This role is a fully remote, field-based position responsible for delivering on-site customer support, equipment maintenance, and technical troubleshooting across an assigned geographic region. Field IT Service Technicians operate independently and are accountable for ensuring equipment uptime, customer satisfaction, and consistent, high-quality service delivery.
Technicians must meet all field-specific requirements, including technical proficiency, demonstrated field readiness, a clean driving record, and successful completion of any required exams, certifications, or licensing needed to perform field service work within their region.
As a Field IT Service Technician, you will perform scheduled service calls, emergency repairs, and equipment installations for equipment such as scales, slicers, ovens, wrapping stations, and packaging machinery commonly used in grocery stores, delis, and similar retail environments. In this customer-facing role, you will represent Sagent in the field and must demonstrate strong customer service skills, self-motivation, and solid mechanical and technical troubleshooting ability.
Reliable transportation is essential, as daily driving may account for several hours of your workday while traveling to customer locations within your territory. This position is assigned to a specific service region, generally centered around the primary city listed in the job posting. While most work will occur within this local region and surrounding communities, occasional travel outside the immediate area may be required based on customer demand, business needs, or regional coverage needs. Territory boundaries may shift over time, and specific details will be reviewed during the interview process.
Training will be provided by experienced Sagent technicians to help ensure you are fully prepared for field assignments.
Primary responsibilities include performing calibrations and preventative maintenance (PM) on weighing and wrapping equipment independently within your designated business area. You will also troubleshoot at the module level, leverage technical support resources as needed, and assist other technicians with installations, repairs, and projects. Full independent responsibility for complex repairs or advanced installations may not be assigned initially while you continue building experience.
