Description

Bring your diesel skills — we’ll teach the rest.

You don’t need marine experience to succeed here. If you’ve worked on farm equipment, construction machinery, trucking fleets, generators, or industrial diesel engines, your skills translate — and we’re ready to help you grow.

Laborde Products is expanding in Paducah and looking for dependable technicians who want steady work, strong pay potential, and a company that invests in your future.

  • Competitive hourly wages depending on experience
  • Reliable income year-round
  • Maximum 1 week per month on call rotation
  • In-house technical training to grow your career
  • Annual pay reviews – your performance gets recognized
  • 401(k) with company match– We encourage your to plan for your future
  • Medical insurance with 100% employer paid option for team members
  • Better work-life balance than most service shops
  • Tool-building support to help you get fully equipped
  • Strong work-life balance and flexibility with hours
  • Family-oriented culture with supportive leadership
  • If you’re coming from agriculture, you’ll likely notice something quickly — less seasonal pressure and more consistency.

What You’ll Do

  • Diagnose, repair, and service marine and industrial diesel equipment.
  • Troubleshoot mechanical issues and support customers after the sale.
  • Follow service manuals and schematics to complete repairs safely.
  • Maintain tools, equipment, and service vehicles.
  • Work with a small, team-focused group that supports each other.

What We’re Looking For

  • Diesel technicians with 3+ years of experience — agriculture and heavy equipment backgrounds encouraged.
  • Mechanics known for reliability, professionalism, and strong work ethic.
  • Team players willing to jump in and help when needed.
  • Individuals with a valid driver’s license and clean record.
  • Rebuild experience is highly valued — but attitude and willingness to learn matter just as much.

If you’re tired of bouncing between employers chasing hourly increases, this is a place you can build a lasting career.
