Service Engineer

Looking for a hands-on engineering role with real variety, technical depth, and the chance to work on truly unique products – without constantly living out of a suitcase? This could be the one.

We’re working with a world-leading engineering and manufacturing business specialising in sensor technology and scientific instrumentation – and they’re one of only two companies in the world doing what they do. Their solutions are complex, high-precision, and used across a variety of industries – and now they’re looking to bring a Service Support Engineer into their growing team.

This role is a great fit for a Field Service Engineer looking to reduce travel, or a Static/Workshop Service Engineer who wants more variety and technical challenge. You’ll be predominantly based on-site (about 75%), with some travel to customer sites (around 25%) for installation, support, and service.

You’ll be involved in everything from testing, diagnostics, repairs, and fault-finding, through to analysing system data and feeding insights back into the engineering team.

The business is looking for a dynamic, self-motivated individual who’s comfortable working independently as well as part of a collaborative team. If you’ve got a curious mind, a hands-on attitude, and you like solving tricky technical problems, you’ll fit right in.

And if you’re someone who enjoys tinkering, building, or experimenting with tech in your spare time – they’d love to hear about that too. This is a team that values passion just as much as experience.

What you’ll be doing as a Service Support:

Supporting and maintaining complex sensor-based instrumentation

On-site fault diagnostics and repairs, plus occasional field support (approx. 25% travel)

Analysing system performance data to identify and resolve issues

Collaborating with engineers to improve and evolve the product range

Recording service activities and maintaining accurate documentation

What they’re looking for:

Previous experience in a service, support, or test engineering role

Exposure to multi-disciplinary systems (electronics, mechanical, and software)

Experience with scientific instrumentation or high-tech equipment is highly desirable

Excellent problem-solving and communication skills

A motivated, proactive individual who thrives both solo and in a team

Any extra-curricular technical hobbies or side projects? Tell us about them!

This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a close-knit, world-class team working on technology that’s genuinely one-of-a-kind. If you’re looking for that perfect mix of hands-on engineering, product variety, and career progression – this is it.
