Ready to embark on a career where no two days are the same? As a Field Service Engineer for Andritz’s cutting-edge Thermal Drying Equipment, you’ll travel throughout the East Coast, working hands-on with state-of-the-art technology while building strong relationships with our customers. If you thrive on solving mechanical and process challenges, love the thrill of being on-site, and want to help revolutionize the drying equipment industry—this is the perfect role for you!

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Lead Installations: You’ll ensure the proper installation of our advanced drying equipment (Drum Dryers, Belt Dryers, and Fluid Bed Dryers), verifying everything runs smoothly and optimally.
• Optimize Performance: Fine-tune and optimize the equipment before performance testing, ensuring it exceeds customer expectations.
• Hands-On Problem Solver: Whether it’s mechanical, electrical, or pneumatic issues, you’ll troubleshoot and resolve problems quickly, keeping operations running efficiently.

• Customer Champion: Build strong, professional relationships with customers, providing training and technical assistance to ensure their success.
• Travel and Adventure: Get ready for extensive travel (90%-100%), visiting diverse job sites across the Southeast, meeting new people, and solving different challenges every day.

What You Bring to the Table:

• Mechanical Mastery: Strong mechanical aptitude and the ability to use hand tools, precision measuring instruments, and read engineering blueprints with ease.
• Process Knowledge: Familiarity with our drying equipment is a plus, but your ability to quickly learn and adapt is key.
• Tech-Savvy: Proficiency in Microsoft programs (Windows, Word, Excel), along with basic PLC programming experience (AB, Siemens S7, Modicon, etc.) gives you an edge.
• Sharp Troubleshooting Skills: You can think on your feet, especially in maintenance environments, and know how to define failure points and create corrective action plans under pressure.
• Electromechanical Expertise: An electromechanical technology degree or trade school certification is a plus, along with handheld vibration analysis experience.

What It Takes:

• Attention to Detail: Precision matters! You’ll conduct visual inspections and solve problems with a sharp eye and steady hand.
• Compliance & Safety: Stay up to date on OSHA requirements and wear the appropriate PPE for every job site you visit. Safety is always the top priority.

Who You’ll Work With:

• Customer Focused: Collaborate closely with clients, our Service Manager, Engineering teams, and other Andritz representatives to ensure every project is a success.
• Team Spirit: You’ll maintain professionalism and courtesy, whether working with internal teams or customers, helping to strengthen Andritz’s reputation for excellence.
