Laboratory Instruments Field Support Engineer (Remote)

Be the Reason Science Stays on Schedule

Imagine walking into a busy lab in the Southeast. An instrument is down, experiments are paused, and the team is counting on you. You quickly diagnose a fault, replace a component, verify performance, and train the staff on best practices—all while upholding LECO’s ISO standards. That’s the kind of impact you’ll make every day at LECO, a family-owned leader in laboratory instrumentation for over 80 years.
