What are the responsibilities and job description for the Field Diesel Powertrain Service Specialist position at Transwest Mobile Truck & Trailer?
Picture your day: you roll out in Las Vegas, NV, geared up to keep contractors, municipalities, and fleet operators on the move. Your first stop is a job site where a loader won’t start—you methodically diagnose diesel, hydraulic, and electrical systems, consult service manuals, connect diagnostic tools, and get it back online. In the afternoon, you complete scheduled maintenance on a medium-duty truck, update service notes, communicate clearly with the customer, and head to the next call. Every day you’ll solve problems in the field and in the shop—safely, efficiently, and with pride.
