Description

Heavy-Duty Fleet Diesel Service Technician

Picture your first hour on the floor: you roll into a clean, well-equipped bay at NFI, fire up JPRO, and isolate an electrical fault on a dedicated tractor. By mid-morning, you’ve wrapped a PM on a trailer, documented a DOT inspection to FMCSA standards, and teamed up with a fellow tech to chase down a CAN-bus issue with OEM diagnostic software and a multimeter. It’s hands-on, it’s precise—and it keeps our customers’ freight moving.
