NOV

NOV is a US oilfield equipment and technology company headquartered in Houston, Texas, supplying drilling rigs and rig components, downhole tools, drill pipe, artificial lift, completion and production equipment and aftermarket services to the oil and gas industry. Listed on the New York Stock Exchange, it traces its heritage to 1862 and took its current form as National Oilwell Varco in the 2005 merger of National Oilwell and Varco International, with sites in the US, Brazil, Norway, India and Saudi Arabia. It hires assembly and shop technicians, welders and painters, quality, mechanical and robotics engineers, field service technicians, project managers and accountants.

About the Role

As an Electro Mechanical Service Technician, you will be part of our Aftermarket Field Service team, supporting the service, repair and commissioning of NOV Wireline equipment. Based primarily at our Kintore facility, you will also travel to NOV and customer locations globally, including offshore environments.

You will bring a strong electrical foundation while applying and developing your mechanical capability. Working across equipment that combines electrical and mechanical systems, you will diagnose faults, complete repairs and find practical solutions that help keep our customers' equipment operational.

About the Team

You will join a specialist Field Service team within our wider service organisation. While the role offers independence, particularly during field assignments, you will have access to experienced colleagues and wider technical and manufacturing support when required.

What You’ll Be Doing

This is a hands-on role where no two assignments are exactly the same. You may be troubleshooting equipment at our facility, supporting commissioning activities or responding to a breakdown at a customer location.

In the field, you will work directly with customers, understand their requirements and take ownership of finding effective solutions. This may involve diagnosing complex faults, identifying practical alternatives and coordinating the resources required to return equipment to operation safely and efficiently.

Why Join NOV?

This opportunity gives you the chance to broaden your expertise beyond a purely electrical role and develop your electro-mechanical capability while gaining exposure to specialist Wireline equipment.

You will have opportunities to work across different technical environments, gain international and offshore field exposure and build your customer-facing experience while continuing to develop your technical knowledge and skills.

What We Offer

You will be part of a global organisation where technical expertise, safety, quality and practical problem-solving are central to how we work. NOV provides opportunities for role-specific learning and development, including relevant technical training where required.

Diversity & Inclusion

At NOV, we are committed to creating an inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive. We value diversity in all its forms and believe that different perspectives drive innovation and success. We welcome applications from all qualified candidates regardless of gender, age, ethnicity, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law.

  • Service, troubleshoot, repair and commission NOV Wireline equipment at NOV and customer locations.
  • Diagnose electrical and mechanical equipment faults, identify defective components and implement effective repair solutions.
  • Read and interpret engineering drawings, diagrams, specifications and technical instructions to support accurate maintenance and repair activities.

  • Communicate directly and professionally with customers, understanding their requirements and providing clear updates during field service activities.
  • Inspect equipment to identify defects, faults and areas of non-conformance in line with applicable procedures and standards.
  • Complete accurate service reports, electrical surveys and other technical documentation following inspections, repairs and field assignments.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement, quality and on-time delivery initiatives across service and repair activities.
  • Work safely and in accordance with NOV health, safety, quality and environmental requirements.
  • Travel to customer and NOV locations internationally, including offshore environments, as business requirements dictate.
