Field Diesel Mechanic

Mid Shift Field Service Diesel Mechanic
Our leading Heavy Equipment rental provider client in Louisville KY is hiring - pay up to $42/hr

This is a field-based role built for a mechanic who takes pride in their diagnostic ability, works well independently, and wants to be part of a company where skilled trades are genuinely valued. If you're tired of being treated like a number and want a role where your technical depth actually gets recognized, this one is worth a look.

What You'll Be Doing

You'll be dispatched to customer job sites to perform maintenance and repairs on a wide range of heavy equipment. This isn't shop-only work. You'll own your mobile service unit, manage your work orders, and handle jobs from start to finish with a high level of independence. Specific responsibilities include:

• Diagnosing and repairing mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and diesel systems across a variety of equipment types
• Completing accurate daily work orders and electronic service documentation
• Representing the company professionally at every customer site
• Supporting equipment demonstrations and upsell conversations with customers when relevant
• Assisting with equipment and parts logistics as needed

What the Right Candidate Brings

• 3 to 5 years of hands-on experience repairing and maintaining heavy or construction equipment
• Strong mechanical foundation with solid knowledge of diesel engines and related systems
• Ability to diagnose complex issues with minimal supervision
• Your own tools
• Valid driver's license with a clean record
• High school diploma or equivalent
• Strong communication skills and a customer-first attitude
• Ability to lift up to 45 lbs regularly

Why This Role Stands Out

This client has a reputation for investing in their service teams. There's a defined path from field technician into senior technical and leadership roles for those who want it. You won't be stuck. The company is stable, the equipment exposure is broad, and the team culture is one people tend to stay in.
