About the role

Original posting from Accredited Labs via Greenhouse

OCS Technologies, an Accredited Labs company, is seeking an experienced Field Calibration Technician to perform on-site calibrations for industrial and commercial customers throughout Northeast Ohio and Western Pennsylvania. This is a hands-on position for someone who can work independently, troubleshoot measurement issues, and deliver accurate, timely service at customer facilities.

Our fieldwork spans a wide range of equipment and measurement disciplines. We are especially interested in technicians with strong electrical, temperature, force, and torque capabilities, complemented by experience in pressure, physical/dimensional measurement, or other calibration specialties. Candidates do not need expertise in every discipline but must bring proven technical depth and the versatility to support varied customer needs.

Location: Cleveland, Ohio

Territory: Northeast Ohio & Western Pennsylvania

Why Join OCS Technologies?

You will lead an established calibration team serving customers across Northeast Ohio and Western Pennsylvania, with the opportunity to improve daily operations while staying connected to technical work. OCS combines the relationships of a regional calibration provider with the capabilities and resources of the Accredited Labs national network.

Work Environment

This is a field-based role with regular travel to customer sites. You must be able to transport and handle calibration standards and equipment safely. Occasional overnight travel and overtime may be required depending on customer schedules and workload. A company vehicle, tools, and equipment provided

Pay & Benefits

Hourly pay is based on experience and technical capability. OCS provides a company vehicle, calibration tools, and equipment, along with a benefits package for eligible employees that includes health insurance, paid time off, and a retirement plan

What You'll Do:

Perform on-site calibrations, adjustments, and verification of customer equipment using approved methods, specifications, and calibration standards.

Support multiple measurement disciplines based on demonstrated competence, including electrical, temperature, force, torque, pressure, and physical/dimensional equipment.

Plan and execute assigned field work efficiently, coordinating with scheduling and customer contacts to meet service commitments.

Troubleshoot calibration and equipment issues; identify out-of-tolerance conditions and communicate findings in accordance with company procedures.

Accurately document measurements, test points, results, and equipment status in the calibration management system.

Maintain calibration standards, reference equipment, tools, and the company vehicle in good working condition.

Follow documented procedures, site safety rules, and applicable ISO/IEC 17025:2017 quality requirements.

Represent OCS professionally at customer facilities, answer technical questions within your expertise, and collaborate with the field service and laboratory teams.

What We’re Looking For:

Meaningful hands-on calibration experience with the ability to perform assigned work independently in customer facilities; this is not an entry-level position.

Practical knowledge in multiple calibration disciplines, with particular interest in electrical, temperature, force, and torque.

Ability to interpret manufacturer specifications, technical drawings, calibration procedures, tolerances, and measurement results.

Strong documentation skills, attention to detail, problem-solving ability, and a commitment to accurate, traceable results.

Good customer communication, time management, and organization skills in a field-service environment.

Valid driver’s license and driving record acceptable under company policy.

Experience That Stands Out:

Additional hands-on capability in hardness, optical/vision systems, physical/dimensional measurement, or other specialized calibration areas.

Experience in an ISO/IEC 17025-accredited calibration environment, including measurement uncertainty and traceability practices.

Experience with calibration management software, particularly IndySoft, and work for regulated or large industrial customers.
