Job description

If you’re the kind of person who enjoys figuring out why something broke and fixing it before anyone else notices, this role is for you. As a Field Technician at PrototypeIT, you’ll be the go-to problem solver across a wide variety of client environments—jumping between troubleshooting networks, deploying new systems, and helping users get back up and running fast. No two days look the same: one minute you might be imaging machines or assisting with a new client onboarding, the next you’re onsite tackling a hands‑on issue that couldn’t be solved remotely. This role is perfect for someone who likes staying on the move, enjoys working directly with people, and takes pride in delivering solutions—not just fixes. You’ll play a key part in keeping our clients running smoothly while continuously building your technical skillset along the way.
