About Coastal Waste & Recycling
At Coastal Waste & Recycling, we're building more than a company, we're building a team. As one of the fastest-growing privately held waste and recycling companies in the Southeast, we're looking for people who take pride in their work, put safety first, and are ready to grow with us.
Take Your Skills to the Next Level.
Are you an experienced diesel technician who's ready to tackle more advanced repairs, grow your technical expertise, and build a long-term career? As a Diesel Technician B (Advanced Technician) at Coastal Waste & Recycling, you'll play a key role in keeping our trucks and equipment operating safely and reliably every day.
At Coastal, our technicians are more than mechanics-they're trusted professionals who help keep our operations running and our customers served. If you're looking for a place where you can continue learning, take on new challenges, and grow into a Master Technician, we'd love to meet you.
Your Role
As a Diesel Technician B (Advanced Technician), you'll inspect, diagnose, repair, and maintain heavy-duty trucks, refuse vehicles, trailers, and equipment while continuing to expand your technical expertise. You'll perform preventive maintenance, complete intermediate and advanced repairs, work alongside experienced Master Technicians, and help maximize equipment reliability and operational uptime.
What You'll Do
  • Diagnose and repair diesel engines, hydraulic systems, electrical systems, steering, suspension, transmissions, and air brake systems.
  • Perform preventive maintenance inspections to maximize the reliability of our trucks and equipment.

  • Utilize diagnostic software and electronic testing equipment to identify equipment failures.
  • Perform welding, fabrication, and component repairs when qualified.
  • Accurately complete repair orders, inspections, maintenance documentation, and parts records.
  • Work alongside Diesel Technician A (Master Technician)s while continuing to build your technical knowledge and skills.
  • Respond to emergency repairs and operational needs as assigned.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work environment while following OSHA regulations and company safety standards.
  • Wear required personal protective equipment (PPE) and promote a strong safety culture.
  • At Coastal, we win as a team. Our Diesel Technician B (Advanced Technician)s support one another, continue learning every day, and do whatever it takes to safely return our trucks and equipment to service.

What You'll Bring
  • One (1) or more years of experience maintaining or repairing diesel trucks, heavy equipment, commercial vehicles, or related mechanical systems.
  • Basic knowledge of diesel engines, hydraulics, electrical systems, brakes, suspension, and preventive maintenance.
  • Valid driver's license with an acceptable driving record.
  • Must provide and maintain a basic set of professional tools.
  • ASE certifications, Brake Certification, Class A CDL, refuse industry experience, and bilingual (English/Spanish or English/Creole) are a plus.

Why You'll Love Working Here
  • Competitive Pay
  • Comprehensive Medical, Dental & Vision Benefits
  • 401(k) with Company Match
  • Paid Time Off & Holidays
  • Employee Referral Program
  • Career Growth & Advancement Opportunities
  • Modern tools and diagnostic equipment
  • Opportunity to work on a diverse fleet of heavy-duty trucks and equipment
  • Collaborative team environment where your growth is supported

If you're ready to grow your career with a company that values craftsmanship, teamwork, and continuous learning, we'd love to have you join the Coastal Waste & Recycling team.
