Mechanic: discover a profession undergoing rapid change

With safety always in mind, you will perform routine maintenance on vehicles on a daily basis and check that equipment is working properly (servicing, preventive and corrective maintenance, diagnostics, and necessary repairs). You will prepare vehicles for various technical inspections, detect, repair, and replace defective parts.

Being a mechanic at Transdev also means working as a specialist where you can develop your skills in electronics, electrical engineering, hydraulics, and pneumatics. Beyond mechanics, you must master the technical characteristics of vehicles, as well as those related to the energy transition underway in public transportation.

The main missions 

A mechanic’s duties vary depending on the type of vehicle or equipment they work on, but generally include:

  • Breakdown diagnosis: Identifying mechanical or electronic failures using diagnostic tools.
  • Repair and parts replacement: Performing repairs on engines, electrical systems, transmissions, and more.
  • Regular maintenance: Carrying out routine checks such as oil changes, inspections, and filter replacements.
  • Safety checks: Ensuring the vehicle complies with current safety standards.
