About The Position

Earth Fare is seeking a reliable, hands-on IT Field Technician to keep our stores and corporate locations running smoothly. In this role, you will travel to retail locations across our footprint to install, maintain, and repair critical hardware — including point-of-sale systems, desktop computers, printers, and network equipment that directly support daily store operations. This is a mobile, field-based position with significant travel (typically 70-80% of the time). You will work independently at store locations while collaborating closely with the broader IT team on projects, escalations, and urgent repairs. The role includes a shared on-call rotation and occasional after-hours work for emergencies or time-sensitive maintenance. If you enjoy variety, working directly with store teams, solving problems on-site, and seeing the immediate impact of your work, this is an excellent opportunity to join a mission-driven organization helping people live healthy lives.
