I’m partnering with an established industrial machinery manufacturer looking to add an experienced Service Engineer to its U.S. team.
This is a hands-on opportunity for someone with a strong mechanical background to work on complex precision machinery used across rail and industrial manufacturing environments. The role covers installation, startup, troubleshooting, maintenance, rebuilds, and customer support across the U.S. and internationally.
Key Responsibilities
- Install, start up, service, maintain, and repair precision industrial machinery.
- Troubleshoot mechanical systems including gears, belts, pulleys, pistons, rams, lubrication systems, bearings, and alignment.
- Diagnose and repair hydraulic systems using hydraulic schematics.
- Perform machine setup, calibration, testing, and operational checks.
- Support the startup and debug of newly manufactured and rebuilt machines.
- Identify mechanical faults and determine the most effective repair solution to minimize downtime.
- Support electrical troubleshooting involving motors, sensors, switches, and associated machine components.
- Work directly with customers to resolve equipment issues and provide technical support.
What We’re Looking For
- 2+ years of experience servicing, maintaining, rebuilding, or commissioning industrial machinery, or a relevant technical degree.
- Strong mechanical troubleshooting and hands-on repair experience.
- Experience working with hydraulics, mechanical drives, alignment, lubrication systems, and rotating equipment.
- Ability to read mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical drawings and schematics.
- Strong understanding of how mechanical and electrical systems work together within industrial equipment.
- Strong customer-facing communication and problem-solving skills.
- Self-motivated and comfortable working independently in the field.
- Ability to travel approximately 80–90%, including domestic and international travel.
Preferred Experience
- Background with machine tools, CNC machinery, rail equipment, heavy manufacturing, or industrial machinery.
- Experience rebuilding, installing, or commissioning complex mechanical equipment.
- Basic PLC or ladder logic troubleshooting experience is a plus, but not essential.
What’s on Offer
- Full medical/healthcare benefits.
- Extensive domestic and international project exposure.
- Opportunity to work on highly specialized industrial machinery.
- Strong technical development and long-term career progression.
