We’re looking for Heavy Equipment Mechanics / Technicians for both shop or field service work in Brighton. All experience levels are welcome. If your background is doing PMs, oil changes and basic repairs, there’s room to grow. If you’re already diagnosing electrical and hydraulic issues and tearing into engines, powertrain and major components, they have plenty of work for you too.

What Kind of Tech Fits Here?

Shop or Field

• There are opportunities for both shop or field technicians.

• Whether you’re already diagnosing electrical and hydraulic problems or you’re a solid mechanic ready to step into heavy equipment, if you like fixing things and want a place where your skills can grow, let’s talk.
