Key responsibilities

• Provide technical support, maintenance and troubleshooting of Hamilton’s large-scale automated sample storage systems.
• Troubleshoot mechanical and electrical issues, identify root causes and determine appropriate solutions.
• Plan, execute and document service activities independently, including ordering and replacing parts when required.
• Respond to customer questions regarding product features, technical issues and upgrades.
• Perform initial triage of customer complaints and manage or escalate cases as appropriate.
• Act as a technical interface between customers and internal functions such as R&D, development and production.
• Provide technical guidance and user training to customers and contribute to a high-quality customer experience.
• Build professional, long-term relationships with customers and represent Hamilton in a professional manner.

The primary focus of the role will be supporting customers and field service activities in Oslo and the surrounding region.

What you bring

Experience from automation, robotics, mechatronics, refrigeration, medical technology, laboratory equipment or other complex technical equipment is advantageous. Experience from life science or Hamilton products is beneficial but not essential, as product-specific training will be provided.
