  • Be available for escalation calls, including occasional after-hours or weekend support when required.
  • Provide maintenance training to customers, technicians, and field service personnel.
  • Act as a knowledge multiplier by taking factory or division-level training, improving it, and transferring that knowledge to the field.
  • Help improve service procedures, troubleshooting guides, and customer support processes.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering Technology, Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent industry experience.
  • Minimum of 5 years of experience using, supporting, troubleshooting, or maintaining semiconductor handlers, die-level probers, wafer probers, or similar semiconductor automation equipment.
  • Experience supporting customer-facing technical issues in a field service, applications, equipment support, or technical escalation environment.
  • Ability to travel as needed for customer support, training, escalation management, or new product deployment.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience supporting active thermal control systems or thermal control units.
  • Experience with high- and low-temperature semiconductor test environments.
  • Hands-on experience with die-level probers, wafer probers, semiconductor handlers, or related mechanical test automation equipment.
