- Troubleshoot tool, sensor, and telemetry issues under operational time constraints
- Support pulse and/or electromagnetic (EM) telemetry operations, including dual telemetry systems
- Maintain detailed documentation, job logs, and post-run reporting
- Collaborate with rig crews, directional drillers, and client representatives to optimize drilling performance
- Ensure compliance with all safety policies, procedures, and regulatory requirements
- Assist in monitoring vibration, shock, and downhole dynamics in challenging well environments

Required Qualifications & Experience

- 1–3+ years of MWD field experience (entry-level to mid-level depending on role)
- Working knowledge of MWD tools, sensors, and telemetry systems
- Experience with pulse and/or EM telemetry systems
- Strong understanding of drilling operations and downhole environments
- Proven ability to troubleshoot technical issues in real-time field conditions
- Willingness to work rotational schedules and remote drilling locations
- Strong attention to detail, reporting accuracy, and documentation skills

Preferred Skills & Experience

- Dual telemetry experience (Pulse/EM)
- Experience in horizontal and extended-reach well profiles
- Exposure to vibration, shock, and drilling dynamics monitoring tools
- Technical diploma, electronics background, or engineering degree
- Experience working in unconventional shale plays

Competitive salary, commensurate with experience.

The MWD role is open to both contractors and full-time employees, based on experience level and mutual agreement.
