  • Working closely with design and development engineers to improve equipment reliability and performance.
  • Supporting customers across the UK, Europe, North America and Asia.
The role involves a mixture of UK-based and international travel. Some trips will be planned well in advance, whilst others may arise at relatively short notice.
