of work:

  • Competitive Pay: $30–$35/hr DOE
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance
  • Life Insurance + Short- and Long-Term Disability
  • Employee Assistance Program (mental health support)
