Job description

The Opportunity:

McCrometer is seeking a full time Field Service Engineer I to join our team! This exciting opportunity is anticipated to be 20% remote/work-from-home with 80% of the time completing field work in Southern Nebraska / around McCook, Alma, Holdredge and Imperial, NE area. Due to our comprehensive training and team-oriented work environment, travel out-of-state and out-of-country may be required occasionally throughout the year.

If you have great customer service skills and are mechanically inclined, and you want to find yourself in a supportive environment that challenges you, rewards you for high performance, and you are looking for a place to grow, this could be the job for you!

What Will I Be Doing?

With standard working hours being 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday, you’ll provide technical support and troubleshooting assistance to customers both over the phone and in the field. When working from your home (20% of the time), you’ll spend your days on the phone with customers to support and troubleshoot the design, construction, installation, maintenance, repair, and operation of our instrumentation. The rest of your time (80%), you’ll travel to the customer’s location (either in your own vehicle with fuel/mileage reimbursed or by air) to provide hands‑on support for installation or diagnostic/repair work.

When traveling for work, you can anticipate occasional overnight stays at company‑approved hotels (employee safety is one of our topmost priorities!). Sometimes you will see an overnight here‑and‑there, other work assignments may require overnight stays around one week.

What Qualifications Do I Need?

• Mechanical skills and/or experience is a must – we especially want to hear from you if your background also includes electronics or telemetry!
• Strong customer service skills.
• You have a valid Driver’s License and clean driving record.

What Will Make Me Stand Out?

• You have previous Field Service experience.
• Your background includes working with irrigation pipelines or pump controls.
• Proven ability to self-manage and take initiative; you are resilient, resourceful, and an expert at managing a busy workload with competing priorities.

The Perks:

• Work-from-home 20% of the time, travel/work in the field 80% of the time.
• Fuel/Mileage reimbursed for travel, cell phone, corporate credit card, and full benefits starting your first day, including medical/dental/vision, and 401(k) with employer matching.
• Lots of independence with a seriously supportive team and manager!
• Comprehensive training that includes on-the-job mentorship through more senior coworkers.
• Fantastic opportunity to travel and build your professional network!
• Lots of growth and development opportunities available!
