Full description
We’re looking for a skilled and safety-focused GSE Mechanic I to help keep our Ground Support Equipment operating at peak performance. In this hands-on role, you’ll inspect, maintain, repair, and overhaul both powered and non-powered GSE—playing a critical role in reliable airport operations.
Beyond turning wrenches, you’ll be a trusted technical resource, mentoring less experienced mechanics and stepping into a leadership role when the Supervisor is unavailable. If you take pride in quality work, ownership, and teamwork, this is an opportunity to grow your career in a dynamic aviation environment.

Inspect, maintain, repair, and overhaul a wide range of ground support equipment
•
Troubleshoot and repair gas and diesel engines, hydraulic systems, drivetrains, and battery-operated equipment

Perform light and heavy-duty tire and wheel changes
•
Accurately complete maintenance and repair documentation in compliance with all carrier, airport, municipal, state, and federal requirements
•
Respond to emergency service calls and incidents involving GSE
•
Serve as a liaison between ABX and contractors for equipment maintenance, modification, and operations
•
Provide guidance and mentorship to junior mechanics
•
Oversee maintenance work in the absence of a Supervisor
•
Maintain strong communication with all levels of the organization
•
Support facility or property equipment maintenance as directed by management
•
Work independently while consistently practicing safety-conscious behaviors

•
Automatic and manual transmissions and drivetrains
•
Hydraulic systems and battery-operated equipment
•
Basic computer skills
•
Ability to work independently with minimal supervision
•
Must supply a complete set of mechanic’s tools (company provides specialized tools)
•
Physical ability to:
•
Stoop, bend, and work in confined spaces
•
Work at heights
•
Frequently lift up to 10 lbs. and occasionally lift up to 75 lbs.
