About You
This is a mid- level mechanic position, and as such you are most likely a high school or technical school graduate that is preferably ASE certified in automotive or heavy equipment maintenance. You will also bring at least a few years of heavy equipment mechanic experience to go along with it. You are a self-starter and have the ability to work with limited supervision. You possess core skills, such as mechanical, hydraulics and pneumatics, diesel motors, welding, electrical systems, and PLC skills. You may also be recently separated from Military service and looking for an opportunity that will value your self-discipline and standards for safety and excellence. But honestly, this is not the only blueprint for success at MD&B. Dedication, enthusiasm, hard work, integrity, honesty, and responsibility are key indicators for us in any candidate interested in joining our world class team. Our team members are good communicators, highly competitive (we want to win!), and work together effectively to get the job done!

Come work with the best! At Maine Drilling & Blasting (MD&B) we work like owners because we are owners. As a majority employee-owned ESOP Company, we work with the unity of family and the determination of business owners. Our standard is to achieve operational excellence at all levels of the organization, whether we are serving internal or external customers. We are fueled by success, because we are personally vested in the outcome.
Since 1966, Maine Drilling & Blasting standards have been steeped in the tradition of being family-owned and operated. We’re a close and cohesive group. We’re also owners. Maine Drilling & Blasting began the transition to employee ownership in 2004, resulting in progressively greater individual responsibility in the work being produced. We work with the unity of a family and the determination of business owners.
Maine Drilling & Blasting is the leading provider of drilling, blasting and related specialty services in the United States, and one of the largest of its kind in North America. With the controlled use of explosives, we drill and blast rock to fashion foundations for homes, business developments and bridges, carves out roadways, mine raw materials for concrete and asphalt, divert rivers and streams, prepare the earth for the construction of hydroelectric projects, pipelines and wind towers, create the holes in which to set utility poles and even sculpt ski slopes.
In 2017, we celebrated our 13th year of employee ownership and over 51% of the company being owned by our employees! What does this mean for our employees and customers? Employee-ownership results in a renewed and improved level of engagement by employees and service to our customers. Our employee-owners know our company’s success is directly tied to their own (and vice versa), so we take greater responsibility for quality, safety, production, results, and innovation.
