Job Description: Applications Engineer - Food Equipment Company: Culinary Sciences Inc Location: San Jose, CA, Sacramento, CA Reno, NV metro areas We have an immediate opening for THE Applications Engineer who is self-confident, has experience with commercial kitchen equipment, is 608 Certified in refrigeration, and is able to follow instructions when nobody is watching. Our company manufactures commercial kitchen equipment, which consist of refrigeration, electronics, valves, motors, and vacuum components. It is easy to find people who can turn a wrench, follow simple instructions, or do the same thing all day long. What we need is somebody who can think on their own, but who can still follow instructions. We need an Applications Engineer who can understand how equipment works, and figure out why it stopped. This person will need to understand the importance of calling the customer before driving to their site, will report to the office after every service call, and can communicate coherently and precisely what they did and what parts they used. The ideal candidate will need to be able to diagnose or solve problems methodically and correctly. Applications Engineers normally work alone but have technical support from the office or the factory when needed. Training typically takes about 2-3 months, but you must have at least 3 years field diagnostic experience in at least one trade for the training to make sense. A clean driving record is also necessary.
