Job Description

Join Crane Technologies, a leading crane service and manufacturing company based in Rochester Hills, Michigan. As a lead crane service technician, you will play a crucial role in ensuring the smooth operation and maintenance of our customer's cranes. We pride ourselves on our commitment to excellence and safety, and you will be an integral part of our dedicated team.

In this lead technician role, you will be responsible for inspecting, repairing, and conducting preventative maintenance on cranes to ensure optimal performance. You will troubleshoot and diagnose mechanical and electrical issues, ensuring timely resolution to minimize downtime. Regularly conducting tests and inspections, you will help our customers to have cranes that meet safety regulations and industry standards.

We are looking for an experienced technician with a solid knowledge of overhead crane and hoist systems. We offer guaranteed 40 hours work weeks, with regular opportunities for overtime. We also offer the opportunity, for skilled and reliable technicians, to travel to our many military customer job sites, which includes lots of overtime and often includes elevated Federal job site wage scale (typically known as Davis Bacon or prevailing wage).

We have a team attitude here at Crane Technologies. Our team works together and supports each other. Working together, with the knowledge and experience we have here, there is no crane problem we cannot fix and overcome. We are a long-standing local company that cares about our people.
