Job Description:
Become a Community Transit Journey Mechanic Start a career where
you help service the vehicles that serve our communities every day.
If you're looking for a job where you can build new skills, work
with new tech, and enjoy great benefits and opportunities, learn
how Community Transit may be the right place for you. What makes
Community Transit different? Stability There has never been a more
exciting time to work in the transit industry. Community Transit
offers training and career growth in an industry that needs strong
and skilled leaders. As light rail expands to our region and as our
communities continue to grow, the demand for our services - and
mechanics to keep them running - will continue to grow. Future
investments in more sustainable transportation and green technology
will also open up new opportunities for mechanics. Retirement
pension Even if you love your job, you'll probably want to retire
from it someday. Community Transit is a Washington State Public
Employees Retirement System (PERS) employer, and our exceptional
retirement benefits make it easy. A pension is a type of retirement
plan that provides monthly income after you retire from your
position. Many people consider pensions to be one of the most
reliable ways to plan for retirement, as pension funds are not
impacted by the stock market or other economic forces. With a
career at Community Transit, your future is secure. Quality of work
Taking care of our employees is key to keeping things running like
a well-oiled machine. We know that well-cared for engines - and
people - won't burn out. We emphasize quality work over quotas.
We're looking for life-long learners and problem-solvers who take
pride in their work. Our mechanics enjoy a clean and
well-maintained facility where quality of work, safety, and injury
prevention are prioritized. Variety No two days are the same as a
mechanic at Community Transit. You won't find assembly lines or
monotony in our shops. Our mechanics enjoy working on a variety of
vehicles, with various tools and tech, and each day brings a new
challenge. Investments in new vehicles and green technology will
continue to add to the variety of skills our mechanics can grow
while working here. Advanced Technology There's no crawling under
dirty engines in a cold and dingy shop at our facilities. Our
mechanics work with the most cutting-edge tools in the transit
industry in our spacious, heated, and well-lit shop that includes
lifts and the ability to easily steam clean vehicles before
service. We invest in your training with two full-time trainers
dedicated to providing continuing education to mechanics including
original equipment manufacturer's (OEM) training. $5000 Sign-on
bonus We've made starting a new career even easier with a sign-on
