Frito-Lay Fleet Technicians are essential to our team because they work

on our fleet vehicles and keep our drivers safe. Are you looking for a

job at a company that rewards the mechanically gifted? Although you will

start out working for Frito-Lay, this job can open the door to career

opportunities with our parent company, PepsiCo.

We are proud to offer you a generous starting salary which ramps up

quickly for top performers. We also offer unbeatable benefits including

health insurance, dental and vision, retirement savings benefits

including 401(k) with company contribution, vacation days and much more.

You may already be familiar with what this position entails. You will

help us maintain and repair our vehicles, diagnose mechanical issues,

manage parts inventory, and charge parts and labor to work orders. We

asked our Fleet Technicians what else we should let you know about

working here, and this is what the team had to say about frequent tasks

you can expect to perform:

* You will use your extensive knowledge to assist entry-level mechanics

with difficult repairs.

* You will build relationships with vendors when getting estimates for

parts or labor.

* You will interact with a variety of Frito-Lay drivers, from

professional truck drivers to salespeople.

prioritizing work and preventative maintenance inspections, and

proactive/follow-up repairs.

Given the fact that we offer high wages and phenomenal benefits, you

might be wondering what will give you an edge when you apply to

Frito-Lay. Here is an idea of the characteristics our managers look

for:

* Safety-Focused: Drivers are counting on your focus on safety which

means doing the job correctly and not taking shortcuts.

* Flexibility: Like all Frito-Lay team members, your work on weekends

and holidays helps us maintain our industry dominance. We place a high

premium on teamwork.

* Attention to Detail: We want to avoid breakdowns and stranded

drivers. Your approach to preventative maintenance should be diligent,

even meticulous, when it comes to maintaining our fleet.

* Initiative: You are in the field by yours lf much of the time. Our

best people would put it this way: we need folds who can show up and

work until the job is done.

* Leadership: You will manage situations that might involve providing

instructions to coworkers in the spirit of safety, efficiency, and

cooperation. Frito-Lay leaders will trust you to make good decisions.

* Tech Savvy: Technology will enable you to quickly diagnose mechanical

problems, and you will also draw upon your computer skills when

installing electronic logging devices such as tablets and dashboard

computers.

* Teamwork: Its important that you work well with others because you

will regularly interact with our Regional Drivers, vendors and other

team members.

out on the road delivering quality snacks to our customers as a direct

result of your personal expertise and work ethic.
