How to get into commissioning/FSE as a maintenance technician??

Hello, im a lowly ET from Spain working maintenance at a heavy industry plant with 1 yoe (incl. my 2-year degree's apprenticeship period here, around 8 months), and while I'm already making above the sector average, I want to chase that per diem and OT, how does one even get into commissioning or field service work for an OEM, SI or staffing agency?

Is it more of a university eng job or is it just that Spain's unemployment is too high for me to get a junior position?? There are barely any job postings (linkedin job browser sucks ass big time) and those few ones have 100+ applicants, rather discouraging.

Tysm, I'd appreciate any type of response or feedback!
