Turn Your Military Mechanical Skills into a Civilian Career That Matters

- Reading and interpreting hydraulic & electrical schematics
- Assembling new, demo, rental, and pre-owned equipment
- Supporting the team and upholding company values:
What Makes You a Strong Fit
- Background in small engine, turf, vehicle, generator, or equipment maintenance
- Comfortable working independently or as part of a team
- Strong diagnostic and troubleshooting mindset
- Ability to read technical manuals and schematics
- Experience with precision measuring tools (calipers, feeler gauges, dial indicators)
Experience That Translates Well
- Military mechanics, motor transport, construction equipment, aviation support, or shipboard maintenance
- 5 years mechanical or related hands-on experience
- Certifications or OEM training a plus—but not required
Work Environment & Safety
