Hi all,
The posting below is for a field service technician to work on and install laser systems. While the location is listed on the Peninsula, since it’s a field service technician you will be traveling most of the time (even possibly internationally) so you wouldn’t have to do that commute most days.

It sounds as if experience with lasers is not as important as experience with CNC programming (G-code), troubleshooting, reading schematics, etc. This is a great opportunity for those who work well independently, like to travel, and enjoy being placed in new environments and meeting new people.
