  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date DOT driving hour logbooks.
  • Ensure proper handling, documentation, and secure transport of classified and sensitive materials.
  • Adhere to all Government security protocols and chain of custody requirements.
  • Act as a security escort for uncleared individuals, when required.
  • Retrieve materials from vendors and ensure accurate recordkeeping of transported items.
  • Follow all safety protocols to ensure the integrity and security of cargo during transit.
  • Support classified waste transport activities in compliance with applicable regulations.
  • Maintain a clean driving record and ensure all licenses and certifications remain current.

Basic Qualifications

  • Must be able to obtain TS / SCI w / Poly Clearance
  • High school diploma or equivalent.
  • Requires a CDL (Commercial Drivers License)
  • 5+ years of relevant experience in automotive maintenance and repair.
  • Completion of a formal training program or vocational certification in automotive technology or a related field.
  • Proficiency in using diagnostic tools such as motor analyzers, pressure gauges, and chassis charts.
  • Hands-on experience with disassembly, overhaul, and repair of engines, transmissions, clutches, alternators, starters, and other automotive systems.
  • Basic knowledge of hydraulics, pneumatics, and electrical systems as they apply to automotive equipment.
  • Ability to read and interpret technical manuals, factory specifications, and wiring diagrams.
  • Strong understanding of safety practices, preventive maintenance procedures, and quality control standards.
  • Familiarity with standard automotive hand and power tools.
  • Ability to perform routine inspections, brake adjustments, wheel alignments, and wiring repairs.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) certification(s) or equivalent professional credentials.
  • Experience working with a variety of vehicle types including motorcycles, buses, forklifts, and heavy-duty trucks.
  • Specialized training or experience in hydraulics and cooling systems.
  • Knowledge of energy-efficient practices in automotive maintenance.
  • Familiarity with root cause failure analysis and troubleshooting methods.
  • Experience maintaining maintenance records and adhering to compliance or inspection protocols.
  • Working knowledge of safety assurance practices in high-risk environments (e.g., military, government, industrial fleets).
  • Ability to work with minimal supervision on complex diagnostic and repair tasks.
  • Experience using computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS) or digital diagnostic platforms.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to ensure compliance with technical specifications and regulatory requirements.
  • Come break things (in a good way). Then build them smarter.

    We're the tech company everyone calls when things get weird. We don't wear capes (they're a safety hazard), but we do solve high-stakes problems with code, caffeine, and a healthy disregard for "how it's always been done."
