• 5+ years of experience as a Forklift Technician, Field Service Technician, Diesel Mechanic, Heavy Equipment Technician, Equipment Mechanic, Industrial Maintenance Technician, Maintenance Mechanic, or similar technician role
• Strong troubleshooting and diagnostic skills

• OEM dealership experience
• ASE certifications

This is a full-time field service role supporting customers throughout an assigned service territory. You will receive a company-provided take-home service van, fuel card, tablet, and the tools/support needed to manage service calls efficiently. Travel time is paid, and your work will directly support customers who rely on WMH to keep their operations moving.

At WMH Solutions, strong technicians have room to grow. We invest in technical training, OEM development, leadership growth, and long-term career progression. Whether your goal is becoming a Master Technician, Service Leader, Product Support Specialist, Service Manager, Branch Leader, or another leadership role, we want to help you build that future.
