Description

Why LandPro Equipment? 


We're proud to be a trusted John Deere dealer serving communities across New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania but what sets us apart is how we show up every day. 


Our goal is simple, to be the most respected dealership by living our PRO values: Professionalism, Respect, and Outstanding Service. 


At LandPro Equipment, our team members aren't just employees, they're PROs.


A Day in the Life of a Small Engine Mechanic


As a Small Engine Mechanic, your day is spent diagnosing issues, making repairs, and performing maintenance that helps customers get the most out of their equipment.


You may be working on riding mowers, zero-turn mowers, compact tractors, handheld equipment, or other turf and lawn & garden machines. One job may involve troubleshooting an engine issue, while the next is preventative maintenance or preparing equipment for the season ahead.


You'll work in a shop environment alongside a team of experienced technicians, using your skills and tools to keep equipment running safely and efficiently.


Every day is different, but the goal is always the same: do the job right and take care of the customer.


What You'll Do


As a Small Engine Mechanic, you will:

  • diagnose, repair, and maintain lawn, garden, and turf equipment 
  • perform routine service and preventative maintenance on customer and dealer-owned equipment 
  • troubleshoot mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic issues  
  • use service manuals, tools, and diagnostic systems to complete repairs accurately 
  • maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area 
  • complete work orders, reports, and documentation accurately and on time 
  • track time and materials used on each repair 
  • participate in ongoing training to build your technical knowledge 
  • work closely with teammates to support shop productivity  

What You Bring


You'll be a great fit for this Small Engine Mechanic role if you:

  • enjoy hands-on mechanical work and solving problems 
  • take pride in quality workmanship and attention to detail 
  • work well independently and as part of a team 
  • stay organized and dependable in a fast-paced shop environment 
  • care about safety and doing the job right the first time 
  • want to continue learning and growing your technical skills 

What You Need to be a LandPro Small Engine Mechanic:

  • 1+ years of experience performing service repairs on lawn & garden equipment or similar machinery 
  • mechanical aptitude with knowledge of small engines and equipment systems 
  • ability to perform repairs and maintenance using tools and service procedures 
  • basic computer skills and ability to complete digital work orders 
  • ability to safely operate equipment used for diagnostics 
  • strong verbal and written communication skills 
  • ability to lift 75 lbs. repeatedly 
  • valid driver's license 
  • high school diploma or equivalent experience 

It's a Plus if You Have:

  • experience with John Deere, turf, or lawn & garden equipment 
  • basic service technician certification 
  • associate degree in a technical  field 
  • forklift certification 
  • experience using Service Advisor or  similar software
