Industrial Compressor Field Service Specialist

Ingersoll Rand
Marlborough, MA

Are you the go‑to expert when machines won’t cooperate?

Do you thrive on diagnosing complex electro‑mechanical systems, reading wiring diagrams like a second language, and leaving customers confident that their compressed air systems are in top shape? If that sounds like you, this role in Marlborough, MA could be your next move.

Where and when you’ll work

  • Base: Marlborough, MA
  • Hours: Monday–Friday, 7:30 AM – 4:30 PM

  • Use precision instruments and your PLC skills to pinpoint faults and restore performance.
  • Lead or assist with pre‑commissioning, start‑ups, and installations—hands‑on, safely, and to customer specs.
  • Plan ahead with the Service Coordinator to ensure parts and materials are on hand.
  • Build customer trust by explaining Preventative Maintenance, Diagnostics, Audits, and Leak Detection programs that cut downtime.
  • Mentor apprentices and collaborate with fellow Field Service Technicians; communicate clearly in writing and in person.

Are these your strengths?

  • 2+ years of industrial/commercial mechanical troubleshooting.
  • Driver’s license held 12+ months with a safe record (no DUI in the last 5 years; no hit & run, license suspension, reckless/careless driving, or multiple preventable incidents in the last 3 years).
  • Willing to rotate on‑call after your first 90 days (24/7 for one week), as often as every 4 weeks or less depending on team needs.
  • Physically ready for the work: frequent use of hands/fingers; walking, stooping, kneeling; and lifting/moving per safety policy.
  • High school diploma or equivalent.

Technical fluency we value

  • Schematic/diagram reading
  • Advanced network installs (IMMC/ASC, X Series Automation)
  • Basic vibration diagnostics
  • Air quality and treatment fundamentals (compressor/dryer)
  • Microsoft Office; smartphones/iPads; network‑based tools
  • Cost‑efficient business travel practices

Bonus points

  • Industrial air compressor maintenance experience
  • EPA Certification
  • Veterans/Active‑Duty Military encouraged to apply

What you already know your way around

  • PLC troubleshooting and programming
  • Electrical, mechanical, and equipment troubleshooting
  • Pneumatics and hydraulics
  • 120/208/240/480‑volt systems
  • Motor replacement, repair, and maintenance

Tech you’ll work with

  • Variable Frequency Drives (VFD)
  • Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC)

Compensation & benefits

  • Hourly pay: $25.00 – $35.00 (full‑time, hourly)
  • Sign‑on bonus: $3,000

Final offers reflect a range of factors: your skills, experience, training, licenses/certifications, and broader business needs. The posted range does not include potential geographic differentials. We rarely start new hires at the top of the range; each case is evaluated individually.

Benefits include medical and prescription coverage, dental, vision, wellness programs, life insurance, a robust 401(k), paid time off, and an employee stock grant—so you can thrive in and out of work.
