Service Engineer-Remote - Gpac
Knoxville, TN
About the Job
One of my best clients, a leading CNC cutting tool manufacturer, is seeking a Service Engineer. A bit about the company:
For over 40 years, they have been a leading producer of cutting machine tools worldwide, making top-of-the-line CNC machines, 5-axis, etc.
They are recession-durable (they didn't lay off anyone during COVID-19).
The role is remote. It's conceivable to be gone on Monday and back by Friday at 5 p.m., but if you're near a dense metro area, travel is mainly within a one-hour radius of the metro area, rarely out of state, so they are likely home most nights. They don't work weekends or holidays. Company truck, laptop, toolkit, iPad, Amex.
Some Service Engineers, 5-10 years in, salaries got escalated, are making $160k+ because they are self-initiating. They are more likely to research than make a call and jump in from start to finish independently. They are passionate about self-improvement and read pertinent articles. If there's a customer challenge at 5 p.m., do you crack open a manual or a beer?
They are looking for mechanical competence, the kind you're born with. Sure, if you know what a spindle is, what the difference is between a floating ball screw and a stretch ball screw, you changed out a drive or a servo motor, have 5-axis repair experience, and have knowledge of headstock alignment and leveling, you're the guy.
