<p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">This role has one job at its core: every machine in the fleet is serviced, repaired, and ready before snow season starts, and stays running through it. That is the craft. Trucks and equipment stay out of the yard and in the field where they earn their keep, and the field crews count on what rolls out of the shop.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">We're looking for a Mechanic in Norfolk, ma.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">If that work speaks to you, keep reading.</p><h2 style="margin: 20px 0px 8px;">Why Work With Us</h2><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">Hunter Environmental is a growing company in environmental construction and snow removal. The craft of this seat is what the whole operation leans on when the snow starts falling. Machines hold up mid-storm, winter prep finishes on time, and the crews in the field have equipment they can count on. That is what good looks like here.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">Because we are still growing, the person who takes this seat helps shape how the shop runs day to day. Your ideas carry weight, and the standard of the work carries your name.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">If a shop built around craft and finished work sounds like your kind of place, keep reading.</p><h2 style="margin: 20px 0px 8px;">Please Don't Apply If\u2026</h2><ul><li>You are fine handing a job to the next person half done.</li><li>You swap parts until something changes instead of finding the actual fault.</li><li>You go quiet when the plan shifts at the last minute.</li><li>You leave your bench, your cart, and the parts room however you found them.</li><li>You sit on a correction instead of applying it the same day.</li><li>You want someone else holding your schedule for you.</li></ul><h2 style="margin: 20px 0px 8px;">Are You a Great Fit?</h2><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You take pride in pointing at a finished machine and saying you built it, refurbished it, or brought it back from worn out.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You chase the job nobody else wants to pick up, and you want a different problem in front of you every day.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You set your own pace and hold to it. You put preventive work on the calendar and do not let it slip.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You check your own work before it leaves the bench. When you spot a problem, you flag it the moment you see it, and you ask early for what you need.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You pick up the phone on a holiday when a storm is on, and the long hours do not surprise you when the pay follows them.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You write down what you did and when, and you show the next person how you did it. Respect comes from finished work, and that fits how you think.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You put shared spaces back the way you found them, because the next job starts faster when they are in order.</p><h2 style="margin: 20px 0px 8px;">What You'll Be Responsible For</h2><h3>A Fleet Ready Before The First Snow</h3><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">From late April through October, you pace the prep window so every machine in the fleet is fully serviced and ready to run for the season by the October 31 deadline. Preventive maintenance follows a schedule you set and hold yourself to, logged in the maintenance tracking system so nothing slips.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">Each service is a real inspection. Developing problems get caught while there is still time to fix them, which is the point of running the schedule in the first place.</p><h3>Repairs Done To The Root Cause</h3><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">When a truck or a piece of heavy equipment comes in broken, you diagnose it to the actual fault and finish the repair so it holds. You pull scan data, you work the hydraulics, you follow the problem to where it lives, and the machine runs when it leaves.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">In season the pressure climbs. Seventy-hour weeks and holidays come with the territory when a storm is on, and a machine that goes down gets back to the crews the same push.</p><h3>Overhauls And Builds That Carry Your Name</h3><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You take worn equipment through full refurbishment and bring it back ready for service. You build hooklift trucks in-house from the ground up, the kind of work a person points at years later.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">When a refurb or a build leaves the shop, it performs the way it should and holds up through a full season of hard use.</p><h3>Parts Made In-House</h3><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">When a part is not on the shelf, or is not worth waiting on, you make it. You cut, weld, and paint using the shop's fabrication equipment, and the finish holds up in the field. The shop keeps moving under its own power.</p><h3>A Final Check Before The Field</h3><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">Every machine gets inspected before it is released to the crews, and it leaves safe and working. You are the last set of eyes between the bench and a storm, and you own that call.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You keep the shop in order too. Shared spaces, the parts rooms, and your own cart, bench, and toolbox stay organized so the next job starts fast and the next mechanic finds what they need.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">Sound like your kind of shop?
