Technician Careers at Coffman Truck Sales From Entry-Level to Master Technician — Built the Right Way
No matter what drives you — learning a skilled trade, building long-term financial security, or becoming a master of your craft — Coffman Truck Sales offers a clear, intentional path forward.
We’re actively hiring light-duty gas, diesel, medium duty and heavy truck technicians at every level, from beginners just entering the industry to experienced technicians ready to lead. With industry-leading OEMs, modern facilities, and hands-on leadership, Coffman is a place to build a career — not just work a job.
Our Promise to Technicians
A Clear Technician Career Path (E → A Scale)
We use a five-level technician progression with defined expectations at every stage:
Advancement is based on skills, certifications, quality, and productivity — not tenure alone.
Training Before the First Wrench Turns
Every technician achieves Professional-level training before turning their first wrench on a truck.
This is a firm standard — not a suggestion.
Why We Do This
- Technician safety comes first
- Customers’ equipment is protected
- Confidence replaces guesswork
- Repairs are done right the first time
Most shops train while you work. Coffman trains you first — then puts you to work.
Our One-Year Mastery Goal
Our goal is simple and intentional:
Bring a technician in and have them master at least one major system or product line within their first year.
That mastery might be:
- Electrical & diagnostics
- Engines
- Aftertreatment
- Chassis & braking systems
- Brand-specific platforms
Year one builds depth. Years two and beyond build breadth and leadership.
How We Make This Happen (Daily, On the Floor)
Training at Coffman is hands-on and actively managed.
- Two Dedicated Shop Foremen
Each foreman works directly with 4–5 technicians, providing daily technical guidance and coaching. - Real-Time Support
Foremen are involved in diagnostics, repair approach, and quality control — not just oversight from a desk. - Active Shop Manager Involvement
The Shop Manager tracks job times and efficiency and steps in immediately when times aren’t hitting or repairs stall. - No One Learns Alone
Problems get solved, bad habits get corrected early, and confidence builds fast.
Training isn’t separate from production — it’s built into it.
Advanced OEM Training
We invest heavily in technician development with OEM-driven programs, including:
- Volvo
- Isuzu
- GMC
