Make your mark in measurement science
At VSC, LLC, people come first. When you bring your talents to our team, we back you with resources, benefits, and a career path designed for long-term success. As our Weights & Measures Field Calibration Specialist, you’ll be the trusted face of VSC in the field—delivering exceptional service, solving problems on the spot, and keeping critical weighing systems running with precision.
A day in your work boots
You load the truck before sunrise, confirm your standards, review procedures, and head to the first customer site. After a safety check, you calibrate a floor scale, log results in Modus-O, and brief the customer on findings and options. Midday, you assist a teammate installing a new weighing system, then finish the afternoon with preventive maintenance on a truck scale. Back at the shop, you tidy tools, update documentation, and swap notes with sales about a new lead you uncovered on-site. It’s hands-on, people-focused work that ends with real, measurable impact.
