Job Description Job Description A day in the life at CTOS Cabot It's Monday morning in the Cabot shop. You pick up a work order, load your service truck, and head out to a customer site where a bucket truck needs diagnostics. By mid-morning, you've traced a hydraulic issue, sourced parts, and documented your findings on the repair order. After lunch back at the shop, you perform PM service on a digger derrick, knock out an electrical diagnosis on a high rail unit, and close the day reviewing labor and parts so costs are recorded accurately.
Where you'll make an impact Troubleshoot, repair, and maintain chassis and track-mounted aerials, digger derricks, cranes, high rail units, and other utility equipment in the field and in the shop.
Perform PMs and corrective repairs on truck-mounted utility gear: boom and bucket trucks, diggers, dump, service, forestry units, and aerial cranes.
Work across diesel, hydraulics, electrical systems, and chassis—using diagnostics to find root causes quickly.
Prepare, document, and submit accurate records of parts, service, and labor; route repair orders to your supervisor for approval.
Champion safety: follow best practices, and attend CTOS monthly safety meetings.
Tackle other duties as assigned to keep our utility fleet mission-ready.
Schedule and expectations Full-time, Monday–Friday, day shift.
Overtime as needed with limited Saturday work.
You must hold a valid driver's license and provide your own mechanics tools.
