Field Service Technician V - Deployable

Field Service Technician V

Do you excel at solving complex problems, providing support, and ensuring technology performs where it matters most? Are you eager to work hands-on with cutting-edge UAV platforms while fostering growth through training and mentorship? If this resonates with you, we have the perfect opportunity. As a Field Service Technician V, you won't merely be repairing hardware — you'll play a pivotal role in supporting mission-critical unmanned aerial systems, building trust with clients, and empowering end users to excel in the field. From software updates to hands-on repairs, you will ensure our UAV platforms remain mission-ready and operational. This role is high-impact and people-focused, blending technical skills with real-world application. Your ability to mentor, troubleshoot, and collaborate will be highlighted daily. Additionally, you will have the unique experience of living and working in the United Kingdom for a year, adding an international dimension to your career.

Key Responsibilities:

• Support the operation, maintenance, and repair of UAV systems and associated technology (hardware and software).
• Install and integrate systems at field/customer locations.
• Troubleshoot complex issues to ensure smooth system operations.
• Provide hands-on training and mentorship to users and team members.
• Monitor system status, manage upgrades, and assess field performance.
• Represent our brand with professionalism and confidence in all customer interactions.

Why This Role Stands Out:

• Directly engage with Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) platforms.
• Gain international field experience by living in the UK for 12 months.
• Be part of a mission-driven, close-knit team where your expertise and insights are valued.
• Utilize your technical skills to support and uplift both people and technology.
• Apply your talents across various disciplines — electrical, network, software, and systems integration.

Qualifications You Must Have:

• High school diploma or GED equivalent, and typically 10 years of relevant experience and 2 years of experience in a lead role. A higher-level degree may substitute for experience. Related experience may be considered in lieu of required education.
• Active Top Secret U.S. Security Clearance.
• Willingness and ability to relocate to the UK for one year.
• Strong troubleshooting skills with a solid understanding of electrical wiring, schematics, and system diagnostics.
• Experience with Ground Control Stations (GCS) or similar technology.
• Familiarity with technical certifications such as Security+, Network+, CCNA, or A+.
• Ability to pass a pre-deployment medical examination and meet DoD/Combatant Command deployment criteria.
• Valid passport and ability to obtain international visas as needed.

Qualifications We Prefer:

• Associate's degree in a technical field.
• Experience with FCC/FCC GROL.
• Familiarity with multimeters, signal generators, and spectrum analyzers.
• Background in defense, aerospace, or the military.
