Master of Yellow Iron (Heavy Equipment Mechanic)

Job Description

Job Description

Description :

Are you a veteran "grease monkey" who lives and breathes yellow iron? Rock Pros is looking for two highly skilled "gearheads" to be the backbone of our maintenance operation. We are hiring one master mechanic to cover the South / East area and another for the North / West, but both positions may be required to support either area as needed. You'll be provided with a company vehicle to support your work in the field. This isn't just about turning wrenches; it's about being the master of the iron in the pit and the man who keeps the entire plant humming. If you're the go-to guy for a broken-down crusher and you can read a hydraulic schematic like a road map, we want to talk to you.

We need individuals with a "go-and-up-for-anything" mindset, comfortable with extensive travel to various locations in Arizona and potentially Nevada. This role requires a clean driving record and an unrestricted driver's license.

Essential Responsibilities : Keeping the Iron Running

The Master Mechanic :

• You're a master of your trade, expertly diagnosing and fixing all our yellow iron , from loaders and haul trucks to the plant's crushers and screens. When a piece of equipment goes down, you're the first one we call to get the rig back in the action.
• You independently tackle the toughest breakdowns. You don't just fix what's broken; you find the root cause and implement preventative maintenance to keep it from happening again.
• You handle the big jobs, from complete engine overhauls to "tearing down" transmissions. You know how to use specialized tools and make sure every job is done safely and efficiently.
• You've got a deep understanding of hydraulic and electrical systems. You can troubleshoot the most complex malfunctions and communicate the extent of the repairs and the plan to the executive team.
• You expertly diagnose and repair everything from a track-hoe and rubber duck to a skid steer / bobcat , dozer , or loader . You're the one to get the Grizzly back in action, fix the Mouth / Jaws on a crusher, and even perform maintenance on a troublesome mantle or bowl liner . Our plants include 3-deck screens, so your expertise on a plant's deck and conveyor system is crucial to keeping the entire operation running. Your goal is to mitigate downtime and keep the iron running.
