· Complete repairs both in the shop and at customer locations.
· Assemble, deliver, install, and set up mobility and medical equipment.
· Educate customers and caregivers on proper equipment operation, care, and safety.

· Assist with customer quotes and approved parts orders.
· Safely operate and maintain an organized service vehicle, tools, parts, and work area.
· Treat customers, their homes, facilities, and equipment with professionalism and respect.
What We're Looking For
· Strong mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting skills, as well as a willingness to learn.
· Good communication and customer service skills.
· Dependable, organized, and able to manage time effectively.
· Strong attention to detail.
· Ability to take clear, accurate, and thorough service notes.
· Comfortable working independently as well as part of a team.
· Valid driver's license and ability to safely operate a company vehicle.
· High school diploma or equivalent.
· Previous experience in mechanical repair, electrical systems, automotive repair, equipment maintenance, field service, or mobility/medical equipment is preferred. Technical certifications or related training are a plus.
Physical Requirements
This is an active, hands-on position that requires the physical ability to safely handle heavy and bulky mobility and medical equipment throughout the workday.
Technicians must be able to lift, carry, push, pull, load, unload, maneuver, assemble, and service equipment of varying sizes and weights, independently when appropriate and with assistance or equipment when necessary. The position also requires frequent bending, kneeling, squatting, reaching, and working in various positions while servicing equipment.
Applicants should be comfortable with the physical demands associated with moving equipment such as power wheelchairs, scooters, lift chairs, hospital beds, ramps, batteries, and other durable medical equipment.

Many people come to us during a time when they or someone they love is experiencing a major change in mobility. We want their experience with us to be helpful, comfortable, and even fun. Whether we're repairing a favorite scooter, delivering a new lift chair, or helping someone find equipment that gives them more independence, we want our customers to feel like they're being taken care of by people who care.
