  • Provide expert technical support and guidance to clients during and after installations.
  • Document all service activities, including troubleshooting steps, resolutions, and client feedback, in the company's CRM system.
  • Escalate unresolved issues to senior technical teams or engineering departments when necessary.
  • Maintain an inventory of spare parts and equipment, ensuring adequate stock levels for service calls.
  • Adhere to all company safety protocols and client site-specific security requirements during on-site visits.
  • Collaborate with remote support teams to share knowledge and best practices.
  • Ensure customer satisfaction by delivering timely and effective technical solutions.
Requirements
  • Proven experience as a Field Service Technician or similar role, with a strong focus on network infrastructure.
  • Solid understanding of networking protocols (TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP), routing, and switching concepts.
  • Experience with installation and troubleshooting of Cisco, Juniper, or similar enterprise-grade network equipment.
  • Proficiency in diagnosing hardware and software issues on various operating systems.
  • Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills.
  • Strong customer service and communication skills, with the ability to explain technical issues clearly.
  • Ability to work independently and manage time effectively across multiple tasks and locations.
  • Willingness to travel extensively as required by the role.
  • Relevant IT certifications (e.g., CCNA, CompTIA Network+) are a strong advantage.
  • Valid driver’s license and a clean driving record.
Benefits
  • Our client offers a competitive salary, a travel allowance, and performance-based bonuses.
  • We provide comprehensive health insurance, paid time off, and opportunities for professional development, including advanced certifications and training programs.
