Field Trainee Technical Support Engineer for GPS machine control

Trainee Machine Control Support

The aim is to learn and provide support on GPS equipment used on Excavators, Dozers, Graders and a variety of construction equipment.

Machine Control is cutting-edge technology that precisely measures machinery using satellites in orbit over 12,500 miles away. We use a 3D model containing design data and compare the machine position in real-time, so the operator knows where to dig and at what depth. Simple in principle but this technology is shaping an industry by providing greater productivity and safety onsite.
