What is work like for a Cat mechanic?

No day is the same for a service technician. You might repair an engine on a wheel loader or diagnose electrical system issues on a dozer. What does remain the same are daily safety protocols and meeting with your team — practices that make sure your workplace is productive and safe.

Caterpillar manufactures a variety of machines like dozers, excavators and compactors, so you’re bound to work on something different each day. The variety of machines and tasks will depend on the industries your dealer serves, from construction to mining and everything in between.

What are the job details and benefits of being a Cat technician?

In addition to a competitive salary, you can expect a comprehensive benefits package including health insurance, retirement contributions and paid time off. Salary will vary by location.

At Cat dealers, mechanics and diesel mechanics are called service technicians — and the work they do makes a real difference every day. Technicians maintain and repair Cat machines, from equipment that builds our roads and communities to engines that power marine vessels. Diesel mechanics carry out similar responsibilities but mostly specialize in engines.

The Cat dealer network is the largest, most experienced dealer network in the world. With over 160 independent Cat dealers, there are plenty of opportunities to find a job near you.
