Richmond, Virginia - 2024-03-25 Associate Service Engineer

If you’re one to rise to a challenge, this opportunity is for you. Your resume is great, but we also want to know what drives you. We’re big on culture and look for employees who can grow both professionally and personally with us.

At TSP, we make sure our employees have the opportunity to build fulfilling careers. Why? Because if our people aren’t taken care of, our customers won’t be either. TSP was founded on the belief that our product is our people, and our commitment to those employees is written into our company values.


SCOPE OF WORK

Once fully trained, the engineer will provide maintenance and hardware support for multiple data storage platforms (i.e., NetApp, Pure Storage, Rubrik, etc) and occasionally assist with other IT projects. This is a home-based field role, and you will be driving your own vehicle to various business sites for service delivery regularly (business mileage reimbursed).

The ideal location of the candidate is in Richmond, VA to be close to the main customer base in the area, but we will consider other locations in very close proximity (within a 10-mile radius preferably). We will also consider an entry-level, tech-savvy candidate with no IT work experience if they meet all other requirements – paid training is provided.


THESE ARE THE JOB DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF AN ASSOCIATE SERVICE ENGINEER:

  • Provide hardware support services for data storage equipment
  • Maintain equipment, including troubleshooting and following product repair action plans (disk/controller swaps, etc.)
  • Act as smart hands with direction from a support center
  • Assist with installations (unboxing, lifting, racking/stacking, installing, etc.)
  • Schedule service calls and coordinate the delivery of parts
  • Interact with IT customers, TSP technical team members, and external support organizations
    • Impact extends to customer technical representatives, including systems administrators and technical managers
  • Travel for formal and informal training and getting certified to deliver installations and higher-end activities
  • Maintain flexibility to travel outside of the coverage area when required
  • 24/7 on-call rotation availability
  • Weekend and evening work are required, as are occasional holidays
    • TSP provides support to our customers on a 24/7/365 basis

YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO HANDLE EVERYTHING ABOVE BECAUSE YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE LIKE:

  • Must be tech-savvy and exposed to hardware troubleshooting or installation experience (in work experience, military experience, a gamer that has built computers, or just the “go-to” person that all your friends/family go to for technical help!)
  • Education: degree in computer science, information technology, or any technical field preferred
    • Minimum of high school diploma or GED
  • Must understand Microsoft Outlook and demonstrate good professional communication skills (phone / email / messaging / in-person)
  • Exposure to data center environments is preferred but not required
  • Positive attitude, professional, self-motivated, and fast learner
  • A strong sense of urgency, time management, and customer-facing skills are required
  • Must have a general understanding of Microsoft Outlook and demonstrate superb communication skills (phone/email/in-person)
  • Must be reliable, proactive, and possess the ability to take ownership of multiple engagements
  • Good job stability must be reflected on resume

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THIS ROLE:

  • Must have reliable transportation and a valid driver’s license (business mileage reimbursed)
  • Must be able to lift and install equipment (up to 75 pounds) into customer racks
  • Candidates must be authorized to work in the United States (no sponsorship available at this time)
