What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Diesel Technician / Experienced Diesel Mechanic position at Pal Pro Fleet Services?
Pal Pro Fleet Services | Charleston area
Pal Pro Fleet Services is hiring an experienced, hands-on diesel technician to serve as a working foreman. You’ll turn wrenches, diagnose difficult problems, and make sure repairs meet our quality standards. You’ll manage the mechanics in the garage and report to management. This is a chance to take ownership of shop quality and workflow as our company grows.
You’ll work on heavy-duty trucks, fleet vehicles, and related equipment in our shop and at customer sites. We’re a growing Charleston-area company building a strong operation, and we’re looking for someone who takes pride in doing the job right and wants a real voice in how the work gets done.
What you’ll do
- Diagnose and repair heavy-duty diesel trucks, fleet vehicles, and equipment
- Troubleshoot engines, electrical and drivability concerns, aftertreatment, brakes, suspension, and hydraulic systems
- Use professional scan tools and OEM diagnostic software to identify problems and verify repairs
- Perform shop repairs and mobile or on-site service
- Explain findings, repair options, and recommendations clearly
- Work independently while communicating with the team about priorities and progress
- Help maintain an organized, safe shop and consistent repair quality
- Manage the mechanics in the garage and report to company management
- Perform diagnostics and quality control on trucks and machines repaired by the shop
- Help coordinate shop workflow and maintain consistent repair quality
- Share your knowledge with other technicians and help the team improve
What we’re looking for
- Strong, recent experience diagnosing and repairing heavy-duty diesel trucks
- The ability to troubleshoot complex problems and complete repairs with limited supervision
- A professional tool set suited to the work
- A valid driver’s license
- Reliability, sound judgment, and a professional approach with customers and coworkers
Experience with heavy equipment, construction machinery, hydraulics, DiagnosticLink, Cummins INSITE, or other OEM platforms is valuable. ASE or OEM certifications, a CDL, and prior lead or foreman experience are welcome, but certifications and a foreman title are not substitutes for strong hands-on ability.
