Diesel Mechanic — Up to $65/hr + OT
Rotational, Month Off | Statewide Alaska
Up to $65/hr plus overtime — work 5–6 weeks, then take a month off. Statewide
Machinery is hiring experienced diesel mechanics for remote Alaska field work.
Statewide Machinery is a small, fast-moving Alaska company that takes the jobs other shops turn down. We fly into remote villages to fix what’s broken where it matters most. If you take pride in solving problems nobody else can, this is the job.
The Schedule That Makes This Work
- Rotational: roughly 5–6 weeks on, then 3 weeks to a month off
- We build the rotation around you. Tell us what fits your life and we’ll work with it.
- 70+ hour weeks while you’re on, so your “on” stretches are full earning periods
What We Pay
- Up to $65/hour for the right experience
- Overtime rules apply — on 70-hour weeks, that adds up fast
- 401(k), health insurance,
For Out-of-State Mechanics
- Living quarters provided during your rotation
- Fly up, work your stretch, fly home for your month off
The Work
- Repair all makes and models of heavy equipment, marine engines, and power generation equipment
- Diagnose complex mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and diesel systems
- Travel statewide to remote sites, then return to headquarters
- Reach remote sites by small aircraft; get around on four-wheelers and snowmachines
- Document work orders completely and daily
What You Bring
- Experience repairing and maintaining diesel engines
- Advanced mechanical aptitude; strong with schematics and diagrams
- Extensive heavy equipment and marine experience
- Welding/fabrication a strong plus
- Independent judgment — you can run a job without hand-holding
- Valid driver’s license with acceptable record
- Your own professional-grade hand tools in working condition (specialty/diagnostic tools provided)
- Lift 45 lbs regularly; willing to travel to remote Alaska
This is real Alaska field work — small planes, snowmachines, long hours, and problems that
don’t come with a manual. The reward is top pay, real time off, and a crew that respects skill.
