If you’re a skilled mechanic, fair leader, and practical problem-solver who likes a mix of shop work, supervision, and responsibility, we’d like to hear from you.

You assign daily mechanic work orders, inspect and log equipment maintenance, review mechanic timecards, coordinate parts needs, and help determine when repairs need manager approval.
