DESCRIPTION:

We are seeking an experienced Field Service Engineer to join our BioProduction Service and Support team at Thermo Fisher Scientific. This is a full-time, primarily on-site role based in Elwood, Kansas, supporting advanced Single-Use Technology (SUT) bioreactor systems integrated with automation platforms within a GMP-regulated manufacturing environment.

This position is responsible to ensure contractual obligations governed by site specific levels of service as defined by customer. The role requires deep technical expertise, rapid response capability, and close daily collaboration with customer operations.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Serve as the dedicated on-site Thermo Fisher technical expert at the customer’s manufacturing facility in Elwood, Kansas

The role is a full-time, on-site position based in Elwood, Kansas, dedicated to supporting a key customer under a long-term Service Level Agreement (SLA). It requires immediate response availability to meet contractual service levels and is performed within a GMP-regulated biologics manufacturing environment.

  • DeltaV or similar DCS experience is preferred
  • Strong electronics and mechanical aptitude with the ability to diagnose issues down to the component level
  • Knowledge of Bioprocessing and Application Science is a plus
  • Excellent customer service skills and professional demeanor
  • Strong verbal and written communication abilities
  • Demonstrated problem-solving capabilities and analytical thinking
  • Proficiency with Windows operating systems, MS Office, and service management software
  • Ability to read and interpret technical diagrams, schematics, and documentation
  • Valid driver's license is required
  • Physical ability to lift up to 50 lbs and stand for extended periods
  • Experience with bioproduction equipment, particularly Single Use Technology (SUT) hardware and automation products
  • Availability to work flexible hours and respond to emergency service calls
  • Must be able to obtain necessary credentials to access customer facilities
  • Strong organizational skills and ability to manage time effectively
  • Collaborative mindset with the ability to work independently in the field
  • Willingness to support the full AMER region as the role develops
  • Self-sufficient; comfortable working independently; logical approach in setting work priorities

At Thermo Fisher Scientific, we provide our global teams with the resources needed to achieve individual career goals while helping to take science a step beyond by developing solutions for some of the world's toughest challenges in bioproduction and beyond.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
