• Physically assemble and install products within healthcare environments, including secure mounting on walls, carts, and other surfaces.
• Use power tools and fasteners for various surfaces (drywall, metal, tile, plaster, stone).
• Educate customer stakeholders on Daniels Health solutions and provide first‑class support during transitions.
• Build installation schedules considering hospital operations and access restrictions.
• Document challenges, incomplete items, and facilitate post‑installation handoff to Account Management and Field Service.
• Solo support for container relocations and small‑scale installations as needed.

Must‑Have Qualifications:

• Strong customer service, communication, and interpersonal skills.
• Highly organized with an analytical mindset and attention to detail.
• Ability to work independently, prioritize tasks, and meet deadlines under pressure.
• Intermediate Microsoft Excel and general PC skills.
• Willingness to travel 80%+ with overnight stays (40+ weeks per year).
• Experience using tools such as drills, screwdrivers, hammers, tape measures, and levels.
• Physical ability to lift up to 50 lbs., push/pull up to 1500 lbs., walk 20,000+ steps daily, and stand for extended periods.
• Live within a one hour drive to a major commerical airport.

Nice‑to‑Have Qualifications:

• Experience in healthcare environments, medical waste, EVS, or related fields.
• Advanced organizational and critical thinking skills.
• Ability to adapt quickly to changing situations and limited data.

Work Environment:

• Frequent air travel and overnight stays.
• Extended time on your feet in healthcare environments.
• Work from home office when not traveling.
• Must be willing to comply with vaccination requirements for customer facilities.

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

• Industry Leader: Over 20 years of excellence in medical waste management with top‑tier NPS and delivery‑reliability scores
• 401K Matching: 50% employer match on up to 6% contribution (up to 3% employer contribution), with match starting Day 1, 5 year vesting schedule
• Comprehensive Benefits: Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage effective Day 1; paid short‑term disability; company‑sponsored life insurance; and more.
