At Transwest Mobile, we're innovators and problem-solvers, delivering top-tier mobile repair solutions across Arizona, California, Nevada, Texas, and Utah. With over 25 years of trusted service, we keep contractors, municipalities, and fleet operators moving with minimal downtime. If you take pride in quality field work, thrive independently, and want to make a real impact every day — let's connect!

About the Role

As a Mobile Trailer Technician, you'll travel to customer sites across the Phoenix metro to diagnose, repair, and maintain semi-trailers and related equipment — getting fleets back on the road fast. This is a high-visibility, independent role where your craftsmanship directly impacts our clients' bottom line.

What You'll Do

  • Inspect, diagnose, and repair trailer components — including brakes, landing gear, suspension, axles, wiring, and lighting systems
  • Perform DOT compliance inspections and ensure all work meets federal and state safety standards
  • Conduct both scheduled preventative maintenance and unscheduled roadside repairs with minimal supervision
  • Troubleshoot air, electrical, and hydraulic systems using diagnostic tools and service documentation
  • Communicate repair findings and recommendations clearly to customers on-site
  • Maintain thorough, accurate records of all services, parts, and labor performed
  • Collaborate with dispatch and service teams to prioritize calls and manage daily workflow efficiently

What You Bring

  • High school diploma or GED
  • 3+ years of hands-on trailer repair experience (brakes, suspension, electrical, landing gear, doors)
  • Solid understanding of DOT regulations and trailer inspection requirements
  • Ability to diagnose and repair air brake systems, lighting/electrical circuits, and structural components
  • Ability to supply own hand tools suitable for the role
  • Strong self-management skills — ability to prioritize tasks and work independently in the field
  • Valid driver's license and ability to operate a company service vehicle
  • Ability to pass background checks, lift 50+ lbs, and work in indoor/outdoor environments

Preferred Qualifications

  • ASE certifications — particularly T4 (Brakes) or T5 (Suspension & Steering) preferred
  • Experience with refrigerated (reefer) trailers, flatbeds, or specialty trailer types
  • Prior mobile or field service repair experience
  • Customer-facing experience with strong communication skills
  • CDL-A or experience operating heavy equipment is a plus

Why Transwest Mobile?

  • Impactful Work — Keep critical freight-hauling equipment operational across the Phoenix market
  • Growth Opportunities — On-the-job training and development with industry-leading partners
  • Supportive Culture — A team that values innovation, collaboration, and your expertise
  • Company Vehicle — Fully equipped service truck provided for all mobile calls

Benefits Include:

  • Health, Vision & Dental Insurance
  • Health Savings Account (HSA) with company match
  • 401(k)
  • Life & Disability Insurance
  • Paid Time Off & Holidays
  • Referral Bonus Program
  • Overtime opportunities based on performance
  • Work boot allowance, uniforms & cleaning provided
  • On-the-job training
