Job description

Your next shift could start here! You’re looking for hands‑on mechanical work that truly matters: safety, precision, operational pace, a strong team, and an organization that moves fast.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary aligned with the market, based on your experience and licence level.
• Bonuses tied to type courses / qualifications.
• Responsibility bonuses when you take on team lead or supervisory roles.

• Healthcare access even when things get busy: 24/7 telemedicine, wherever you are.
• Your future: retirement savings plan with company contributions.
• We invest in your growth: education reimbursement program to support ongoing training.
• We care about the people behind the employee: support programs for life events such as births, marriages, and bereavement.
• A team that also knows how to unwind: active social committee (happy hours, themed meals, social and sports activities).
