Field Service Mechanic

Field Service Mechanic

PIRTEK is proud to be the nation's leading provider for on-site hydraulic and industrial hose assembly and replacement. Our success is driven by a team of dedicated franchise partners and team members.

Our Field Service Mechanics are averaging $28 to $37 per hour, when you factor in:

• Overtime after 8 hours in a day
• Double time after 10 hours in a day
• On-call pay
• Commissions

Ask yourself:

• Does your current employer pay time and a half after 8 hours in a day?
• Do they pay double time after 10 hours in the same day?

If the answer is no, you should talk to us.

As a Field Service Mechanic, you will provide on-site hydraulic hose service for customers across southeastern Wisconsin. You will:

• Respond to service calls replacing hydraulic hoses, tubing, and fittings
• Diagnose hose failures and determine the correct repair solution
• Fabricate replacement hoses on-site using a fully equipped service vehicle
• Communicate clearly with customers and explain repairs and recommendations
• Identify additional service or replacement needs while on location
• Safely operate and maintain your company-provided service van
• Participate in a rotating on-call schedule with additional pay

This is hands-on, field-based work. You will work independently most days and represent PIRTEK directly at customer sites.

No two days are the same, but most days look like this:

• Start your day from home or the shop with a stocked service van
• Run scheduled service calls and emergency breakdowns
• Travel to customer sites including manufacturing facilities, construction sites, and fleet yards
• Diagnose leaks, remove failed hoses, and build replacements on-site using company equipment and your own hand tools
• Talk with customers, document work, and move on to the next call
• Some days run longer, and when they do, you are paid daily overtime and double time

This role rewards mechanics who like autonomy, problem-solving, and getting paid fairly for long days.

We offer:

• Average earnings of $28 to $37 per hour
• Daily overtime pay
• Time and a half after 8 hours
• Double time after 10 hours
• On-call pay and commission opportunities
• Fully equipped service vehicle provided
• Paid Time Off
• Paid major holidays
• Health insurance with 50% of the premium paid by the company
• 401(k)
• Paid training, hydraulic experience not required for the right candidate

We are looking for:

• Mechanical aptitude and comfort working with your hands
• At least one year of experience in mechanical repair, assembly, or a skilled trade
• Ownership of basic hand tools required
• Strong customer service and communication skills
• Valid driver's license and clean driving record
• Ability to safely operate and park a commercial service van at or near your residence
• High school diploma or equivalent

We are a local operation, not a corporate machine.

• Clear and fair overtime rules
• Equipment that works
• Leadership that understands field work
• A team that respects your time and effort

If you want steady work, real overtime pay, and a role where your skill matters, this job is worth a conversation.
