What You'll Do
As a Mobile Diesel Service Technician, you'll travel to customer locations in a company-provided service truck to diagnose and repair commercial diesel vehicles.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Diagnose and repair medium- and heavy-duty diesel trucks, buses, and related commercial fleet equipment.
- Independently troubleshoot complex mechanical and electrical problems to identify root causes and determine appropriate repairs.
- Use computerized diagnostic equipment, electronic service tools, and technical documentation to diagnose vehicle faults.
- Perform repairs involving diesel engines, electrical systems, hydraulics, brakes, suspension, and heating and air-conditioning systems.
- Complete preventive maintenance, vehicle inspections, and scheduled fleet service.
- Perform complex mechanical repairs, overhauls, and component replacements as needed.
- Respond to mobile service requests, customer breakdowns, and emergency repair situations.
- Communicate diagnostic findings, recommended repairs, estimated repair times, and parts requirements to the Service Writer.
- Identify potential warranty repairs and complete accurate service documentation.
- Record repairs, parts usage, and labor time in the fleet maintenance system.
- Maintain professional relationships with fleet customers while representing Midwest Bus Sales in the field.
What We're Looking For
Commercial Diesel Repair Experience
- Demonstrated professional experience diagnosing and repairing medium- or heavy-duty diesel trucks, buses, or comparable commercial fleet vehicles.
- Strong hands-on knowledge of diesel engines, mechanical systems, and commercial vehicle repair procedures.
- Experience performing repairs beyond routine oil changes, inspections, and preventive maintenance.
- Ability to identify mechanical failures, troubleshoot problems, and complete repairs independently.
Technical & Diagnostic Skills
- Experience using computerized diagnostic equipment and electronic troubleshooting tools.
- Ability to diagnose mechanical, electrical, and electronic vehicle problems.
- Working knowledge of commercial vehicle brake, suspension, hydraulic, electrical, and HVAC systems.
- Experience using professional mechanic tools, repair equipment, and technical service information.
- Strong problem-solving skills and attention to safety and repair quality.
Mobile Service & Customer Communication
- Comfortable working independently at customer locations with limited direct supervision.
- Ability to assess vehicle problems, determine repair needs, and manage service priorities.
- Strong customer-service and communication skills.
- Organized, dependable, and able to document repairs accurately.
- Professional approach to representing the company at customer facilities.
Previous mobile service experience is valuable, but experienced shop-based diesel technicians who are confident working independently are encouraged to apply.
What Makes This Opportunity Different?
Unlike a traditional shop-based position, this role gives you the opportunity to take ownership of your work in the field.
You'll arrive at customer locations, evaluate vehicle problems, perform diagnostics, develop repair plans, and complete quality repairs using your technical experience and judgment.
You'll have the independence of a mobile service position backed by the resources, manufacturer relationships, and service support of an established commercial vehicle dealership organization.
This position is especially well-suited for an experienced diesel technician who enjoys troubleshooting challenging mechanical problems, working independently, and building relationships with fleet customers.
