We’re looking for someone who can evaluate equipment condition, communicate findings clearly, and help keep the work organized.

• A valid driver’s license

Nice To Haves

• Experience leading technicians, coordinating site work, or serving as a customer’s main technical contact is strongly preferred.
• Experience with infrared, ultrasound, alignment, balancing, and online condition-monitoring systems is valuable; we do not expect every candidate to have worked with every technology.

Responsibilities

• Collect and analyze vibration and other machinery condition data on motors, pumps, fans, gearboxes, bearings, and related rotating equipment
• Identify developing faults and provide practical, well-documented recommendations
• Perform or support infrared thermography, ultrasonic inspections, lubrication analysis, laser shaft alignment, and precision field balancing, according to your experience
• Work with portable, continuous, and wireless condition-monitoring systems
• Communicate significant findings and equipment concerns promptly to the customer and RES
• Serve as the primary day-to-day contact for site personnel, helping coordinate priorities and follow-up work
• Help guide and support developing technicians while maintaining consistent work quality and safe practices
• Prepare clear reports and maintain accurate equipment history
