Apply for this role

Most contractors rent their specialty equipment. We own ours — 105′ digger derricks and bucket trucks, a pressure digger, track units, a directional bore machine, a vacuum excavator — and it’s maintained by the people who depend on it. That’s you.

The work runs both ways: scheduled maintenance and real repairs in the yard, and the call at an odd hour when a rig goes down on a job three states from home and a crew is standing around waiting on you.

What you'll do

  • Maintain and repair the fleet: digger derricks, bucket trucks, pressure diggers, track units, the directional bore machine, and the vacuum excavator
  • Perform scheduled preventive maintenance and keep service records current
  • Diagnose and repair diesel engines, hydraulics, and truck-mounted equipment
  • Handle field service calls to get a down rig running and a crew back to work
  • Keep aerial equipment inspected and compliant so it’s safe to put a lineman in the bucket

What we're looking for

  • Hands-on experience maintaining heavy trucks and equipment
  • A valid CDL (commercial driver’s license)
  • Willingness to travel for field service across our five-state area
  • Able to pass a pre-employment drug screening

Pay and benefits

$23–$44 per hour

  • Health insurance
  • Life insurance
  • Short-term and long-term disability
  • 401(k)
  • Paid time off

Travel is required — our work spans five states. Karian Peterson pays for lodging, and per diem is offered on top of it.

How hiring works

  1. Send us your application through the online form.
  2. We call you to set up an interview.
  3. If you’re hired, you complete a drug screening and a five-hour paid orientation before your first day on a crew.
