Keeping equipment running, reducing downtime, solving difficult problems, and getting operations back to work all contribute to the success of a company you help own. We also believe good mechanics should have somewhere to grow. AIS offers a defined mechanic career path with opportunities to advance from preventive maintenance and diagnostics into CDL/diesel, heavy-equipment, and advanced/master mechanic work as skills and capabilities develop, and need is available. Our culture is built around four core values: Honesty & Integrity | Team Player | Urgency | We Own It! And above everything else: We work safely or not at all. If you take pride in figuring out difficult problems, show up for your team, and believe in taking ownership of your work, AIS may be the place to build your career.
