What are the responsibilities and job description for the Tech Support Engineer / IoT Hardware / Electrical / Onsite in Fort Worth position at Motion Recruitment Partners, LLC?
A rapidly growing AgTech company is expanding its U.S. operations and is seeking a Technical Support Engineer to support a unique IoT-based platform used across agricultural environments. This is a high-impact role tied directly to the company's continued growth in a new market, supporting both customers and internal teams as adoption scales. The platform combines hardware, firmware, connectivity, and software to deliver real-time visibility and control of critical infrastructure.
In this role, you'll act as a key bridge between customers, engineering, and operations - diagnosing and resolving issues across both hardware and software layers. You'll support troubleshooting efforts related to device connectivity, system performance, and field-based installations, often working through real-world scenarios where environments vary significantly. You'll also collaborate closely with an international R&D team, contribute to product feedback, and help improve internal support processes as the U.S. team continues to grow.
The ideal candidate has a strong technical support foundation but is also comfortable working with physical systems - someone who enjoys digging into problems, understanding how things work, and guiding customers through solutions. This role requires a mix of software troubleshooting, hardware familiarity, and basic electrical understanding, particularly around wiring and system controls. A hands-on mindset and willingness to learn are critical, as the product is highly specialized and training will be provided.
This role is fully onsite, 5 days per week, in the Fort Worth, TX area, with occasional travel (up to ~20-30%) after the initial onboarding period.
