About the Role
As our Mobile Mechanic, you'll be the face of DuraFleet in the field, driving a fully equipped service truck to customer locations across our Houston-area territory. You'll handle everything from routine preventative maintenance to roadside repairs and diagnostics on diesel trucks, trailers, and commercial fleet vehicles. This is a hands-on role for someone who wants to work independently, take ownership of their truck and territory, and be part of a company built to grow.

• Respond to roadside and emergency breakdown calls, troubleshooting issues efficiently and safely

• Maintain your service vehicle, tools, and equipment in clean, safe, and reliable working condition
• Follow all safety procedures for roadside work, jobsite setup, and equipment operation
• Communicate parts needs and job status to the Account Manager/dispatch to keep customers updated
• Represent DuraFleet professionally - in appearance, communication, and workmanship - on every call
What We're Looking For
• 5+ years of diesel/heavy-duty truck repair experience (fleet, dealership, or independent shop background welcome)
• Strong diagnostic skills across engines, brakes, electrical systems, and DOT-required components
• Valid driver's license with a clean driving record; CDL a plus but not required
• Own hand tools (specialty/diagnostic equipment provided by DuraFleet)
• Comfortable working independently and managing your own schedule in the field
• Strong communication skills - you'll be interacting directly with customers on most calls
• Reliable, self-motivated, and takes pride in high-quality work
Bonus Experience
• Mobile repair or roadside service
• Fleet maintenance
• Heavy equipment repair
• ASE certifications (we'll also support your path to certification if you're not there yet)
Schedule
• Full-time with overtime opportunities
• Some Saturday work depending on workload
• Occasional after-hours/emergency calls
