# Field Operations Technician

Field Operations Technician Sector: Energy / Natural Gas, Work location: UK Job description Picarro is looking for a hands-on Field Operations Technician to look after our gas detection systems across the UK, working from a base in northern England. Our systems are fitted in survey vehicles that drive gas networks for the UK's major gas distribution companies. You will keep those vehicles on the road: visiting them, finding out what is wrong, swapping the faulty part and making sure the system is back up and running. This role suits a practical technician who wants to develop their skills, as well as an experienced field service engineer looking for a varied, independent role. Most repairs are hardware swaps, but finding the right fault quickly, recording it clearly, and spotting patterns across the fleet is where you will make the biggest difference. You will be comfortable with tools, confident with computers and happy to spend part of the week on the road. You will also be a trainer for our customers, helping them to get the most out of our equipment and digital tools. What you'll do Fixing systems in the field Drive to survey vehicles and customer sites across the UK to repair
