Doctor Air Brake Ltd is growing, and we're looking for a technically minded person to join our team as an HGV Safety Systems Installation Engineer.
This isn't just another vehicle installation job.
You'll be trained to work with specialist HGV braking, electronic and vehicle safety technology, installing and commissioning systems designed to help prevent accidents and protect drivers, pedestrians and fleets.
About Doctor Air Brake
Founded in the early 1990s, Doctor Air Brake Ltd has grown from a specialist in HGV air brake and ABS fault finding into a leading provider of commercial vehicle diagnostics, braking and safety technology.
We develop and supply specialist systems including ReverseSmart, Impact Auto-Brake and Park Brake Warning, alongside a range of diagnostic and vehicle safety technologies.
As we continue to grow, we're looking for someone who wants to build a career and become a specialist in this area of commercial vehicle engineering.
The Role
You'll initially be based at our Wolverhampton HQ, where you'll complete a structured training programme covering our products, HGV electrical systems, braking technology, diagnostics and installation standards.
Once trained, you'll work nationwide at customer sites, installing, configuring and commissioning our systems on trucks, trailers and specialist vehicles.
