Mobile Diesel Technician (Founding New Orleans Tech)

Help Us Launch a New Market!

Transwest Mobile Truck Repair is expanding into Louisiana, and this role is one of our key first hires in the market. This technician will operate with a high level of independence and trust, represent the company directly with customers, and help establish the standard for service quality, professionalism, and reliability in the region.

This is not a role for someone who needs constant oversight. We are looking for a true all-around professional; a senior mobile diesel technician who takes pride in their work, communicates clearly with customers, and understands what it means to be the face of a growing operation.

If you enjoy autonomy, ownership, and being relied upon to “do it right the first time,” this role was built for you.

What You’ll Do

• Serve as the primary mobile diesel technician supporting customers throughout the New Orleans area
• Perform advanced diagnostics, maintenance, and repairs on heavy-duty diesel equipment, including engines, hydraulics, electrical systems, brakes, suspension, and drivetrains
• Work independently in the field, managing your daily workload, service priorities, and customer interactions
• Diagnose complex mechanical issues using scan tools, service manuals, and hands-on expertise
• Communicate directly with fleet managers and customers, providing clear explanations, repair recommendations, and professional service updates
• Complete scheduled and unscheduled repairs safely, efficiently, and with minimal supervision
• Maintain accurate service documentation, work orders, and inspection records
• Operate cranes and specialized equipment as needed to complete repairs
• Help establish best practices and service standards as the Baton Rouge operation grows
• Act as a trusted representative of Transwest Mobile in a new market

What You Bring

• High school diploma or GED
• 5+ years of hands-on diesel technician experience, preferably in mobile or field service environments
• Strong diagnostic capability across diesel engines, hydraulics, electrical systems, and drivetrain components
• Proven ability to work independently and make sound decisions in the field
• Professional, customer-focused communication skills
• High level of integrity, reliability, and personal accountability
• Ability to supply your own basic hand tools appropriate for the role
• Valid driver’s license and clean driving record (company vehicle provided)
• Ability to pass background screening
• Physically able to lift 50+ lbs and work in outdoor and shop environments

Preferred Qualifications

• ASE certifications or OEM training (Cummins, Detroit, Freightliner, etc.)
• Prior experience serving as a lead tech, senior tech, or primary field technician
• Experience building or maintaining long-term customer relationships
• Strong organizational skills and comfort managing service flow independently
• Experience representing a company directly with fleet managers or jobsite leadership

Why Transwest Mobile

• Foundational Role: Be the first technician in a new market and help shape how we operate locally
• Autonomy & Trust: High level of independence with leadership support when needed
• Growth Opportunity: Clear path to expanded responsibility as the Baton Rouge operation grows
• Strong Support: Backed by an established organization with over 25 years of mobile service expertise

Benefits Include:
