Mitsubishi Fiber Laser Field Support Technician
Department: Laser Service
Location: Milwaukee, WI
Your impact, from day one
Picture arriving at a manufacturer on Tuesday morning: their Mitsubishi laser is down, orders are waiting, and the team is counting on you. You walk the line, listen to the operators, study the wiring diagram, and trace the fault. By afternoon, the machine is cutting clean again—and production is back on track. That’s the difference you’ll make, week after week, traveling Monday–Friday to support customers across the U.S., with predominantly regional trips plus some nationwide and occasional international assignments. We’ll equip you with robust training so you can grow a lasting career in machinery and manufacturing technology.
