No, this isn’t one of those ordinary jobs.
Every day, people depend on Cummins to do some extraordinary things in some unusual places. Sometimes we’re under the hood of a truck lowering emissions. Other times we’re using generator exhaust to heat a swimming pool in China.
Over 30 affinity groups, numerous awards, executive leadership involvement and our rich history all add up to one thing. This is a work environment where doing something exceptional and thinking beyond your desk is more than part of the job. It is the job.
If you think you’ve never seen a company like Cummins before, just imagine what it’s like to work here.
We are an equal opportunity employer. M/F/D/V.
