Royersford, PA | Mon-Fri, Day Shift

Your Launch into Technical Careers

Are you a recent graduate or trade school student looking to start your technical career? Do you want hands-on experience working with real industrial equipment, not just the classroom? Proconex is hiring entry-level Field Service Technicians to join our fast-growing team at Atlantic Valve Services (AVS).

This is a launching pad. We'll train you, mentor you, and give you the skills to advance into lead technician, supervisor, or sales engineering roles within a reasonable amount of time.

What You'll Do (80% field & assembly work)

You'll spend most of your time in the field and at job sites working with control valves, pneumatic systems, and diagnostic equipment. Your responsibilities include:

Assemble control valves, regulators, and automated valve systems at our Royersford facility and customer locations
Perform diagnostic evaluations, calibration, and installation of industrial control systems
Troubleshoot and commission equipment at customer sites
Collaborate with experienced technicians, sales engineers, and customer service teams
Support skid assembly and mechanical equipment projects
Prioritize safety and maintain professional work standards

Be honest with yourself: This job is physical, outdoor-focused, and hands-on. You'll work in all weather conditions. If you want a desk job, this isn't it. If you're ready to build real technical skills, let's go.

What We'll Teach You (3-4 Month Training)

You don't need prior mechanical experience. We provide formal training in:

Valve assembly and industrial control systems
Pneumatics and automated systems
Diagnostic equipment operation and troubleshooting
Customer site safety protocols
Equipment commissioning and calibration

As you advance, you'll have access to Emerson factory training programs—industry-recognized certifications that open doors.

What We're Looking For

High school diploma or equivalent (or currently enrolled in/graduated from a trade or technical program)
Mechanical aptitude and willingness to learn
Physical ability to lift up to 50 lbs and work outdoors in all conditions
Ability to work independently in the field and collaborate with a team
Valid driver's license and clean driving record (required for field work)
