Industrial Water Treatment Field Service Technologist

Industrial Water Treatment Field Service TechnologistWhat a day looks like

You begin your day reviewing system trends from a customer site, then roll up your sleeves to tune a reverse osmosis skid and calibrate sensors on an ultrafiltration unit. By midday, you’re troubleshooting a process pump and verifying chemical injection rates. You close out with a concise technical summary for the client and a check on spare parts to keep their operation running flawlessly.
