POSITION DESCRIPTION
The General Services Department is offering an exciting career opportunity for experienced Fire Equipment Mechanics. Fire Equipment Mechanic I is the entry level class in the Fire Equipment Mechanic series. This class differs from Fire Equipment Mechanic II in that the latter is the journey level class in which incumbents are expected to independently diagnose and complete maintenance and repair assignments with minimal supervision.
Fire Equipment Mechanic I, under close supervision, maintains and repairs Fire Department heavy equipment, apparatus, and related fire-fighting equipment. Incumbents perform maintenance and minor repairs, applying previously acquired mechanical skills while learning the special skills required in maintaining and repairing fire apparatus and related equipment. Duties include but are not limited to: maintaining and repairing all Fire Department equipment and apparatus including engines, trucks, air brake systems and ladders; designing and constructing component parts and units necessary to the operation of equipment and apparatus; rebuilding parts, such as fire pumps, valves, transmission mounts, brackets and clamps; and performing simple fabrication tasks using lathes, shapers, drill presses, and welding equipment. The ideal applicant should possess the interest, drive and ability to operate efficiently within a fast-paced environment. Incumbents may be required to work any shift and may be required to work on-call during holidays, weekends and nights as assigned.
