Make Your Next Career Move to Florida

Road & Rail Services is recruiting a skilled Locomotive Mechanic to join our operation in Mulberry, Florida. We are specifically looking for an established railroad mechanical professional who has direct experience maintaining, diagnosing, and repairing locomotives.

This position requires previous locomotive repair experience and is not intended as an entry-level opportunity.

Currently living outside Florida? That's okay. We're actively seeking experienced locomotive professionals from other markets who are open to relocating. Eligible candidates may receive a relocation package to assist with their move to the Mulberry area.

After relocation, you will report primarily to our Mulberry operation. You should also be comfortable traveling periodically when mechanical support is needed at another railroad facility or project.

What You'll Be Doing

This position combines troubleshooting, preventive maintenance, and hands-on locomotive repair. Responsibilities may include:

Diagnose locomotive mechanical and equipment failures

Inspect diesel locomotives and determine necessary repairs

Troubleshoot engines, electrical components, air systems, and brake equipment

Complete preventive maintenance and scheduled inspections

Repair, remove, and replace locomotive components

Perform welding, cutting, grinding, and fabrication work

Use electrical meters, diagnostic devices, hand tools, and power equipment

Interpret wiring diagrams, schematics, manuals, and technical specifications

Test equipment and verify proper operation following repairs

Complete required maintenance and inspection records

Maintain tools and work areas in safe condition

Follow company, customer, railroad, and applicable FRA requirements

Experience We're Looking For

Applicants must have professional, hands-on locomotive maintenance or repair experience.

Qualified candidates should bring:

Proven experience repairing diesel locomotives

Strong mechanical troubleshooting skills

Knowledge of locomotive engines and mechanical components

Experience with electrical, pneumatic, air, and brake systems

Welding and fabrication capabilities

Ability to understand technical diagrams and schematics

Experience with industrial tools and diagnostic equipment

Ability to troubleshoot and perform repairs with limited supervision

Strong safety awareness and dependable work habits

Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record

Ability to travel when operational needs require it

Willingness to relocate to Mulberry, Florida

Backgrounds such as Diesel Locomotive Mechanic, Locomotive Repairman, Composite Repairman, Locomotive Maintenance Technician, or Railroad Mechanical Technician may align well with this opportunity.

Important Relocation Information

This job is physically located in Mulberry, FL, regardless of the city where you see the advertisement.

Candidates hired from outside the area will need to relocate and establish Mulberry as their primary work location. A relocation package is available for eligible candidates according to company guidelines.

Some travel will occur after relocation, but this is not a full-time traveling position.

Pay & Benefits

$35.00–$40.00/hour based on experience and qualifications.

Benefits include medical, dental, and vision insurance; 401(k) with company match; paid holidays and vacation; weekly safety incentive opportunities; annual steel-toe boot allowance; company-provided PPE; advancement opportunities; and a veteran-friendly workplace.
