    Keep Critical Lifts on Schedule—Join as a Tower Crane Electrohydraulic Service Technician

    Your mission: maximize uptime and safety for tower cranes powering major construction. You’ll diagnose fast, repair right, and document thoroughly—so the next lift is as safe as the last.

    Your Impact

    • Execute scheduled inspections and preventive maintenance on electrical, hydraulic, and mechanical systems.
    • Use schematics, meters, diagnostic software, and hands-on techniques to locate and resolve faults at the source.
    • Service and replace key components—motors, braking systems, transmissions, suspensions, and air brake systems.
    • Perform precise electrical diagnostics and corrective actions on crane control systems in compliance with OEM requirements.
    • Apply fabrication skills using hand/power tools, welding equipment, and soldering to build, repair, and modify assemblies.
    • Capture accurate maintenance logs, service reports, and safety records aligned with industry best practices.
    • Coordinate with site leaders to complete maintenance and installation work without disrupting critical lifting operations.

    What You Need to Succeed

    • Hands-on experience as a heavy equipment technician or mechanic supporting construction machinery.
    • Strong mechanical foundation across cranes, excavators, forklifts, tractors, trailers, and other industrial assets.
    • Ability to read electrical diagrams and troubleshoot components and circuits confidently.
    • Proficiency in hydraulic repair; welding and alignment procedures; HVAC knowledge is a plus.
    • Physical capability to conduct heavy lifts safely with proper devices; heavy equipment operation certification preferred.
    • Familiarity with diesel engine diagnostics and repair strategies for construction equipment.
    • Sharp troubleshooting mindset and a service-oriented approach to support internal and external stakeholders.
