About Us:
Vital Vending Sales is the northeast’s #1 supplier of vending machines and related equipment. We take pride in delivering reliable, high-quality equipment & service and are looking for a motivated, detail-oriented Vending Machine Technician to join our growing team.
Experience is not necessary, but the right candidate possesses a genuine interest in troubleshooting, working with tools and fixing technical issues. For example, if you enjoy fixing cars or using tools in your spare time, you’re the right fit. If you’re not technically-minded this is not a good fit.
Job Overview:
As a Vending Machine Technician, you will be responsible for fixing and refurbishing vending equipment. Some of this work will be technical and tools-based, some will be refurbing, cleaning, and painting.
This role will be a combination of in-house work and work that requires travel to locations to fix vending machines and troubleshoot problems, as well as assisting with machine installations into commercial spaces and moving machines generally from location to location.
We are a small, growing company so flexibility is critical. What you’re focused on will change rapidly and regularly as the day-to-day is dynamic at this stage. Days can be chaotic and spent “putting out fires”. The right candidate is not deterred by change, takes initiative and works well with limited direction and supervision.
The ideal candidate is comfortable learning or has experience safely operating a commercial box truck for machine deliveries, but this is not absolutely necessary for the right candidate.
You must possess a valid driver's license and have a safe, insurable driving record.
Key Responsibilities:
Clean, prep, and paint vending machines, install vending machine decals.
Troubleshoot technical issues and repair vending machines to good working order.
Work regularly with small tools like screw guns, ratchet sets, nut drivers, etc.
Help install and set up new vending machines at client locations.
Troubleshoot and repair vending machines, identifying and resolving technical issues such as electrical, mechanical, or software malfunctions.
Maintain parts and tools inventory to ensure repairs and refurbs are successful.
Conduct yourself professionally both inside and outside the business.
Work efficiently to meet service, equipment delivery and repair deadlines.
Follow safety protocols and adhere to company guidelines while working at client locations.
Qualifications:
High school diploma or equivalent (technical training or certification in electronics, mechanics, or a related field is a plus).
Previous experience in vending machine maintenance, technical troubleshooting, or a similar role is ideal but not essential.
Strong mechanical and electrical troubleshooting skills.
Ability to work independently and manage time effectively.
Excellent customer service and communication skills.
Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation (company vehicle may be provided).
Ability to lift up to 50 lbs. and perform physical tasks as needed.
Flexibility.
What We Offer:
Competitive salary based on experience.
Paid time off (PTO) and holiday pay.
Opportunity to get in on the “ground-level” of a start-up business with tremendous upside
A supportive and dynamic work environment.
Flexibility
