Coordinate with the Parts Department and other technicians to keep jobs on track. Document installations, diagnoses, repairs, and recommendations clearly and accurately. Communicate directly with customers about installation needs, repair status, and timelines. What You Bring To The Team High school diploma or GED required. 2-3 years of experience in truck equipment installation/upfitting, mechanical/electrical repair, trailer service, agriculture equipment, heavy equipment, automotive or a related field. Hands-on experience with electrical troubleshooting, wiring, PTO systems, and hydraulic systems strongly preferred. Ability to read and understand wiring diagrams, service manuals, schematics, and technical instructions. Welding, fabrication, cutting, blueprint reading, or technical/vocational training is a plus. Strong attention to detail, and pride in quality workmanship. Clear communication skills and a professional, customer-focused approach. Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record required.
