Keep Equipment Running. Keep Patients Safe.

Are you a technically skilled and detail-oriented professional who takes pride in keeping medical equipment performing at its best? Do you thrive in a clinical environment where your work directly supports patient care? If so, we want you on our team!

Key Responsibilities

Preventive Maintenance (PM)
Perform scheduled preventive maintenance on assigned medical imaging and biomedical equipment in accordance with OEM-recommended procedures and PartsSource quality management system requirements.
Complete all required PM steps, calibrations, and safety checks without skipping or deferring items without Field Manager approval.
Document measured values (kV, mA, HU, compression force, etc.), consumables replaced, and findings on PM work orders with actual values — not pass/fail only.
Communicate PM findings to the facility department contact and Field Manager before departing the site.
Corrective Maintenance & Troubleshooting
Respond to equipment failure reports, perform systematic diagnosis, and execute repairs to restore equipment to safe, operational status as efficiently as possible.
Escalate to Field Manager immediately when a repair exceeds technical capability, requires scope expansion, involves a patient safety concern, or cannot be resolved within the response time standard.
Perform functional verification testing after every repair before declaring equipment returned to service.
Work Order Documentation & Compliance
Complete all required work order fields in the CMMS within 24 hours of job close, including: diagnosed fault, work performed, parts used (OEM part number, serial number, cost), verification results, and customer sign-off.
Ensure all documentation meets PartsSource / Duly QMS standards, TJC, ACR, and applicable accreditation requirements for medical equipment service records.
Maintain equipment asset records, service history, and calibration documentation in the CMMS in accordance with hospital and regulatory requirements.
Parts Management & Procurement
Identify required parts with correct OEM part numbers and submit orders through the approved procurement process. Do not procure parts outside of the approved process without Field Manager authorization.
Verify parts on receipt (part number, quantity, condition) and document all parts used on the corresponding work order.
Customer & Stakeholder Engagement
Communicate professionally with facility clinical staff, department managers, and radiology/biomedical leads regarding equipment status, repair timelines, and any impact to clinical operations.
Check in with facility point of contact upon arrival and obtain customer signature on every work order at close-out.
Represent PartsSource’s quality and service standards in every interaction with the facility.
Safety, Compliance & Continuous Improvement
Adhere to all applicable hospital infection control, radiation safety (ALARA), electrical safety, and OSHA protocols at all times.
Maintain currency of all required credentials, certifications, and facility credentialing system enrollment (e.g., Symplr, Intellicentrics, etc.).
Identify and report non‑conformances, near‑misses, and quality concerns to the Field Manager in support of the PartsSource’s Continuous Improvement / CAP Program.

What We’re Looking For

Technically Skilled & Diagnostically Strong – You troubleshoot systematically and have the hands‑on skill to repair complex medical equipment with confidence.
Detail-Oriented & Documentation Disciplined – You understand that a repair isn’t complete until it’s accurately documented. Your work orders are complete, legible, and filed on time.
Patient‑Care Focused – You recognize that every piece of equipment you service is connected to a patient outcome. You approach your work with that responsibility in mind.
Collaborative & Professional – You work effectively alongside clinical staff, communicate clearly under pressure, and represent the service team with professionalism at all times.
Compliance‑Minded – You follow processes, elevate when needed, and take accreditation and safety requirements seriously — not as bureaucracy, but as the standard of care.

2+ years of experience in biomedical equipment maintenance, medical imaging service, or clinical engineering in a hospital or healthcare facility environment.
Associate’s degree or higher in Biomedical Equipment Technology, Electronics, or a related field; or equivalent combination of military training, OEM technical training, and field experience.
