Tracked Carrier & Drilling Rig Diesel Technician
Imagine starting your day with a walk-around of a track-mounted drilling rig. You note a sluggish boom and a warning light, pull up the hydraulic and electrical diagrams, and start methodically hunting down the root cause. By lunchtime, you’ve verified pump pressures, repaired a chafed harness, and brought the machine back to full strength. In the afternoon, you move to a Prinoth-style carrier for a scheduled service, then consult with our parts and operations teams to line up components for tomorrow’s rebuild. This is a hands-on shop—not a dealership assembly line—where you own the repair from first assessment to clean handoff.
What you’ll work on
- Track-mounted drilling rigs and related support equipment
- Tracked carriers similar to Morooka, Terramac, and Prinoth, plus remote track systems
- Diesel powerplants, hydraulic circuits (cylinders, pumps, valves, hoses), and electrical systems
- Undercarriages and track components, including inspections, rebuilds, and upgrades
How you’ll contribute
- Diagnose mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical faults using gauges, meters, and sharp troubleshooting logic
- Perform preventive maintenance, inspections, and component replacements to extend machine life
- Interpret hydraulic and electrical schematics to trace issues quickly and accurately
- Coordinate with parts and operations to stage jobs and finish work efficiently
- Take complete ownership of each repair—from first look to final test
