Build a real career in diesel mechanics — starting now.Diesel Technician — Growth Role
Chicopee, MA | $18–$22/hour, based on experience | Full-Time
NETC Fleet Services is growing our Chicopee team, and we're looking for someone mechanically sharp and ready to develop into a skilled diesel technician. You'll start with the fundamentals — preventive maintenance, brake work, and core repairs — while we invest real training time to get you diagnosing engine issues and handling heavy maintenance like a seasoned pro.
This is a role built for someone who wants to learn, grow, and take on more as their skills develop.
What You'll Be Doing From Day One
- Performing preventive maintenance (PMs) across our light, medium, and heavy-duty fleet vehicles
- Diagnosing and replacing brake components, start to finish
- Handling core repairs — fluids, filters, belts, hoses, tires, and general upkeep
- Working alongside senior technicians on more advanced repairs, learning hands-on as you go
- Keeping accurate service and inspection records
- Following DOT compliance and shop safety protocols
- Keeping your workspace organized and ready to go
What We'll Teach You As You Grow
- Full diagnostic procedures on diesel engines and complex fleet systems
- Heavy maintenance and major repair work
- The hands-on skills and judgment that separate a good tech from a great one
What You Bring
- Basic mechanical experience — diesel, automotive, or related trade background
- A genuine willingness to learn and take direction from senior techs
- A valid driver's license (CDL is a plus, not required)
- Physical readiness for shop work, including lifting and standing for extended periods
- Reliability, punctuality, and a strong work ethic — we can teach skills, we can't teach showing up
