Role Description

The Opportunity

The New Equipment Prep Technician is responsible for the assembly, preparation, and final setup of new heavy equipment prior to delivery to customers.
This is not a traditional Heavy Equipment Technician (HET) role — it is focused on new machine builds, accessory installation, pre‑delivery preparation, and branding work within the shop.


The technician ensures every new machine is professionally assembled according to build specifications and dealership standards before it goes to retail customers.


The Role


Equipment Assembly & Pre‑Builds

  • Assemble and prepare new heavy equipment—primarily Hitachi ZX350-size excavators and similar units.

  • Work on two units at a time, aligning machines and components per required build specs.

  • Perform pre‑build tasks to ready equipment for retail and customer delivery.

    • Attachment & System Installation
