Job Description

About the Opportunity

We are partnering with a premier, rapidly growing commercial facility services company specializing in industrial loading docks, commercial doors, and entrance automation systems.

We are seeking a dependable, mechanically inclined Field Service Technician for our West Springfield, MA branch. We are fully open to training an ambitious apprentice with a strong mechanical foundation, as well as hiring an experienced commercial dock and door veteran.

If you are an apprentice or general mechanic, you will be paired directly with a Senior Lead Technician in a fully stocked service vehicle, learning the specialized trade of heavy mechanical installations, hydraulic dock repairs, and low-voltage operator troubleshooting with a clear path to running your own truck.

Why Join This Team?

  • Paid Hands-On Trade Training: Learn a lucrative, recession-proof trade from elite senior technicians while getting paid full-time.
  • Top Equipment & Gear: Operate with brand-new, fully equipped company service vehicles and all specialized power tools provided.
  • Career Trajectory: Clear internal advancement roadmap to move from apprentice helper to lead technician, service supervisor, or field operations management.
  • Supportive, No-BS Culture: A team-first shop that values hard work, respects your time, and eliminates workplace drama.

What You Will Do

  • Mechanical Repair & Maintenance: Assist in troubleshooting, servicing, and installing commercial overhead doors, high-speed roll-up doors, hydraulic/mechanical dock levelers, and vehicle restraint systems.
  • Hands-On Trade Learning: Master motor operator diagnostics, low-voltage control wiring, spring tensioning, track alignment, and hydraulic loop repairs.
  • Facility Installations: Perform heavy mechanical tear-outs and new equipment installs across regional distribution hubs, manufacturing plants, and commercial warehouses.
  • On-Site Professionalism: Partner with your lead technician to communicate clearly with warehouse and facility managers on job progress and equipment operation.

What We Are Looking For

The Core Mindset (Non-Negotiables):

  • Show Up & Execute: Exceptional attendance and reliability. You show up on time every day ready to work.
  • Career-Driven: You want to master a high-earning craft—not just collect a temporary paycheck.
  • Focused & Drama-Free: High integrity, positive attitude, professional communication, and able to keep your phone put away during the workday.

Technical & Physical Requirements:

  • Mechanical Baseline: Comfortable using basic hand and power tools (socket sets, wrenches, impact drivers, angle grinders). Experience in automotive mechanics, equipment repair, general construction, HVAC, or residential garage doors is a plus. (Basic welding aptitude is a plus, but this is a mobile field service role, not a stationary welding job).
  • Comfort at Heights: Comfortable working on ladders, scaffolding, and scissor/boom lifts.
  • Physical Capability: Ability to safely lift and carry 50+ lbs on active jobsites in varying indoor/outdoor conditions.
  • Logistics: Valid driver’s license with a relatively clean driving record; ability to pass a standard background check.

Compensation & Comprehensive Benefits

  • Pay Rate: $20.00 – $30.00/hour (commensurate with mechanical and industry experience) + strong overtime potential
  • Health Coverage: Comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance
  • Retirement: 401(k) retirement plan with company match
  • Paid Time Off: Paid vacation, sick time, and paid company holidays
  • Equipment Provided: Fully stocked company vehicle, uniforms, specialty tools, and safety gear

Work Location: West Springfield, MA (Field Service across regional commercial accounts)
