If you are an elite heavy equipment technician who thrives on technical independence but wants the backing of a stable, deeply loyal corporate family, this remote regional career track is built for you. Our client is a premier, privately held manufacturing and distribution leader dominating the heavy industrial equipment and high-performance machinery sectors. They operate a fiercely collaborative, people-first culture where over a quarter of the workforce boasts more than ten years of tenure, and "boomerang" employees regularly return after realizing other shops don't compare.
In this high-visibility role, you won't just turn wrenches on repetitive shop lines; you will serve as the premier technical subject matter expert and the ultimate "Voice of the Customer" across the East Coast territory. From troubleshooting complex multi-ton hydraulic machinery and advanced auxiliary work tools to leading interactive training classrooms of up to 30 dealer technicians, your expertise is directly linked to the firm’s engineering advancements. Backed by extensive internal R&D, a clean modern infrastructure, and robust benefits like profit sharing and educational reimbursement, this position treats you like a foundational business partner, not a number.
What You Will Be Doing
- Serving as the Lead Technical Point Person and field liaison across the East Coast, managing high-value equipment installations and onsite system startups
- Utilizing electrical/hydraulic schematics, multi-meters, pressure gauges, and flow meters to independently diagnose complex operational failures on sophisticated mobile machinery, specialized valving, and high-pressure subsystems
- Performing critical, heavy-duty mechanical repairs, high-pressure fluid power servicing, and light field structural welding directly on-site at active customer operational locations and industrial job sites
- Providing clear, empathetic technical support over the phone, text, and email, partnering closely with internal engineering and inside parts teams to resolve critical diagnostic roadblocks
- Developing and executing comprehensive classroom and hands-on maintenance training programs for up to 30 dealer technicians and end-user operators
- Compiling meticulous service database documentation, tracking equipment performance, and delivering weekly trip reports directly to management to fuel continuous engineering improvements
- Managing personal travel logistics (flights, lodging, rentals) and maintaining highly organized weekly expense reports on a corporate-issued credit card
What We Are Looking For
- Fluid Power Expertise: 5 or more years of proven, hands-on field experience diagnosing, maintaining, and rebuilding complex hydraulic systems and mobile heavy equipment (excavators, material handlers, large specialty systems)
- Educational Foundation: An Associate’s Degree in Diesel Technology/Fluid Power, an official Hydraulic Certification, or 5 years of verified advanced mechanical field experience in lieu of a degree
- Diagnostic Precision: Complete mastery in interpreting high-level hydraulic/electrical blueprints and utilizing precision testing tools under rigorous field conditions
- Road Warrior Stamina: Absolute readiness and physical capability to handle an 80% travel workflow across heavy industrial environments, uneven terrain, and varied outdoor worksites in all weather conditions
- Communication & Presence: Exceptional interpersonal skills with the professional confidence to train others, navigate dealer relationships, and speak clearly on technical hydraulic principles (Spanish proficiency is a strong asset)
- Location Constraints: Must reside in a centralized East Coast location within a 2-hour drive of a major airport hub to support rapid dispatching; must be a US Citizen or Green Card holder
