Field & Shop Service Technician
Job Type
Full-time
Description

If you like figuring out how things work — and why they don’t — this role might be a great fit.


We’re a family-owned industrial service and sales company with a small, hands-on team. We work on real equipment for real customers in power plants, water and wastewater facilities, and industrial plants. No two days look the same.


This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys mechanical work, basic electrical troubleshooting, and solving problems both in the shop and out in the field.


What You’ll Actually Do

  • Assemble, repair, and troubleshoot electric actuated valves
  • Assemble and calibrate instrumentation packages and electric actuators
  • Diagnose mechanical and electrical issues on customer equipment — in our shop and on-site
  • Support field service work, including installations, startups, and troubleshooting
  • Assist with steam system surveys and plant walk-downs
  • Take field measurements for mounting hardware and retrofits
  • Participate in customer demos and occasional training sessions
  • Help keep the shop and warehouse organized (shipping, receiving, inventory, tools)

What Makes This Role Different

  • You’ll work on live customer problems, not just bench work
  • You’ll see a wide range of systems — steam, power, water, wastewater, industrial
  • You’ll be trusted to ask questions, think critically, and figure things out
  • You won’t be stuck doing the same repetitive task every day
  • You’ll work closely with a small team that values initiative and curiosity

Travel Expectations

  • Travel is based on customer needs
  • Mix of shop work, day trips, and overnights
  • On average:
    • 1–2 overnight trips per month (sometimes more)
    • 1–2 day trips per month (sometimes more)

This Role Is a Good Fit If You…

  • Have solid mechanical fundamentals and basic electrical troubleshooting skills
  • Can read schematics, wiring diagrams, and dimensional drawings
  • Like working with your hands and getting dirty when needed
  • Ask good questions and enjoy learning how systems really work
  • Can work independently without constant direction
  • Are comfortable interacting with customers in the field

This Role Is Not a Good Fit If You…

  • Need constant step-by-step direction
  • Prefer repetitive, highly structured work
  • Don’t want field work or occasional travel
  • Avoid customer interaction

 Pay & Benefits

  • Starting around $20/hour (depending on experience)
  • Overtime potential
  • Company vehicle provided for field work
  • PTO, health insurance, and standard benefits
Requirements
  • High School diploma or equivalent
         (Technical school or relevant industry experience is a plus)
  • Mechanical aptitude with intermediate electrical circuit troubleshooting
  • Valid driver’s license
  • Ability to pass background checks, drug screening, and required safety training
