Industrial Field Service Mechatronics Technician

Step into a day on the road You start your morning reviewing the service queue and heading to a customer facility. Once on site, you observe machinery under load, listening and watching for telltale signs to pinpoint root causes. You isolate faults, dismantle assemblies to access defective components, and fine-tune control instruments. When parts are beyond recovery, you swap them out and bring the line back to life.In the afternoon, you coordinate with the customer’s maintenance team to execute scheduled preventive work. You might move from a PLC fault on one system to a high-voltage drive issue on another—troubleshooting electrical circuitry, mechanical systems, and fluid power components with equal confidence. If a custom part is needed, you set up a lathe, drill press, or grinder to fabricate it, and you’re comfortable striking a bead when a weld will keep production on track.Throughout the day, you document every step in service reports and in the customer’s management systems, adhere to site safety procedures and housekeeping standards, and model situational awareness to identify and correct unsafe conditions. You wrap up with a debrief, parts recommendations, and a plan for the next visit.
