Field Diesel & Trailer Systems Technician

What a Day Looks Like You start your morning by checking your mobile service truck, confirming your parts inventory, and reviewing the day’s work orders. Your first stop is a commercial customer site, where you’ll perform preventive maintenance on material handling equipment, inspect trailer brake systems, and run electrical and mechanical diagnostics on diesel-powered assets. Throughout the day, you’ll operate power and hand tools, use diagnostic equipment, and, when needed, strike an arc or light a cutting torch for basic welding and torch work. You’ll document parts usage, resolve discrepancies, and update maintenance leadership if something can’t be reconciled. Between calls, you keep your work area and any on-site warehouse spaces tidy and safe. Junior teammates may call for advice—your mentorship helps Vehicle Technicians B and C sharpen their skills. You wrap up by confirming your next day’s schedule and securing your box tools in the service bed.
