Electro-Mechanical Field Service Specialist

Electro-Mechanical Field Service Specialist

Imagine Mondays that start at the airport and Fridays that end back at home—most weekends yours. You thrive on solving tough electronics problems, meeting customers where they are, and keeping sophisticated systems running at their best across North America and select international sites.

A Day in the Life

You arrive onsite, uncrate a new system, and bring it to life—installing, commissioning, and calibrating it to exact specifications. You verify performance, guide operators through safe and efficient use, and document your work. When equipment misbehaves, you dig into electrical, mechanical, and software layers to isolate faults and resolve issues fast. Back home, you rotate onto remote support—answering hotline calls, offering technical guidance, and preparing for the next trip.

• Perform preventive maintenance and inspections to maximize uptime.

• Deliver professional, customer-first service and clear communication at every step.
• Complete detailed field service reports; track expenses; maintain accurate service records.
