Inside the Role

An Apprentice at Detroit Diesel Remanufacturing LLC will participate in a comprehensive training program that combines hands‑on experience with formal education in either a mechanical or electrical pathway.

Apprentices begin in an electromechanical pathway and may be provided additional opportunities to expand experience as they grow.
