Thermo Fisher Scientific, a world leader in its field, supports cutting-edge science in Japan's materials science and electronic device research and development through its Japanese subsidiary. The role involves regular maintenance and troubleshooting of electron microscopes, X-ray photoelectron spectrometers, and electrical failure analysis equipment to maximize their performance, including the replacement of consumables and diagnostics, as well as addressing software and hardware issues. Additionally, it includes the installation of electron microscopes, X-ray photoelectron spectrometers, and electrical failure analysis equipment, from planning to installation, considering product specifications during the introduction of new equipment, and supporting layout considerations at customer sites alongside sales. Key attractions of this position include no night shifts or sudden calls, with more than 122 annual holidays and weekends and public holidays off. Customer inquiries are centralized at a reception center, so there are no direct contacts during holidays or late at night. Moreover, cases are distributed considering each engineer's schedule, preventing any one person from being overwhelmed. The support system is also robust, with over 900 units of our products currently operating in Japan.
