Now Hiring: Experienced Diesel Mechanic

East St. Louis, IL – Rose Lake Rail Terminal

Take your skills to a place where they truly matter. At Pacific Rail Services (PRS), we keep one of the busiest rail terminals in the region moving every single day, and we need a top-tier diesel mechanic who’s ready to own the job.

What We Offer You:

Real money: $70,000 – $90,000 per year ($35 – $39/hour based on experience) with regular overtime available.

Predictable day shift: Monday – Friday with occasional weekend call-ins.
Union strength: Proud member of District 9.
Room to grow: ongoing training, new challenges, and clear paths forward in a rock-solid industry.

The Work You’ll Do: (and actually enjoy)

Keep heavy forklifts, hostlers, and terminal vehicles in top shape
Tackle air, electrical, hydraulic, and diesel systems with confidence
Weld, fabricate, and problem-solve on the spot
Perform preventative maintenance that prevents downtime and keeps the terminal flowing
Jump in wherever the team needs you—every day is different

What You Bring:

At least 2 years of real diesel or heavy equipment experience
Your own hand tools (we give you a generous yearly tool allowance)
Solid understanding of air brakes, electrical, hydraulics, and diesel engines
Valid driver’s license and a clean-enough record to pass a standard 7-year background check and drug screen
