  • Order parts, manage inventory, and track repair costs to keep operations efficient and budget‑conscious.
  • Ensure safety compliance and uphold the highest standards in every repair and procedure.
  • Communicate directly with drivers, dispatch, and leadership

  • Train and mentor new mechanics
    , helping develop the next generation of diesel pros.
What You Bring:
  • 5+ years of diesel mechanic experience, with at least 1–2 years in a leadership or supervisory role.

  • Comfortable with shop software, repair tracking tools, and basic computer tasks.
  • DOT, OSHA, and safety compliance knowledge.
  • A team‑focused, can‑do attitude—you motivate others and lead by example.
  • Ability to multitask, prioritize repairs, and stay cool under pressure.
What’s in It for You:
  • Competitive pay + bonus opportunities based on performance.
    • Work‑life balance: Monday – Friday day shift
  • Full benefits package including medical, dental, vision, company‑paid life & disability insurance, plus voluntary coverages.
  • 120 hours of PTO available from Day One.
  • 401(k) plan to invest in your future.
