Field Service Engineer Mechatronics (Atlas Systems)

Do you know how it feels to be truly invaluable? Our Field Service Engineers do!

As a Field Service Engineer Mechatronics at JBT Marel, your primary responsibility is to install, maintain and optimize our Atlas live bird handling systems at our customers’ sites. These highly mechatronic systems combine mechanics, pneumatics, hydraulics, electrical engineering and controls, making your role a unique blend of hands-on technical work and customer interaction.

On a daily basis, you will:

• Prepare and execute installation projects of Atlas systems.
• Conduct service and maintenance visits to ensure uptime and reliability.
• Troubleshoot complex mechanical, electrical and controls-related issues on-site.
• Lead and coordinate local employees in larger installation projects.
• Keep in touch with, and report progress to, the customer.
• Train operators and maintenance staff in the use of our systems, and provide structured feedback to R&D and colleagues.

You will be part of a team of experienced engineers who share knowledge and support each other, both on customer sites and from the office.

Since this is a global role, you will travel internationally (~50–60% of your time). We plan projects carefully so you can also enjoy time at home with friends and family—taking into account your holidays, important events and personal plans.

To become a true specialist on Atlas, we also schedule time for:

• Preparing your upcoming projects and reporting on completed ones.
• Personal and technical training, both in the office and in the field.
• Regular alignment with your manager and the engineering team.
