Heavy Equipment Mechanic - Military

Heavy Equipment Mechanic

Lakehurst, NJ
$36.87/hour + health benefits
Tired of the same old wrench-turning job?

This is your chance to work on serious equipment — military-grade machines — in a steady, long-term role where your skills actually matter.

We’re looking for a Mechanic with any 91 Series Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) or other DOD equivalent training.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Diagnose, repair, and rebuild heavy equipment (dozers, graders, cranes, etc.)
• Tear down and reassemble components using proper tools and gauges
• Swap engines, transmissions, and major components
• Weld and repair structural parts
• Run and test equipment to make sure it’s job-ready
• Work alongside a team to keep everything moving

What You Need

• 2+ years working on heavy equipment or military vehicles
• Military background (91 Series MOS) OR trade school cert is a big plus
• Solid mechanical and electrical troubleshooting skills
• Ability to get a CDL
• Comfortable working in a shop + outdoor conditions

The Job Itself

• Mix of shop and outdoor work
• Lifting up to 50 lbs (more with help)
• Busy environment — no staring at the clock here
• Occasional extended hours when things ramp up

Why This Job Stands Out

• $36+/hour with medical, dental and vision insurance/benefits.
• Paid holidays
• Stable, long-term work — not seasonal or contract bouncing
• Work on equipment most techs never get access to
• Real opportunity to grow your skills

If you’re a mechanic who takes pride in your work and wants something more solid than bouncing shop to shop — apply now.
