Fire Apparatus Painter & Body Technician

Job Overview

Precision Fire Apparatus builds, repairs, and refurbishes custom fire trucks. We’re looking for an experienced painter and body technician to take pride in the appearance and quality of the trucks we deliver.

Painting and body work will be the primary focus of this position. When work in the paint shop is light, you’ll also help with minor fabrication and installing parts on trucks. We’re looking for someone who is comfortable moving between those tasks and working with the rest of our production team.

Duties

• Prepare truck bodies, components, and equipment for paint, including cleaning, sanding, masking, and priming.
• Perform body work and make repairs as needed before painting.
• Mix and apply paint and finishes, maintaining consistent color and a high-quality appearance.
• Inspect finished work and correct imperfections.
• Perform minor fabrication and help install parts and components on trucks when needed.
• Use hand tools, power tools, and paint equipment safely and maintain a clean work area.
• Work with other team members to keep projects moving and meet quality standards.

Skills

• Experience with automotive, commercial vehicle, or equipment painting and body work.
• Strong attention to detail and pride in finished work.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
• Comfortable using hand and power tools and assisting with hands-on shop work.
• Ability to perform the physical tasks of the job, with appropriate equipment or assistance for heavier components.

Experience with welding, fabrication, truck assembly, or vehicle restoration is a plus.
