Phoenix, AZ

$25-$35/hour + ESOP Ownership + Bonus + 401(k) Match!

Work on quality equipment. No crazy shifts. Home every night.

Felix Construction is looking for an experienced Heavy Equipment Mechanic to help keep our fleet running strong. If you enjoy diagnosing problems, replacing major components, and seeing the results of your work every day, you'll fit right in.

Unlike many mechanic jobs, you'll work consistent Monday-Friday shop hours, no overnight travel, and no rotating shifts. You'll have a clean, temperature-controlled shop, modern bays, and a wide variety of equipment to work on.

Most importantly, you'll become an employee-owner through our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), which means when the company succeeds, you share in that success.

What You'll Do

You'll perform most repairs and component replacements on heavy construction equipment in the temperature-controlled shop with emergency repairs performed out in the field.

Responsibilities include:

• Replace major components including powertrain, brake, steering, suspension, and drivetrain systems
• Perform heavy mechanical repairs on backhoes, loaders, excavators, lifts, trucks, trailers, and other construction equipment
• Repair and replace starters, alternators, batteries, and other electrical components
• Assist with hydraulic system repairs and component replacement
• Assist with engine and transmission repairs and overhauls
• Test equipment after repairs to verify proper operation
• Complete equipment inspection reports and repair documentation
• Order replacement parts as needed
• Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area
• Follow all company safety procedures and OSHA requirements

Who You Are

We're looking for someone who:

• Has 3-5 years of experience working as a heavy equipment or heavy-duty truck mechanic
• Is comfortable performing heavy line mechanical work and major parts replacement
• Can follow direction from senior mechanics or supervisors and complete repairs with minimal supervision
• Takes ownership of assigned work and sees it through to completion
• Enjoys being a hands-on mechanic rather than managing others
• Works safely and takes pride in quality workmanship

Qualifications

• Experience repairing heavy construction equipment, heavy trucks, or similar equipment
• Strong mechanical aptitude
• Valid driver's license with a good driving record
• CDL preferred, but not required
• High school diploma or GED preferred
• Bilingual (English/Spanish) is a plus
