Job Description:

Position Summary

• Seeking dependable contingent IT field technicians to install and commission Ecolab KitchenIQ Remote Equipment Monitoring equipment at Circle K / GetGo store locations.
• Technicians will work independently from standardized installation instructions to deploy temperature sensors and a cellular cloud connector, validate device connectivity through a mobile application, document the completed work, and obtain store-leader acknowledgment.
• The work is limited to installation and commissioning of REM devices.
• It does not include electrical work, construction, equipment repair, structured cabling, or ongoing break/fix support.

Primary Responsibilities

• Arrive at the assigned location within the scheduled service window and check in with the store leader using the provided authorization information.
• Locate and inventory the Ecolab installation kit and confirm sensor, cloud connector, thermometer, and consumable quantities.
• Survey the designated refrigeration and food-storage equipment and confirm which units require monitoring.
• Commission one cellular cloud connector and approximately 5 to 19 wireless temperature sensors, depending on the store configuration.
• Use the Ecolab KitchenIQ mobile application to select the correct store, register equipment, scan device QR codes, apply the required naming convention, and verify temperature readings.
• Temporarily position the cloud connector, validate connectivity for every sensor, relocate the connector when needed, and permanently mount it only after all devices meet the approved signal-strength requirement.
• Clean and dry mounting surfaces, apply sensors in accordance with the placement guide, and verify that sensors are securely attached.
• Complete the installation checklist, record arrival and departure times, document equipment quantities and exceptions, capture required photographs, and obtain store-leader acknowledgment.
• Walk the store leader through the completed installation and confirm that installed sensors are visible and functioning in KitchenIQ.
• Document unused equipment and follow the established FedEx return process rather than leaving surplus sensors at the store.
• Use the designated Microsoft Teams installation-support chat for technical questions, access issues, missing materials, or installation exceptions.

Required Skills and Experience

• Previous experience as a field service technician, desktop support technician, deployment technician, smart-hands technician, or low-voltage device installer.
• Comfortable using Android or Apple mobile applications, scanning QR codes, entering device information, and navigating location-based equipment records.
• Basic understanding of cellular or wireless signal strength, device commissioning, connectivity validation, and troubleshooting.
• Ability to follow detailed installation guides, equipment-placement photographs, checklists, and naming standards.
• Strong attention to detail when matching store numbers, device quantities, equipment names, and installation records.
• Ability to work independently in an active convenience-store and food-service environment without disrupting store operations.
• Professional customer-service skills and the ability to communicate clearly with store leaders and remote support personnel.
• Reliable transportation and willingness to travel between multiple geographically grouped sites.
• Ability to take clear installation photographs and submit electronic forms or work-order notes from a mobile device or laptop.

Technician-Provided Tools

• Smartphone with current Android or iOS operating system, camera, QR-code capability, and reliable cellular data.
• Laptop or tablet when required for work-order, email, or documentation submission.
• Standard field-service hand tools, including screwdrivers, flashlight, measuring tape, and basic cleaning supplies.
• Portable battery pack and charging cables.
• Paper towels or lint-free cloths for drying cleaned mounting surfaces.
• Appropriate closed-toe, slip-resistant footwear and any site-required personal protective equipment.

Installation Kit Includes

• Temperature sensors.
• Cloud connector.
• Power components.
• Mounting materials.
• Alcohol wipes.

Important Notes

• Technicians should not perform drilling, electrical work, construction, or other activities outside the approved installation guide.
• Any requirement for a step stool, ladder, specialized PPE, or additional mounting supplies must be confirmed before dispatch.

Training and Readiness

• Selected technicians must complete the recorded Circle K / GetGo installation training and review the current installation guide before being dispatched.
• Training covers KitchenIQ access, cloud connector commissioning, sensor registration and placement, connectivity validation, store checkout, photo evidence, equipment returns, and escalation procedures.
