Job Description

As part of the Thermo Fisher Scientific team, you’ll discover meaningful work that makes a positive impact on a global scale.

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, like protecting the environment, making sure our food is safe or helping find cures for cancer.

  • Experience developing technical documentation, service standards, and troubleshooting methodologies
  • Technical expertise in instrument maintenance, repair, and troubleshooting
  • Proficiency in conducting equipment installations, calibrations, and qualification protocols (IQ/OQ/PQ)
  • Experience with laboratory automation platforms and control software systems
  • Advanced knowledge of Microsoft Windows operating systems and standard office applications
  • Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
  • Strong customer service and communication skills
  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively
  • Fluency in English required; additional languages are an asset
  • Experience with quality systems (GMP/GLP) preferred
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and maintain detailed service records
  • Experience with performance tracking and reporting systems
