Construction Equipment Technician

Save Job

We support employers in the heavy equipment and construction sectors who need experienced mechanics to keep their fleets operating safely and efficiently. This role focuses on diagnostics, field service, and repair work on major heavy equipment brands. It is ideal for a technician with strong experience, solid troubleshooting skills, and the ability to work independently on customer sites.

This position involves more field work than a typical shop mechanic role. You’ll handle service truck calls, perform on-site troubleshooting, and support the branch with in-shop repairs when needed. This is not an entry-level role — the employer is looking for a seasoned technician who can take the lead on complex issues.

What You’ll Do

Diagnose equipment malfunctions using meters, diagnostic tools, and field-testing methods

Perform repairs on engines, hydraulics, electrical systems, and machine control systems

Conduct scheduled maintenance and major service intervals on heavy equipment

Handle field service calls to return equipment to operation or assist in transporting units back to the shop

Repair and maintain components such as enclosures, dashboards, wiring, lighting systems, and control panels

Prepare equipment for rental readiness, ensuring machines meet safety and performance standards

Move equipment in and out of the yard/shop using forklifts or operating the units directly

Maintain accurate repair records, work orders, and inspection documentation

Keep tools, service truck, and work areas clean, organized, and compliant with safety procedures

Communicate effectively with the branch team and customers while on job sites

What We’re Looking For

At least

6 years of hands‑on heavy equipment experience

(rental industry experience is a plus but not required)

Strong knowledge of John Deere, Komatsu, Caterpillar, Bobcat, or similar construction equipment

JLG/Genie certification preferred but not required

Ability to troubleshoot diesel engines, hydraulics, electrical systems, and basic electronics

Comfortable working independently in the field and interacting with customers professionally

Strong mechanical aptitude with the ability to learn increasingly complex systems

Able to follow all applicable safety rules, laws, and procedures

Accurate record keeping in both written work orders and digital systems

High school diploma or equivalent
