Why This Role Exists
Our client, an established manufacturer of precision industrial tooling for the printing and packaging industry, is expanding its field service team. The company has relied on a single traveling technician for years and is now adding a second person to the team so the workload and travel are shared rather than resting on one person.
What You'll Do
- Travel to customer manufacturing sites to install, repair, calibrate, and maintain precision tooling and equipment
- Train plant operators on equipment use across shifts
- Provide technical consulting to customers on how to get the most out of their equipment
- Troubleshoot mechanical and basic electrical issues on-site
- Work primarily on one core product line, so once you learn it, the work becomes very consistent across jobs
Requirements
Must-Haves:
- 2+ years of experience in technical/mechanical service (HVAC, automotive, industrial maintenance, or similar hands-on trade)
- Strong mechanical aptitude — comfortable with hand tools, drills, and precision work
- Ability to read blueprints, technical drawings, or assembly diagrams
- Willingness and ability to travel approximately 75% of the time, generally Monday–Thursday
- Comfortable with occasional international travel (roughly once or twice a year)
Nice-to-Haves:
- Basic electrical troubleshooting knowledge (full training provided)
- Bilingual in Spanish
- Experience in printing, packaging, converting, or manufacturing environments
- Familiarity with CAD software (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or similar)
Culture and Work Environment
This is a small, family-run company known for flexibility and genuine care for employees, not a business that makes fast decisions to let people go. The office environment is open and collaborative, without high-walled cubicles or closed-door offices. When you're not traveling, you're working alongside a hands-on, supportive team.
Compensation and Benefits
- Up to $70,000 annually, depending on experience
- 100% employer-paid medical, dental, and accident insurance (employee-only; partial coverage for dependents)
- HSA with employer contributions
- 401(k) with up to 6% match
- Life insurance, short- and long-term disability
- Paid vacation, sick time, and holidays (negotiable based on experience)
- Company card for travel expenses; per diem for meals; you keep your own travel rewards points
- All tools provided
- Loose commission structure on large equipment sales
