Home-based, northeast U.S (Boston, Philadelphia area, NY/NJ)

 

ED-XRF field services engineer will work with customers in training, troubleshooting, optimizing of their analytical instrumentation and associated software systems.

 

Work with those customers will be a combination of phone, remote/on-line support and conferences (i.e. Zoom) and on-site visit.

 

• Use your in-depth knowledge of the application energy dispersive XRF technology in a laboratory and in a plant setting (i.e. hand held devices) in your work
• Specific work includes:
  • Set-up and/or troubleshooting of a customer’s systems - hardware and software
  • Perform onsite repairs and/or maintenance as is possible with systems (or send units or components back for repair)
  • Training of customers – new users, existing users on new features, etc
  • Have the patience not to get visibly upset with uncooperative, willfully ignorant or otherwise just plain annoying customers and still get the job done

• Excellent knowledge of the "why": appropriate theoretical and practical knowledge of chemistry, materials science, physics, etc.

• Must have experience with:
  • XRF analysis; really prefer ED-XRF over WD-XRF
  • Chemistry – elemental analysis
  • 5-7 years of appropriate experience
