Teledyne TapTone is a global leader in container inspection technology, delivering innovative solutions that help food, beverage, and consumer goods manufacturers ensure product integrity and quality. For more than 50 years, TapTone has pioneered advanced inspection systems—including leak detection, seal integrity testing, and fill-level verification—engineered for high-speed production environments. Headquartered in North Falmouth, Massachusetts, TapTone combines deep engineering expertise with a customer-first approach as part of Teledyne Technologies.

Position Overview

TapTone Service Technicians are the backbone of our installation, technical support, and maintenance operations. In this customer-facing role, you will diagnose, service, install, and support TapTone inspection systems at customer facilities across North America and, on occasion, internationally. You will work hands-on with sophisticated electro-mechanical equipment, ensuring optimal system performance while delivering a seamless customer experience from installation through ongoing service and repair.

The ideal candidate will be located in the Northern U.S. Corridor or Eastern Great Lakes Region. This position requires regular travel to customer sites and trade shows (approximately 60-80%). The successful candidate must be able to travel and obtain a U.S. passport.

  • Ensure compliance with all health and safety regulations during service activities
  • Prepare service reports detailing activities, findings, and equipment performance
  • Recommend system improvements, upgrades, or enhancements to improve performance and reliability
  • Due to the type of work at the facility and certain access restrictions, successful applicants must be a “US Person” (US Citizens, US Nationals, lawful permanent residents, asylees or refugees)
