Technical Service Representative

RJ Young
Knoxville, TN Full Time
POSTED ON 9/9/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 11/9/2026

Summary/Objectives

Be the Hands-On Expert Keeping Office Technology Running

Are you mechanically inclined and enjoy working with your hands? Do you like solving real-world problems and being out in the field? We're looking for a Technical Service Representative (TSR) who thrives on hardware repair and customer support—not behind a desk, but in the real world, making things work. This is not an IT or help desk role. This is a field-based, hands-on hardware technician position focused on the physical repair and maintenance of multifunctional office equipment like copiers, printers, scanners, and fax machines. You'll also handle some basic network connectivity setup (print/scan), but your main job is keeping the machines running—and customers happy.

Essential Functions

Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.

This Role Is All About Hardware—You’ll:

  • Diagnose and repair mechanical and electrical issues on copiers, printers, scanners, and fax machines
  • Perform preventative maintenance and part replacements
  • Set up devices to print and scan on basic networks (connectivity knowledge helpful, but this is not an IT role)
  • Provide basic training to end users on hardware functions
  • Work independently in the field, while staying connected with your service team
  • Keep detailed service records and submit mileage, payroll, and call reports
  • Maintain a clean and professional appearance (yourself and your company vehicle)

Why You’ll Love It:

  • You're not stuck at a desk—you're out solving real problems hands-on
  • Every day is different, with new challenges and new customers
  • You'll get training and support to keep learning and advancing
  • You’re part of a team that values craftsmanship, service, and reliability

Work Environment

This role primarily operates in a professional office setting, where you'll regularly use standard office equipment such as computers, phones, printers, copiers, and fax machines. However, as a field-based technician, you'll also spend time at customer locations, which may include distribution centers, manufacturing floors, or warehouse environments. These settings can vary in noise level, temperature, and layout, so flexibility and adaptability are key.

Physical Demands

  • Must be able to drive long distances to service a device.
  • Must be able to carry a tool bag weighing up to 30lbs.
  • Must be able to lift to 100lbs to assemble some device components.
  • Must be able to move equipment (machines typically have casters) to access components.

Position Type/Expected Hours of Work

  • Full Time, Monday thru Friday 8am to 5pm, or 7am to 4pm.
  • Special circumstances may require the need to work late or on a weekend.
  • Occasional travel on weekends for manufacturer training.

Travel

  • Daily travel between customer locations.
  • Occasional travel to attend training or team meetings.

Required Education and Experience

High school diploma or equivalent.

Preferred Education and Experience

Two-year technical degree.

Prior electrical/mechanical/computer experience.
