Commercial Laundry Systems Field Technician

A day in the life

You start your morning at home in the Nashville, TN area, review your dispatch in the mobile ticketing system, load up your company-provided service vehicle, and head to your first stop. It might be a fitness center, a hospital, or a motel—anywhere commercial washers, dryers, or ironers keep daily operations moving. You diagnose electrical and mechanical issues, install the right replacement parts, and clearly explain your work so customers feel confident and informed. Between calls, you log time, parts, mileage, and fuel with accuracy. You stay connected with the service manager, parts team, and vendors to ensure each repair is done right the first time. You keep tools and equipment organized and ready, and when large projects pop up, you pitch in with installations and deliveries. Throughout it all, you build strong relationships—because reliable service and a positive attitude are how we grow together.

The people who thrive at Alliance Laundry Systems Distribution are adaptable, self-motivated, and customer-obsessed. They take pride in their craft, bring a strong work ethic, and constantly look for smarter ways to help customers succeed.
