  • Monitor equipment and vehicles for safe and reliable operation.
  • Perform basic equipment servicing and document maintenance activities.
  • Report major mechanical issues for further repair.
  • Reload and secure equipment following field assignments.
  • Restock parts, supplies, and components.
  • Maintain clean and organized vehicles, tools, equipment, and work areas.
  • Assist other teams or departments as needed.
  • Follow all safety policies and procedures.

    • Requirements

  • Valid Class A CDL with a good driving record.
  • Experience in construction, heavy equipment operation, or physically demanding field work.
  • Ability to safely operate heavy equipment.
  • Comfortable performing hands-on work in changing field conditions.
  • Able to complete required qualification testing, training, and safety programs.
  • Must be available for 24/7 emergency response, including weekends and holidays.

  • Typical workweeks average 60+ hours, with some weeks reaching approximately 70 hours.
  • Hours outside Monday–Friday, 7:00 AM–4:00 PM are paid at 1.5x overtime.
  • Per diem, hotel expenses for required travel, and layover pay may be available when applicable.
  • Emergency assignments may require local or out-of-area travel.
