**BW Field Service Technicians Keep the World's Packaging Lines Runnin** g

When a new packaging line needs to come to life, or a line is down and a customer is counting every minute, BW Packaging sends a Field Service Technician.

Field service team members are the experts on site. They bring new lines online, crack the problems others couldn't, train the people who run the machines every day, and hand off equipment running at full speed. You might support a can seamer at a brewery or a palletizer at a pet food plant.

Depending on the role, you may work regionally near your customers, deploy to large installations anywhere in the world, or build machines in our plants and follow them to the field. BW invests in your skills through hands-on and structured training, and as your skills grow, so does the work you take on.
