Job Description
Diesel Fleet Maintenance Technician (Commercial Vehicles)
Picture the start of your shift: you clock in at our well-established local beverage distribution center and head to the shop where a 50-truck fleet relies on your expertise. One truck needs scheduled PM, another has a transmission code waiting to be diagnosed, and a delivery unit is in for brake work. No two days look the same—and that’s exactly how you like it.
Your Day
- Diagnose issues across a fleet of approximately 50 commercial trucks using modern diagnostic equipment.
- Handle routine and advanced work: PMs, engine and transmission service, and brake repairs.
- Collaborate with the transportation maintenance team to keep routes on schedule and equipment road-ready.

- 2nd Shift: About 2:00pm – 10:00/10:30pm (includes a $3/hour shift differential)
- 3rd Shift: About 9:30pm – 6:00am (includes a $4/hour shift differential)
Some flexibility is available. You’re guaranteed 40 hours each week, OT is offered when needed, and weekend work is generally not required.
What You Bring
- Hands-on background with diesel trucks, automotive repair, heavy equipment/yellow iron, or farm machinery.
- Your own professional-grade toolset.
- A valid New York State driver’s license and the ability to operate company vehicles (CDL A not required).
• Ability to pass drug testing, (including THC)
Compensation & Benefits
- Base pay from $24–$30 per hour, depending on experience.
- Shift differential of $3–$4 per hour with ample overtime opportunities.
- Comprehensive package: health, dental, vision, 401(k), life and disability insurance, paid vacation, PTO, $150 annual boot allowance, and ongoing training.

- Diesel Engine Systems
- Preventive Maintenance & Inspection
- Diesel & Heavy Equipment Systems
