Generator Service Technician

Generator Service Technician – Field Service (Company Vehicle + Paid Drive Time!)

Full-Time | Monday–Friday | 8:00 AM–4:30 PM | Home-Based Dispatch | Paid Drive Time

If you're a skilled Generator or Diesel Technician who enjoys independence, problem-solving, and working outdoors, this role offers the ideal mix of technical challenge, autonomy, and long-term career growth.

Join a rapidly expanding company where your expertise is valued, your professional development is supported, and every day brings a new challenge. No micromanagement — just the resources, tools, and trust to do great work.

Why This Role Stands Out

Company vehicle provided after training

Paid drive time from home → job site → home

Work within a 60–90 minute radius of St. Paul

Consistent daytime hours with limited after-hours work

Outdoor, hands-on work that keeps the job interesting

Rapid company growth = big advancement opportunities

Supportive team environment with strong technical leadership

Job stability — generators are essential, year-round systems

What You'll Do

You will be the face of the company on customer sites, performing critical maintenance and repairs on gas and diesel generators.

Core responsibilities include:

• Diagnose and repair gas and diesel engines, internal combustion engines, and generator systems
• Maintain, test, and service transfer switches and AC/DC generators
• Diagnose electrical issues, including relay switches and control systems
• Conduct scheduled preventive maintenance
• Document service work and communicate findings to customers
• Complete simple computer tasks (Microsoft Word, Outlook, service logs)

This role offers a great blend of mechanical, electrical, and customer-facing work — perfect for a technician who likes variety.

Essential Skills

We're looking for techs who bring:

• Experience maintaining, troubleshooting, and repairing generators
• Electrical and mechanical service knowledge
• Ability to diagnose diesel engines and electrical components
• Understanding of AC/DC generator circuitry

Preferred Background

You'll be a great fit if you have:

• 2+ years servicing diesel/gas engines or generators
• A technical degree in diesel tech, automotive, or similar field
• 2+ years of electrical troubleshooting on engines/equipment
• Strong mechanical aptitude and problem-solving skills

Work Environment

• 90% of work outdoors — perfect for techs who prefer out-in-the-field work instead of being stuck in a shop
• Monday–Friday schedule, 8:00 AM–4:30 PM
• Occasional work after 4:30 PM as needed
• After the first year, you'll join an on-call rotation (supported and scheduled)

Your Career, Your Future

This is not a dead-end wrench-turning role. We offer:

• Continuous training on generators, electrical systems, and controls
• Manufacturer training and certifications
• Clear paths to Lead Tech, Controls Specialist, or Field Supervisor roles
• A rapidly expanding company where top performers move up quickly

If you want a career, not just a job — this is it.
