We are seeking a dedicated Field Service Technician to join the Texas team. This role involves providing technical support, maintenance, and troubleshooting services at manufacturing facilities to ensure optimal operation of semiconductor equipment.

The successful candidate will play a vital role in maintaining production efficiency and supporting customer satisfaction through expert technical assistance and proactive maintenance. This position does not require you to travel or work overtime.
We do ask you to help Oregon or Arizona sites occasionally, but very rare. The work hours are weekdays of 9:00AM - 6:00 PM (Usually not so much overtime), so this position is salary, not hourly. The salary is DOE, so please answer what you are expecting when you will apply.
