  • Communicate with OTC Fleet Services management regarding repairs, vehicle status, and additional service needs
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and properly stocked mobile service vehicle
  • Maintain a professional presence while working at customer facilities
  • Follow company procedures and established safety standards


What We're Looking For

We're looking for an experienced, dependable technician who can be trusted to work independently in the field and represent OTC Fleet Services professionally at customer locations.

Qualifications include:

  • Previous professional mechanical experience required
  • Hands-on automotive, fleet, diesel, truck, equipment, road-service, or similar repair experience
  • Strong general mechanical and troubleshooting ability
  • Ability to diagnose vehicle problems and complete repairs independently
  • Ability to identify vehicle safety and maintenance concerns
  • Ability to manage assigned work and time responsibly without constant direct supervision
  • Dependable attendance and strong work ethic
  • Good communication and customer-service skills
  • Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record
  • Ability to safely operate automotive tools and equipment
  • Ability and willingness to consistently work the 4:00 AM-1:00 PM Monday-Friday schedule


Previous mobile service or fleet maintenance experience is a plus.
