Accurately document all work for compliance and quality records.
Follow OSHA, FMCSA, and company safety protocols every day.
Pitch in with other shop tasks to keep the team moving forward.

Who We're Looking For:

At least 1 year of chassis, trailer, or intermodal maintenance experience (required).
Solid mechanical aptitude and strong troubleshooting skills.
Comfortable working outdoors in all weather conditions.
Able to stand, lift, and move throughout long shifts.
A motivated team player who takes pride in quality work.
Meets FMCSA mechanical experience requirements.
Welding experience and/or hostler (yard jockey) skills are a big plus!
Familiarity with shop tools and equipment.
Detail-oriented, reliable, and safety-focused.
Basic personal tools and reliable transportation to the yard.

If Selected, You'll Need To:

Pass a Physical Capabilities Test and drug screening.
Hold a valid driver's license.
Live within 45 minutes of Syracuse, NY (no relocation offered).

What You Can Expect in Return:

Competitive Earnings: $60,000–$75,000+ in your first year (with opportunities for overtime in a high-demand industry).
Outstanding Union Benefits through Teamsters: Free medical (after 60 days), dental, and vision coverage.
Free life insurance.
Paid holidays, personal days, and vacation time.
Boot reimbursement to keep you equipped.
401(k) with annual company contributions.
A direct-hire role with Pacific Rail Services (not the railroad) in a stable field.
