Job Description
Field Technician - Associate Level Entry-level field role with a structured path to leadership — and a total comp package that outperforms the market from day one. About the Role We are a national specialty contractor that performs precision chemical cleaning and passivation of high-purity fluid and gas systems for clients across pharmaceutical manufacturing, biotech, aerospace, data centers, and semiconductor facilities. Our technicians travel to client sites across the country and do hands-on technical work that keeps critical systems running. This is an entry-level position — but it's a serious one. You'll be trained in specialized processes most technicians never encounter, work alongside experienced leaders, and be on a structured track to advance quickly. What You'll Do Set up and operate specialty chemical cleaning equipment at customer job sites Work with chemical cleaning solutions under proper PPE and safety protocols Load, transport, and manage equipment using company vehicles (sprinter vans, trucks) Collect samples and document process results accurately Support the project team in delivering work safely and on schedule Operate forklifts and other material handling equipment as needed Maintain a clean, safe, organized job site (5S standards) Compensation & Earning Power Base pay is $21-$23/hr — but that's only part of the picture. Here's what actually hits your bank account: Up to $200/day per diem — every day you're on assignment, for food and lodging. Consistent, plentiful overtime on every project. Rental vehicle provided per job; on longer projects a company-paid passenger van is provided for the crew. Automatic 10% base pay raises at 6, 12, and 18 months — plus performance-based increases. Most team members hit +30% total growth within 18 months.
Result:
Your effective daily rate routinely outperforms traditional hourly roles that pay a slightly higher base but offer no per diem, no vehicle, and no structured raises.
