Where I learned how to coordinate a crew by ordering supplies and making sure they had the opertunity to finish there operation while working with the newer guys on a different location. This alowed me to grow and develop as a leader and coworker while learning how to notice bids and request for the consumer for the job to be completed and how for my manager. This job taught me to always be prepared before tower and make sure everyone has the right tools for the job and the safety equipment to complete the repairs as efficient as possible.

My knowledge of AAR, FRA, and DOT OSHA regulations—along with welding, blueprint reading, and metal fabrication—positions me well to meet the repair and compliance needs of your operation. I bring strong written and verbal communication skills, computer aptitude, and the flexibility to work varied shifts, including weekends. I’m physically capable of climbing ladders, working at heights, entering confined spaces, and wearing safety equipment when required.

Union Tank Car Company’s reputation for safety and reliability in the railcar industry is what draws me to this opportunity. I’m eager to bring my work ethic, field experience, and technical capabilities to a team that plays a critical role in keeping rail operations running efficiently.

Thank you for considering my application. I welcome the opportunity to speak with you in more detail about how I can contribute to your team. I am available for an interview at your convenience.
