What are the responsibilities and job description for the Field Service Technician position at Central Equipment Service?
Field Service Technician
We have immediate openings for Field Service Technicians who are self-confident, have experience with mechanical and hydraulic repairs, and are able to follow instructions when nobody is looking. Our company repairs vehicle service equipment, which means vehicle lifts, oil dispensing systems, air compressors, tire changers, exhaust extraction systems, and anything else you might find in an auto repair shop.
It is easy to find people who can turn a wrench, follow simple instructions, or do the same thing all day long. What we need are people who can think on their own, but who can still follow detailed instructions. We need people who can understand how equipment works, and figure out why it isn’t working. We need people who will call the customer before driving to their shop, who will report to the office after every service call, and who can string together more than 3 words to explain what they did and what parts they used. We also need people who can find what is broken, but more importantly, will learn why it broke.
Our technicians work a 4 day week. Their is an option to be dispatched from home, visit 4 or 5 customers a day, and diagnose or fix whatever they find. We bring everyone back to the warehouse once a week to re-stock trucks, do a little training, and tell tall tales about the tricky problems they solved. If you are not comfortable working on your own, this is not the right job for you. If you need to be shown how to do something 12 times before you can do it yourself, this is not the job for you. If you can use your bicycle repair skills to fix the landing gear on a B2 bomber, come talk to us.
In addition to working a 4 day week, technicians get overtime if they want it, receive 100% healthcare coverage, get a company truck, Can be dispatched from home, have 10 days PTO plus vacation, flexible work schedules, and start at $30-50 an hour with no direct experience. Those with experience will obviously make more.
Must have a clean driving record. Please send us a resume along with a cover letter that will let us know you read this ad and aren’t just sending the same response to every ad that had the word Technician in it.
