• At least 5 years of experience servicing industrial X-ray systems or similar high-voltage equipment.
• Experience with at least one of the following: microfocus X-ray sources, high-voltage generators (90kV–450kV), or LINAC systems.
• Strong electronics troubleshooting and electromechanical systems background.
• Ability to read electrical schematics and technical drawings and use diagnostic tools such as oscilloscopes and multimeters.
• Knowledge of radiation safety practices and regulatory compliance.
• Ability to travel up to 50%, including internationally.
• Ability to lift 55–65 lbs and comfort working around high-voltage and radiation-generating equipment.

Nice To Haves

• NDT, DR, or CT inspection system service experience.
• Experience with vacuum systems, including turbo and roughing pumps; motion control or industrial automation.
• Knowledge of CE/UL compliance processes or LINAC RF/accelerator systems.
• Microcontroller or embedded systems troubleshooting experience.

Responsibilities

• Install and commission X-ray inspection systems, including setup, beam alignment, geometric calibration, and detector integration.
• Commission microfocus open-tube systems, including tube conditioning and vacuum validation, and configure imaging software and CT acquisition.
