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 routine maintenance, replacement of consumables, diagnostics, and 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, as well as supporting product specification discussions during the introduction of new equipment and assisting with layout considerations at customer sites. The position offers several attractive points: there are 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 currently operating in the country. While small cases are generally handled by one person, larger projects are managed by teams of 2 to 3 members. Engineers can consult with supervisors or senior colleagues at any time if issues arise on-site. The training program is comprehensive, with new hires accompanying seniors for 3 months to 1 year to learn the basics. Logical thinking training to deduce the causes of malfunctions is conducted to build a foundation as a service engineer.
