Job Description:
Job Description This is a dual role, and both halves matter year-round. When wrenches need turning, you're in the shop. When grain needs moving - harvest, post-harvest, or any point in between - you're behind the wheel of a semi. You shift between them based on what the operation needs. You're not a support role. You're the person responsible for keeping the fleet alive. If something breaks at a bad time, it's on you to have seen it coming. You run the shop like it's yours - because functionally, it is.
What You'll Be Doing:
Maintain and repair the full fleet - tractors, combines, sprayers, air seeders, grain carts, drills, and trucks Diagnose and fix mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical issues Build and own the preventive maintenance schedule - you set it, you keep it Make the call on parts, vendors, and repair vs. replace Keep the shop organized - parts inventory, tooling, vendor contacts, warranty tracking Drive semi whenever grain needs to move, not just during harvest Track maintenance records and document decisions
What We're Looking For:
Solid diesel mechanic background - engines, hydraulics, and electrical Experience with large farm equipment (John Deere, Case IH, or similar)CDL license, or willing to get one Self-sufficient - you know what needs doing without someone making you a list Someone who takes it personally when a machine goes down at the wrong time Comfortable living and working in a remote rural area What We Offer$30-$40 per hour depending on experience Housing included - We help you relocate Year-round, stable workA straightforward family operation that respects your skills and trusts your judgment
Heavy Equipment Mechanic Duties and Responsibilities:
Perform electrical, hydraulic, and mechanical repairs as well as preventative maintenance Troubleshoot issues with diesel engines Determine what parts and tools are necessary to make repairs Complete shop paperwork Maintain a clean and safe work area
Heavy Equipment Mechanic Requirements and Qualifications:
High school diploma or GED certificate Post-secondary certificate or degree in engineering OR training as a mechanic (a plus)5 years of experience with diesel/heavy equipment repair Welding experience (a plus)Manual dexterity Valid driver's license and a clean driving record Company Description Yirsa Farms is a family-operated farm located in the heart of Montana.
