Fargo Trailer Center (a proud subsidiary of Wallwork Inc.) is on the hunt for a Trailer Technician who enjoys fixing things that other people have aggressively broken.

We pride ourselves on being dependable, hardworking, and occasionally wondering who routed those wires like that and why
.

• Mechanical puzzles created by strangers
• The smell of grease and welding sparks
• Solving problems that start with “this shouldn’t have been possible”

…then congratulations. You may have found your people.

You will heroically battle trailers that have:

• Seen things
• Been through things
• And probably shouldn’t still be on the road

Daily adventures include:

• Diagnosing trailer issues ranging from minor inconveniences to how-is-this-even-moving
• Repairing air brakes, electrical systems, suspension components, and whatever else is hanging on by hope
• Welding and fabrication when things are beyond the point of polite repair
• Hunting down loose wires, questionable repairs, and mechanical crimes committed by previous technicians
• Communicating with the parts department when you discover that the part you need no longer exists on Earth
• Documenting repairs so future technicians know what heroic acts occurred here

You’ll work independently sometimes, and with a team when multiple people are required to stare at something and say: “Well… that’s not supposed to look like that.”

To survive this position you will need:

• High school diploma or GED (or the mechanical wisdom equivalent)
• Valid driver’s license with a driving record that doesn’t make insurance companies faint
• Mechanical aptitude and a general respect for physics
• Ability to pass a background check, drug screen, and motor vehicle report
• Your own tools and toolbox (because every great mechanic knows their tools better than their family)

If you have these, we’ll assume you’ve seen some things:

• Mechanical trade school OR 2+ years of trailer technician experience
• Welding and fabrication skills
• Familiarity with:
• Air brakes
• Electrical systems
• Wheel ends & hubs
• Hydraulic systems
• Bodywork
• And identifying whatever the previous owner tried to “fix themselves”

Prepare yourself for noble tasks such as:

• Diagnosing problems and recommending repairs
• Performing repairs efficiently and accurately (because gravity and highways are unforgiving)
• Inspecting trailers for loose wires, damaged components, and mysterious engineering decisions
• Consulting with the Shop Foreman when a repair becomes a full-blown mechanical saga
• Removing parts to access the problem area, discovering three additional problems
• Documenting everything you fixed and everything that tried to fight back
• Keeping the shop clean enough that OSHA doesn’t show up with questions
• Protecting customers’ trailers from additional chaos

You will supervise exactly zero people
.

However, you may occasionally supervise a confused trailer that refuses to cooperate.

We actually offer real benefits, not just pizza:

• Health Savings Account
• Employer-Paid Life Insurance & Long-Term Disability
• 401(k) & Profit…
