Job Description: At Thermo Fisher Scientific, you’ll do meaningful work that helps our customers make the world healthier, cleaner and safer. Our electron microscopy technologies support customers working at the forefront of scientific research, materials analysis and semiconductor innovation. As a Field Service Engineer II, you will support sophisticated Dualbeam electron microscopy systems used by customers for high-resolution imaging, materials analysis and advanced semiconductor applications. You will be responsible for installing, maintaining, troubleshooting and repairing complex instruments while serving as a trusted technical partner to customers. This role is well suited for someone who enjoys solving difficult technical problems, working independently and supporting highly advanced equipment in customer environments. A significant portion of the work may take place in semiconductor fabrication facilities and cleanroom environments.

What You’ll Do: Install, maintain, troubleshoot and repair complex Dualbeam electron microscopy systems at customer sites. Diagnose technical issues across electronics, mechanical systems, ultra-high vacuum systems, high-voltage components, controls and related instrument subsystems. Perform preventive maintenance and corrective service to help maximize instrument uptime and reliability. Respond to customer needs, including situations requiring short-notice support. Communicate clearly with customers regarding system status, troubleshooting progress, repairs and next steps. Train and support customers on safe and effective equipment operation. Read and interpret technical documentation, schematics and service procedures. Document service activities accurately and prepare detailed service reports. Work independently while partnering with technical support, engineering and other service colleagues when escalation is required. Follow all safety, quality and customer-site requirements. Support customer environments that may include semiconductor fabrication facilities and controlled cleanroom settings. Travel within the assigned territory, with primary support focused on customers in Minnesota and occasional support across the Central U.S.Minimum Education and Experience Advanced degree in Electronics, Engineering, Physics, Chemistry or a related technical discipline; orBachelor’s degree in a related technical field (or a combination of education and work experience) plus at least 2 years of hands-on experience installing, troubleshooting or repairing complex analytical, scientific or technical equipment.

Additional Requirements: Valid driver’s license. Ability to travel approximately ~50%, with the majority of activity expected to be local to Minnesota.
