What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Field Service Engineer - VIDAR (EMD) position at ITT Inc.?
ITT is a leading manufacturer of critical components for harsh environments that serves fast-growing end markets in flow, aerospace and defense, energy and transportation. Building on our heritage of innovation, we partner with our customers to deliver solutions to the key industries that underpin our modern way of life.
Headquartered in Stamford, CT, we have more than 11,700 employees globally with operations in ~40 countries and sales in more than 125. At our core is our engineering DNA, with 1,280 engineers, 1,700 active global patents and ~51 manufacturing locations.
Our businesses are organized in three distinct segments, each based around our core engineering DNA:
Industrial Process: A global leader in centrifugal and twin-screw pumps and engineered valves for chemical, energy, mining, and industrial applications. Our leading brands include the iconic Goulds Pumps (with more than 175 years of history), Bornemann, Habonim, Engineered Valves, Rheinhütte Pumpen and Svanehøj.
Motion Technologies: A global leader in brake pads (ICE and electrified brake pads) and shock absorbers (energy absorption solutions) for transportation applications. Our leading brands include Friction Technologies, KONI and Axtone.
Connect and Control Technologies: A leader in critical applications for the aerospace, defense and industrial markets, including harsh environment connectors and control components. Our leading brands include ITT Cannon, Enidine, Aerospace Controls and kSARIA.
Position Summary
ITT is seeking a Field Service Engineer for VIDAR, a breakthrough in industrial motors. VIDAR is a patented motor with embedded variable speed intelligence built for harsh industrial environments. For decades, variable speed drives have been bulky, expensive, and hard to install, which stalled adoption at just 15 percent of rotating equipment. VIDAR changes that. It installs as easily as replacing a motor, cuts total installed cost by up to 50 percent compared to a VFD, and opens a $6B market with no direct competitor targeting industrial environments.
The Field Service Engineer will be responsible for providing technical installation and commissioning support to clients and service teams nationally with regards to smart motor equipment and application support, which requires up to 75% of time on outside and onsite work. This position is fully remote and qualified candidates may be located anywhere in the United States.
Essential Responsibilities
Industry Experience & Professional Background:
We aim to pay our ‘ITT’ers’ fairly and competitively in the locations that they live and work.

ITT offers a competitive salary and robust total rewards package, such as health insurance, 401(k), short and long-term disability, paid time off, growth and developmental opportunities, and other incentive compensation programs. Specific benefits are dependent upon whether or not the position is part of a collective-bargaining agreement. The salary offered to a candidate is based several factors such as candidate experience and qualifications, location, as well as market and business considerations.
