Resident Field Mechanic – Heavy Equipment (Dallas Area)

$35–$45/hr + Service Truck + Full Benefits

If you’d rather be out fixing big iron than stuck in a shop all day, keep reading.

We’re hiring a resident field mechanic based in the Dallas area to work on some seriously heavy-duty industrial equipment — think massive wood grinders and chippers that don’t quit. This isn’t light-duty wrenching. It’s real work, with real machines, out in the field.

What the job looks like

You’ll be out on job sites handling diagnostics, repairs, and maintenance on large industrial equipment
Expect a mix of hydraulics, electrical, and pneumatics (not much engine teardown work)
Engines are primarily Caterpillar — solid, reliable, and familiar if you’ve been around heavy gear
Monday–Friday role, but there’s regular travel (some overnight, occasional international — passport helps)
You’ll start with 2 weeks of paid training in Minnesota, then ride along with a seasoned tech until you’re up to speed

What you’re working with

Fully outfitted service truck
A tight team — about 120 employees total, no corporate nonsense
Equipment that’s built in-house, so you’re not guessing or chasing parts

What you’ll get

$35–$45/hr depending on experience
Employee-owned company (ESOP) — you’ve got a stake in the game
401k + solid benefits
Steady work, good people, and machines that actually challenge you

What they’re looking for

Strong background in heavy equipment, ag, diesel, or similar
Comfortable with hydraulics and electrical troubleshooting
Someone who doesn’t mind travel and working independently
CDL B is a big plus (or willingness to get it)
Able to handle field work — this isn’t a clean shop environment

Bottom line

If you’re the kind of mechanic who likes solving problems in the field, working on big equipment, and not answering to a clipboard all day — this is a solid gig.
