Backed by a legacy of excellence, we're trusted across industries for systems that perform under pressure and consistently exceed expectations. We're looking for a hands-on Field Service Technician with strong electrical abilities, who thrives in the field and takes pride in keeping critical equipment running at peak performance. In this role, you'll be the expert customers rely on-installing, maintaining, troubleshooting, and repairing Ingersoll Rand positive displacement (PD) blower systems, including controls and VFDs, directly at customer sites. You'll play a vital role in delivering responsive, high-impact service that supports customers' operational needs.


Your work won't stop in the field. You'll also install controls and wiring for PD blower systems at our facility, applying your electromechanical expertise across the full equipment lifecycle. If you already bring PD blower experience, you'll hit the ground running. If not, you bring a strong foundation in rotating equipment, motor and electrical troubleshooting, alignment, system-level diagnostics, and reading schematics and P&IDs-and the drive to master the rest. This is a role for someone who enjoys solving real-world problems, working independently, and making a visible impact every day.

• Perform control panel wiring and field terminations (24 VDC control, 120/480 VAC power, grounding/bonding, signal wiring, shielded cable practices); read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and P&IDs.
• Install and integrate instrumentation (pressure, temperature, vibration, flow, differential pressure transmitters, proximity sensors, limit switches) and calibrate as required.
• Execute mechanical service tasks (coupling alignment-laser or dial, belt tensioning, blower timing, bearing replacement, seal changes, lubrication, fastener torque verification).
• Conduct vibration and performance checks; identify root cause of abnormal noise, heat, vibration, or amperage draw (airflow restrictions, leaks, misalignment, cavitation, resonance).
• Troubleshoot system issues end-to-end across electrical, mechanical, and controls, including motor diagnostics (insulation resistance, megger testing, continuity), VFD/motor matching, and load-related faults.
• Perform field measurements and documentation (voltage/current, phase balance, harmonics, airflow/pressure, vibration readings) and produce detailed service reports with parts lists and recommended follow-up.

Requirements:

• High School diploma or GED
• 5+ years of relevant / equivalent technical experience: millwright, maintenance, engineering, field service.
• 2+ years of electromechanical experience
• Must possess a valid driver's license for a minimum of 12 months, with no major or frequent traffic violations including, but not limited to: DUI in the previous 5 years, Hit & Run, License Suspension, Reckless/Careless Driving or multiple smaller infractions or preventable collisions in the previous 3 years.

    Highly organized with the ability to work independently and as part of a team
  
  
  
  
• Professional Integrity: High moral and ethical standards with integrity consistently demonstrated
